In life, it is said that everything happens for a reason. If that’s true, how can you explain death? Especially when it happens to someone so young, so beautiful, and so innocent? My name is Bain Adams, and I struggle with these thoughts every day. I’ve been through hell and back, somehow surviving the unimaginable. My sister took her life six months ago, and now, what’s left is a shell of the man I once was, a shadow of the person I used to be. Do I miss that life? Absolutely. But I miss her more, every day. I pray time will ease the pain and help my suffering while I search for the answers…but so far, nothing.
Happiness is something I knew so long ago, and now it’s nothing but a faint, distant recollection of the life I once had. My name is Arion LaSalle, and seven months ago my life was shredded to pieces when my fiancé disappeared while deployed. He never came home, burning a hindrance of pain and agony within my soul. For so long, I lived my life believing everything happens for a reason, until now. ‘Cause none of it makes any sense. Why Nate? Why only him? Since getting through each breath is a struggle, I put on a fake persona, pretending I’m someone I’m not, living my life recklessly. Because for me, it was all taken far too soon.

Two things um...yummy cover *winks* and two WTF Mindeff of a damn cliffhanger wasn't expecting that. All of LK's other books had no cliffhangers so I'm thinking a stand alone nope ladies a MINDEFF OF A CLIFFHANGER!! Bain I loved him he has this understanding way about him, "whoa, don't get ahead of yourself, girl. Who said anything about a relationship? You act like that's what I want." His reasonings are pretty basic, "because I would eff you every which way in my car." These two together are such passionate people, "he nods his head on my chest, and I gently rake my fingernails up and down his back. His skin, so soft and warm. My touch causes his d*** to harden again inside of me. "You're an animal," I tease him." I loved this book!

Oh Boy!!!! This was a super fantastic story. I loved it so very much and wish I could give it more than 5 STARS!!! Bain! Bain!Bain! This poor sexy as sin man has lived through something very horrific. His family is falling apart and he's not far behind. He's given up his dreams and future and self medicating just to get by. Then Ms Arion comes into the picture. She too has lived through something very traumatic and is coping her own way. By sleeping around but never a repeat performance. That is until she meets Bain. Watching their story unfold was powerful. The way they need each other and can't get by without one another. Makes you feel like they were meant to go through these tragic events so they could meet their true loves. I loved the way the story was written. We get Bains sister story through her own thoughts as her tragedy unfolds. And then there's that jaw dropping moment at the end that leaves you saying WHAT???????????????
5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL story!, October 10, 2014

This is a very touching story about two people who have both had their share of heart break and devastation but together, over come fears, addictions, and learn to trust again. I cannot wait to read the next segment in this series. LK Collins is a very skilled writer that makes the reader feel what the characters are feeling. . EXCELLENT READ!~!
5.0 out of 5 stars Can't wait for the next!, October 9, 2014

5 Stars! I loved this book! This book opened with a bang, allowing you to feel the emotion pouring out of the pages. It is also sets up a perfect beginning to this book. This was beautifully written and totally took me by surprise considering this is the first book I have ever read by this author. This was an emotional read that had me gripping the seat wanting to know what was going to happen next. This book was full of twists and turns. Whatever you think you know, throw it out the window as this book is going to rock your world!
This is Bain and Arion's story. Both are living by the moment. Both are grieving for someone they lost. Both use addiction to cope and numb the pain. They have the same rules... no attachments or emotions. But when these two cross paths. they will find that they will have a connection they can't deny no matter how much they want too. They use each other was a way to forget. As these two try to find healing from each other, they are headed for some serious curveballs. I loved me some Bain! I loved these two together.
But that ending!... I need the next book now! I will be on pins and needles for its release!
I highly recommend this book but be warned... it does end of a cliffhanger!
I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next installment., October 9, 2014

I was pulled right into the story and read it right through.
Bain is grieving for his sister. He is sliding down a slope he is not sure he wants to climb back up from. He knows not everything is what it seems and wonders if he can ever prove it.
Arion is grieving the only way she knows how by numbing the pain through sex. She has rules. Never sleep over and never get attached.
What happens when you stumble across love when you really don’t even want it. Bring two grieving souls together and then drop a ton of bricks on them just when they are healing.
I am hoping since the book ended on a cliffy we get book two really soon.
I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next installment.

Every Soul by LK Collins is HOT, HOT, HOT!! This is a CLIFFHANGER and boy is it worth it!! This was my first book by LK and I am a fan! She kept me intrigued and interested all the way through!
Bain Adams is a walking dream! This tattooed hottie made me want to jump in this story and comfort him. He is dealing with the loss of his twin sister who took her life six months ago. He is battling the demons of her passing. He turns his back on who was and what he was working to accomplish. Then one night while out with the boys he runs into Arion. Arion is hot, feisty and not looking for any kind of relationship. Bain can tell that she is struggling with her own personal hell just like him. They share a very personal moment in the alley of the bar never knowing everything they are running from is about to change.
Arion LaSelle is fighting to keep going. Seven months ago her fiancé Nate disappeared while on deployment. All their plans and dreams were shattered. Arion keeps everyone at a distance never allowing things to be serious until Bain. Somehow, some way this man gets to her and it bothers her badly. Is it wrong? Is she betraying Nate?
These two have some serious issues. I was really rooting for the two of them to heal each other. I can tell you there are some SMOKING HOT sex scenes. They will get you all hot and bothered. The problem Bain is popping pills to deal with life and Arion is using sex. How do these two make it work?
This story is in both POV’s helping you to really see into their minds what they have been through and what they are dealing with. Also, we get to see Bain’s sister Kinsey’s POV. I won’t give much on Kinsey’s story as you need to read this for yourself except to say that LK made having all three POV’s work. I will say I was a little upset at the cliffhanger. It made me book wasted and I needed a drink after this. I seriously cannot wait for the next book now!!
5 stars all the way!! Written by Jessica S. for Summer’s Book Blog
