Credence

Three of them, one of her, and a remote cabin in the woods. Let the hot, winter nights ensue in this steamy dark romance from New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas, now with bonus material.

Tiernan de Haas doesn't care about anything anymore. The only child of a film producer and his starlet wife, she's grown up with wealth and privilege but not love or guidance. And when her parents suddenly pass away, she knows she should be devastated. But she's always been alone, hasn't she?

Jake Van der Berg, her father's stepbrother and her only living relative, assumes guardianship of Tiernan. Sent to live in the mountains of Colorado with Jake and his two sons, Noah and Kaleb, Tiernan quickly learns that these men now have a say in what she chooses to care and not care about anymore.

As the men take Tiernan under their wing, she slowly finds her place among them.

Because lines blur and rules become easy to break when no one else is watching.

One of them has her. The other one wants her. But he's going to keep her.

I have been sitting here trying to figure out how to rate this book for quite some time. I came to the conclusion that I am going to give it five stars. Does that mean I agree with everything that went on in this book? Hell no!! But that isn't way I read. I read to escape... to be entertained... to feel different emotions- Whether it be good or bad. THIS BOOK DEFINITELY DID ALL OF THAT FOR ME!! Credence by Penelope Douglas definitely pushed my limits. I will say that this story is not for everyone. This is for readers that don`t mind boundaries being crossed, and having their comfort level pushed. There are a few small things I didn't like about the book, but I won't go into them, because that would be giving things away. Despite those small things, I really enjoyed this book! ................... "We all acclimate. We learn, we resolve, we com around- it's not that anything really gets easier or harder. We just get better at rolling with it." .................... Tiernan de Haas doesn`t care about anything anymore. The only child of a film producer and his starlet wife. She's grown up with wealth and privilege, but not love or guidance. The shadow of her parents fame followed her everywhere. And when they suddenly pass away, she know she should be devastated. But has anything really changed? She has always been alone, hasn't she? Jake Van der Berg, her father`s stepbrother and her only living relative, assumes guardianship of Tiernan, who is still two months shy of eighteen. Sent to live with him and his two sons, Noah and Kaleb, in the mountains of Colorado, Tiernan soon learns that these men now have a say in what she chooses to care and to care about anymore. Lines blur and rules become easy to break when no one else is watching. ONE OF THEM HAS HER. THE OTHER ONE WANTS HER. BUT HE... HE`S GOING TO KEEP HER. I loved the relationship between Tiernan and each of the guys. She had a different type of relationship with each of them, which she really needed! And they become a family!! Don't get me wrong. This is not a nice little family drama story. I give it five flames out of five, for the sexy times and the romance. The characters are completely awesome, each in their own way!! ................. "Don't talk. You'll ruin this. feel guilty later." ................. One thing is sure- I need to check out more of this author's work! She has definitely caught my attention! I`ve only heard good things about Penelope Douglas, and she didn`t disappoint. This book was nothing like the books I`ve read before! But I am not going to lie. I LOVED IT!

If you want SMUT, this is for you. If you want plot it’s not a recommendation.
