Book Review: Under Her Skin by Adriana Anders

A romantic thriller, “Under Her Skin” follows Uma Crane, a battered woman who was able to escape her abuser. With no ID, no money and nowhere to go, Uma found herself in rural Virginia because of a free clinic for women like her.

And in this little town where everybody knows everybody, Uma unexpectedly found friends and most of all, love. But, with her history, can she sustain it? The nightmare is not over and she is poised to run once again.

If you like “Sleeping with the Enemy,” then you will find “Under Her Skin” more than just another story. An emotional read, Uma catches the reader’s attention from the first page. And as the story progresses, Uma becomes real and not just a character in the book. You hope that she is not your neighbor, because how can you wish something like that to someone you know. But, you have seen the likes of Uma on television and in the news. With that, you start rooting for her, including the newfound love she has.

Under Her Skin (Blank Canvas)” is Rated M for Mature due to violence and sexual content.

Description

Her Body is His Canvas

A darkly possessive relationship has left Uma alone and on the run. Beneath her drab clothing, she hides a terrible secret-proof of her abuse, tattooed onto her skin in a lurid reminder of everything she’s survived.

Caught between a brutal past and an uncertain future, Uma’s reluctant to bare herself to anyone…much less a rough ex-con whose rage drives him in ways she will never understand. But beneath his frightening exterior, Ivan is gentle. Warm. Compassionate. And just as determined to heal Uma’s broken heart as he is to destroy the monster who left his mark scrawled across the delicate tapestry of her skin.
