Anything Rae Touches by Holly Caste

4.75

Like the Scarred Hearts Duet, I fell in love with ART. Holly Caste has a way with words and relatability that makes me feel seen and understood completely.

Rae was hard to love in the beginning, she was cold, mean, and just wasn’t my favorite. But as we learn more about her and what happened 10 years ago, we learn more about why she’s cold and distant.

She’s been through so much, and now someone who was potentially a trigger for her trauma shows back up in her life. But it goes differently than she expects and her life completely changes. For the better.

The emotions in ART, we’re a rollercoaster. I felt like I would be high and then low in pages and I just felt like Rae was driving me mad with how much she kept pushing Miles away.

Miles is definitely one of my new favorite male characters. He was so strong, and I love how vulnerable he is with Rae. He’s also super understanding because of his own addictions. And on the kinky side of things, he definitely takes cake for top dog. He was hot, in all the right ways. I loved reading the chapters that they got spicy in. 
I loved the relapse scene probably the most. The vulnerability er get to see as well as the thought process that can go through an addicts mind. I bawled the whole time, because I knew he was hurt and he was hurting terribly. And then we read Rae’s chapter and I bawled some more.
 

the spicy fences themselves were so hot. I loved the balcony scene the most, that was definitely sexy as can be. I love Mile’s possessiveness in bed and his control. It is definitely hot and makes the book even better.
