Review: Deep Down by Elouise East 4 of 5 stars

Deep Down (Crush, #4)









Deep Down by Elouise East
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Website designer Craig spends his days working from home chained to a desk but at the times he looks after the home while his partner works. Doctor Alex is a workaholic and often covers others' shifts at the hospital as that is where he is most comfortable. Alex rarely goes out until his best friend drags him out. But Craig's life is not perfect and when Alex has to patch him up he realises that something is not right with Craig's relationship - he might be just a patient but he cannot let him go back into a dangerous situation. But when he reaches out Alex's boyfriend sees him as a threat and Craig's balanced life falls apart under the fists of the man who promised to love him. Alex can heal the Body but Craig has to learn to heal his own heart and give love another chance.

I really enjoyed this book which explored how control and abuse in a domestic setting can creep up in a relationship so slowly that you think it is normal behaviour and just cannot see it. Alex crossed a few lines even though he tried hard not to but I was thrilled that after a healing period of time they were able to enter a relationship together. Easy to read and understand. Contains domestic abuse both physical and mental as well as some MM mature content.
