Dark
Warning. This novel is VERY dark. I almost didn’t venture past the second chapter, but I’m glad I did. Two VERY broken characters who find in each other a kindred soul.

I bit slow getting to the point but overall a decent read.
Murder, mystery, love, and history!
"Dark Desires," by Eve Silver is a lovely read that will keep you wanting more! The main character, Darcie Finch is left with nothing. On a cold, rainy night, with nothing left to lose, she walks through the fence of Dr. Damien Cole. She begins work as a servant, only later to be asked to help Dr. Cole with his medical research.
Soon she finds herself attracted to Dr. Damien Cole. The only reason why Darcie will not act upon her attraction to him because of his dark secret. Darcie finds out that he is dissecting bodies from the University in order to learn more about the human body. Even though being a doctor and learning about human body through death, the issue is that young "ladies of the night" are being killed by the work of someone with medical training.
Is Dr. Cole killing "the ladies of the night" and dissecting their bodies as a way to hide his deep dark secret??

The heroine is painted as a realistic optimist, and it works. She looks for the good in people, and sometimes that works against her. There are times I didn't quite buy it, and yet, her characterization was strong enough for me to say "yeah, that's just who she is." She's that character in the story that deliberately walks into danger.
I did figure out about 3/4 the way through who the true villain was, but the author left several options to be considered along the way.
There were a lot of moans and groans that distracted me from time to time, places they weren't quite appropriate (silence would have been appropriate!). The author led me by the hand through plot lines where I might not have gone, straining slightly, and yet I bought it. It worked. Some information was withheld, which annoyed me as a reader (the hero's occupation, for instance), and yet if the author had told us sooner, some of the mystery would have been lost. But when she comes face to face with the bad guy, how does she not immediately notice the tell-tale buff pants and black boots (especially when they are not standard issue - spoiler there, so I'm being deliberately obtuse)?
All said, I will look to read more in this series.… (plus d'informations)
