The Daxon Brothers all have day jobs.
At night, they’re escorts.
But a different kind of escort.
They work with a local domestic abuse center.
Like a thief in the night.
They steal battered women from their abusers.
It’s not an easy job.
And sometimes not legal.
Still, they made an oath.
Never leave a woman behind.
This is Her Story
We all have our stories.
I need to know hers.

REVIEW:HER ESCORT is the second instalment in Kelly Gendron’s contemporary, adult A DIFFERENT KIND OF ESCORT SERVICE erotic, romance suspense series focusing on the Daxon brothers. This is twenty-nine year old construction worker Cole Daxon, and twenty-seven year old, social worker Harper James’ story line. HER ESCORT can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.
WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise including domestic abuse, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.
SOME BACKGROUND: After living a life witnessing the abuse of their mother, Brett, Cole and Lix Daxon work for an organization that rescues women from abusive situations.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Cole and Harper) HER ESCORT follows in the wake of another case of domestic abuse, a case wherein Cole Daxon is called into help but the principle person taking charge is not the woman Cole expected but the woman’s niece Harper James, a woman’s whose need to help is about to spiral out of control. Struggling with the fall-out of her first case, Harper finds herself a target, a target of a man determined to get revenge for the perceived interference in his life. Forced to stay with our story line hero, Harper struggles with her attraction to Cole Daxon, a man whose own demons runs dangerous and dark. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Harper and Cole, and the potential fall-out as no good deed goes unpunished, and our heroine is once again facing the demons from her past.
Harper James is a woman with secrets but refuses to acknowledge what happened or why. Holding onto the past means Harper is unable to let go, and Cole suspects Harper’s secrets continue to push at our heroine’s heart. Cole Daxon knows all too well the darkness that surrounds domestic abuse, and with it, the ghosts that refuse to give up and walk away. Keeping his own secrets close to his heart means having to let go if he wants to move on from the past.
The relationship between Harper and Cole is one of immediate attraction but our couple are in the business of saving every one else. Harper has a habit of running when her life becomes overwhelming, and in this Cole fears that Harper may run and never come back. Living together in the face of threats against our story line heroine forces our couple to admit the truth, a truth in which Cole is falling for a woman who refuses to let go. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
The secondary and supporting characters include several victims and survivors of domestic abuse, Officer Starr, and Lisa, a young woman who works at the crisis center. We are reintroduced to Cole’s brothers Felix aka Lix, Brett and his girlfriend Cassie, as well as their mother, a woman who is paying for the sins of the past, and Willa, the woman who runs the service helping women in abusive situations.
HER ESCORT is another story of abuse and survival, power and control, acceptance and moving forward, love and understanding. The premise is tragic and dramatic; the characters are broken but healing and moving forward; the romance is passionate, forgiving and energetic.
