GRR Reviews Body (A Trinity Novel) by Audrey Carlan

Body has good dialog and good scars for the two main characters, but the darkest hour was, IMHO, a too-stupid-to-live moment.

Gillian is a fundraiser for the Safe Haven Foundation, and she dedicated her life to the cause because she was an abuse survivor herself, having finally put her abuser in jail and fled to the opposite coast. She found 3 great female friends in San Francisco, but she craves a man in her life that can give her some hot sex, and her current BF is so vanilla, he cringed at her request for doggy style. She came to know Chase Davis, the alpha billionaire with his own dark past and the biggest donor to the foundation at a gala, and he swept her off her feet. Their chemistry is undeniable, but he also hit her trigger points about her prior abuse with his alpha personality. When her evil ex started stalking her, can Chase keep her safe?

The dialog is above average, IMHO, and the triggers plausible. However, I find the darkest hour a total letdown. Let's just say Gillian didn't appreciate certain things that Chase did for her, and she responded by cutting off the relationship. Talk about cutting off the nose to spite the face! Youch! Still, a better than the average tale.
