Introduction
Voyeur is the first book in the "Voyeur" series by Fiona Cole. This is also my very first book by this author here. So I was intrigued to see how my experience with her writing would go. I was able to participate in this read with the "Dark Romance Book Club" I am a part of. (If you love dark romance and want to join in, DM me) But anyways, I absolutely adored the way that this story was written and immediately I was sucked into the story and so loved it. Its a fabulous mix of steam and heart and character growth that just tugged at my heartstrings!
My Outlook
This was such a precious story and I highly recommend that if you like contemporary romance with higher steam levels or voyeurism being explored that you definitely get to experience that with this one. I simply couldn't get enough of it and really respected how it was developed on this story. Fiona Cole really tackles this taboo so well. I normally am not into Voyeurism but when its written well I can really get behind it. And this is so much more than a taboo romance. I wouldn't even necessarily call it a dark romance to be honest. It didn't really have "dark romance vibes" at least not for me. The way that Fiona Cole tackled this story was brilliantly done. We slowly see the couple have a connection before they even officially meet and I just loved seeing that. The way that the hero's character growth and seeing him deal with his past and the trauma that has disabled him in relationship was so well focused on and especially in how the heroine was able to connect with him and be so sensitive to his needs was so inspiring. I absolutely adored these two together and even the third act conflict I was on board with. The author really made it be believable.
