Love is like an avalanche. It hits hard, fast and without mercy.
At least it did for me when Sculpt, the lead singer of the rock band Tear Asunder knocked me off my feet. Literally, because he’s also a fighter, illegally of course, and he taught me how to fight. He also taught me how to love and I fell hard for him. I mean the guy could do sweet, when he wasn’t doing bossy, and I like sweet.
Then it all shattered.
Kidnapped.
Starved.
Beaten.
I was alone and fighting to survive.
When I heard Sculpt’s voice, I thought he was there to save me.
I was wrong.
(It is highly recommended to read “With You” the novella first).
*Warning: This book contains some disturbing situations, strong language and sexual content. Over 18 years.
This is a love story with some dark elements. Dark contemporary romance. No cliffhanger and next in the Tear Asunder series is Ream’s story (the band’s lead guitarist).

Renee’s Review:
This was the first book that I have ever read that was this dark. I do believe I’ve found a new genre of books that I love.
Sculpt is the lead singer of Tear Asunder and he’s also an illegal fighter. Emily is sweet and innocent but was attack by a guy on her way out of work one night and she wants Sculpt to teach her how to defend herself so this never happens again. At first he refuses but then reluctantly agrees to it. After several months they fall in love. Sculpt is Emily’s world. He’s so sweet to her to be the big bad illegal fighter and lead singer of a band. He writes her a song and she goes to see him preform at her friend Matts bar. One trip alone to the bathroom is the beginning of what can only be described as a nightmare for Emily until she hears Sculpts voice. He here, he’s come to save her…….or has he really.
I devoured this book. I loved every second of it and spent most of the book holding my breathe and trying to figure out what is going on. It’s a story of one of the most horrible things that you can imagine happening to any girl. A story of a boy lost to a world that could have destroyed him. A story of survival and a love so strong it can survive anything. Or can it?? Don’t miss this book. Nashonda Rose has written an amazing book that’s a must read in my eyes.
Carla’s Review:
This is the first book in the Tear Asunder series, and it is the continuation of Sculpt and Emily’s story. If you haven’t read the novella, With You, you need to read it before this one in order to learn the background information on both the characters and story line.
Emily thinks that her life is perfect. She has fallen in love with Sculpt aka Logan, and she is on cloud nine. One night while at her friend’s bar, she takes a routine trip to the ladies room having no idea that her life will forever change. I have to admit that the first part of this book left me confused. I didn’t know if I should still love Sculpt or hate him for the monster he appeared to be. I don’t want to give any more details of the story away because it is something that you need to experience for yourself. I will say that this book is a dark read. If you are looking for puppies and rainbows, this is NOT the story for you! However, if you are like me and love a good, dark read, you should give this one a try!
