Carla’s Review:
5 stars for Destructive Release by L U Ann. This is the final book in the Destructive series. You need to read the first two books in the series in order to understand who the characters are and what has gone on in their lives up to this point. I will issue a warning- This series deals with some serious issues such as domestic abuse, suicide, and Bipolar disorder. This series is based on a true story, and the author deals with every one of these difficult situations in a phenomenal way.
This book picks up right where Destructive Choices left off. Lacey is really in bad shape over her mother’s suicide. Cain once again proves what an ass hat he is by basically kidnapping Evan from Lacey and Devon’s home. Lacey and Devon travel to where Cain has taken Evan to bring him home. The courts are difficult, so they end up having to stay there for a while. Devon gets a call from his boss stating that Devon must fly in to be at an important meeting. While in flight, there is a malfunction with the plane that causes the plane to crash. During search and rescue efforts, two deceased men’s bodies were found, but they were still searching for Devon.. Did Devon survive the plane crash? Will Lacey finally get her Evan back? Will she ever get Cain out of her life and her son’s life?
I loved, loved this series! In my opinion, this series has the power to touch people who are suffering at the hands of an abuser, contemplating suicide, and suffering from Bi-polar disorder. Kudos to L U Ann for tackling such important issues. I look forward to reading a lot more of her work in the near future.
*I was given a copy of this book as a gift by the author in exchange for an honest review.
Author L.U. Ann moved to Colorado from the Eastern Shore of Maryland with her husband and two children. Life in Colorado is so much different. In Maryland, you would find her in the garden tending to her vegetables and flowers, sea glass and shark tooth hunting once a week, and enjoying the kids swimming in the backyard. Her life took a drastic change when her family moved to their own “Little House on the Prairie” at an elevation of over 6,000 feet above sea level, and a semi-arid climate that makes it hard to grow anything. While barely anything can grow where she resides now, the wildlife makes up for it. Mountain Lions, and coyotes, and rattlesnakes, oh my!
She tries to spend a little time each day writing, but domestic chores around the house usually take precedence. She would much rather hide them from her husband. She tends to her loving four-legged children who at times become much too demanding when she locks herself in the office. This often results in MORE domestic work, and she finds herself cleaning up after their deviant behavior.
At night, you’ll find her begging the kids to go to bed so that she can catch up on the latest book before her sister can. Yes, she is an avid reader who escapes her chaotic but wonderful home to the feisty depths of romance land in search of her newest book boyfriend. Shh, don’t tell her husband.
She is an artist by the grace of God. She worked as a set designer for six years, helping establish a local children’s theatre where she was the scenery artist, set, and prop designer. Before that, you would find her covered in paint, so engrossed in painting a mural that time didn’t exist. Graphic design is her guilty pleasure.
Destructive Choices is the second book in The Destructive Series. Each book will hit its reader with lots of angst hoping for a happily ever after.
