Blurb:
Her elusive past didn't worry me,
Her heartbreaking scars never made me cringe,
And her haunting demons only made me a stronger man.
But the day Blake Martin was stolen from me,
I was scared to death.
Prepared to do anything necessary to get her back,
Little did I know it just might cost me my life.
My name is Madden Decker, and this is my story.
MY REVIEW
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review
Transparent is the second book in the Luminous series. If you haven't read Translucent, you should before reading this story. Transparent was told from some different point of views( can't say who, I am trying not to give anything away :) )
Erin Noelle had me on edge with this story. I sat at the end of my seat and was waiting for the other foot to drop and I would be a absolute mess. Surprisingly, I honestly can say I am OK with how the story ended.. The last series I read from Erin had me depress for a week and I honestly thought Transparent was heading in that direction. Good Job Erin.
Transparent was full of so many intense scenes. The story had me questioning everything and everyone. I enjoyed the new characters that were introduced and didn't blink an eye to the ones that I knew were no good.
In this book, I got to see how much Madden loved Blake. He was an all out alpha, not caring if his life was on the line to get his girl back. I thought that Blake found her bad ass inner self and put it to use when it was needed.
Both Blake and Madden were put through so much in this book but their love for each other never changed.
Overall, this was well written, the characters and plot worked well. There was never a dull moment reading Transparent and I can read ”The End” and feel very content with the way it ended. Great Job Erin!!!! A must read series.!!!

TRANSLUCENT Book 1
Sometimes you reach a point where you just can’t take any more — a breaking point, some call it.
The day I watched my husband murder the woman who was pregnant with his child, my point didn’t just break, it exploded like a full magazine’s worth of hollow points firing through the barrel of a fully-automatic AK-47.
Literally.
I am no longer his American Princess, nor am I his slave.
Now, I’m a murderer in hiding. My name was Bryleigh Carter Oliveira, and that was my story.
Translucent is one woman's story of breaking free, starting over, and learning to trust again through willful submission.

Excerpt #1
I’m in shock. We all are. Complete fucking shock. Unable to even process the words Marshal Doherty just spoke. Words that shred me to my core.
Lies. It has to be lies. That’s my initial thought, though I know what he says is one-hundred percent true. He has no reason to be dishonest. He’s shown me the articles on his phone. It’s her in the pictures. Looking exactly like she did in the photos inside the hidden envelope in her drawer. Like the one I took and keep in my desk.
“Who?” I ask, finally able to manage words. “Who do you think has her? Honestly.”
The suit-clad man sighs and crosses his arms over his chest, eyeing me with a circumspect hesitation. If he’s smart, he can sense the desperation oozing from my pores, and he realizes how dangerously devoted to finding Blake I am. No one will stop my efforts to find her, especially not after what he just revealed about her unthinkable past.
“The first place we’ll look is Chicago,” he concedes, his voice so low it can barely be heard over the buzz from people around us. “Vincent Ricci has become one of the most powerful underbosses in America over the past few years, and he has made no secret he’s looking for the woman who murdered his son. There’s a pretty price on her head. It may take a couple of days for whoever has her to get her there, but I’ll have my guys working close to him, keeping their ears to the ground. The Italians are known for having flashy, extravagant celebrations when they torture and kill someone they’ve been searching for. A way to show their entire community what will happen to you if you’re ever marked as an enemy of theirs. If he has her, we’ll know soon. They’ll want everyone to know.”
My stomach rolls, threatening to revolt at the images in my mind of where she could be.
