Publisher Description
For fans of Christina Lauren and Jodi Ellen Malpas comes the next novel in M. O’Keefe’s breathtakingly sexy series about a woman called into a journey of the heart, body, and soul.
We played our roles, told each other lies.
But now Dylan is no longer just a mysterious deep voice on the other end of the line. We’re face-to-face and our relationship is very, very real.
We still have secrets—but so much is crystal clear:
The thrilling danger.
The raw, naked desire.
The need to keep feeling the way he makes me feel. Forever.
Dylan is putting up walls, trying to keep me safe, but he can’t shut me out. He has seen my darkness and rescued me. Now it’s my turn, if only he will let me.
Praise for The Truth About Him
“M. O’Keefe blew me away with The Truth About Him, the conclusion to the dark, emotional, and dangerously sexy story of Annie and Dylan that began with the brilliant Everything I Left Unsaid. Wonderfully compelling and absolutely one-click worthy, this duet by M. O’Keefe is tops of my 2015 favorites list!”—New York Times bestselling author J. Kenner

“The conclusion to O’Keefe’s dark and spellbinding . . . Everything I Left Unsaid jumps off the cliff into a raging sea of passion and danger as she continues to push our couple through the darkness that consumes them. . . . Suspense and intrigue play a larger role, with the romance flowing right along . . . as Dylan and Annie fight to hold on to the love they have built.”—RT Book Reviews

The Truth About Him is a worthy sequel to Everything I Left Unsaid, with a similarly thoughtful and nuanced portrayal of the main characters. . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This erotic and suspenseful romance picks up where Everything I Left Unsaid left off; the outcomes of several plot threads are less than satisfying, but the drama makes the journey worthwhile. Annie McKay and Dylan Daniels's burgeoning romance is first threatened by the arrival of Annie's estranged and abusive husband. Soon afterward, Dylan's brother, the leader of a local motorcycle club, makes several decisions that endanger the club, in addition to Dylan, Annie, and everyone near them. As much as Dylan would like to retreat to his "mountaintop fortress," his father's recent cancer diagnosis and Annie's determination to care for his father makes that impossible. Throughout the turmoil, Annie and Dylan worry that their pasts will get in the way of building a solid future together. O'Keefe composes riveting scenarios, but many of the secondary characters come across as caricatures or are simply inscrutable. This excursion through troubled communities is darker than its predecessor, but readers seeking exhilarating sex along with thrilling conflicts won't be able to put it down.

Book was overly good. It needs and deserves more books. It can’t just end like that.
This story is addictive!!
This story is so addictive. You feel the struggle that Dylan has accepting his past, his present and his future. Annie has found her inner strength and is not afraid to use it. The author has you feeling the emotional roller coaster of these two falling in love. Absolute joy reading this story.
Enticingly Sexy!
After the huge cliffhanger in Everything Left Unsaid, I could not wait to get my hands on The Truth About Him. This one starts right where the other left off and quickly you are brought back into all the drama, romance and the enticingly dark and sexy relationship that is Annie and Dylan's.
This story is written in dual POV that I love, letting us into Dylan's head finally getting to see where he is coming from letting us finally see what he is thinking. Hard was what he knew, so easy was something he couldn't trust. Soft and tender and careful, these things had no place in his life. He was a Daniel's and he didn't even know how to return emotions and feelings and Annie deserved better than him.
There was such vulnerability to each of these characters, with a great well written background that was complex explaining their struggles. Now came the hard part for them, they would need to clear out the lies that made their life livable. Clearing that out of the way, getting down to the very heart of their own truth. It was hard, it was uncomfortable, but it had to happen. Annie had to make him see.
There are such great secondary characters, as well as suspense, danger, lies, anxiety, truth and dare and addicting hope and love that consumes you in this story. Can't wait for the next. Loved this enticingly sexy love story of Annie and Dylan's. You don't want to miss these two great stories. Get yours now!
