Why did I think that after the really heavy ending of the first book, it can't get much more emotionally draining. Emma Jaye's writing really sent me airborne!
From the blurb:
Erasing the past won’t right the wrong.
Hunted, treated like an animal, and forced to act against his conditioning shattered Remedy’s psyche. As much as Gage hates the idea, deleting Rem’s memory of Kalzir is the only way to get his Rem back, not that the Axis has given him a choice.
One moment, Gage is Rem’s lover; the next, he’s back in the friend zone, but at least not forgotten, like Tarrant. Oblivious to his past, Remedy settles back into his gilded cage, content with his life. But Gage can’t forget.
Overwhelmed by memories, Gage is no longer satisfied with his role in the Axis and Rem’s life. Like forbidden fruit, the feelings Rem evoked can’t be forgotten once tasted. The wish to be free intensifies, but what can one person do against the richest corporation in the known universe?
Gage must decide whether to let Rem live with the illusion of free will or risk breaking Rem’s spirit again by revealing the truth for a chance at love and freedom.
Erasure is a gritty, polyamorous, scifi suspense, second in the Progenitor series, set in the future of the Malthusia universe.
Tags: Amnesic hero, high angst, danger, violence, including sexual assault, I’d die for him, bumping egos (and other things), upset the progenitor at your peril, will Gage ever get out of the friend zone?
GaleM's review:
Erasure? Absolutely - it blew my mind to pieces. The last part of the first book was truly a marvel of the dark and twisted paths the human mind can take. But the continuation - it doesn't stop there! Gaining speed and strength, it shows how much more there is in store for Remedy - more pain, more challenges, more revelations but also personal growth and transformation.
Losing everything and not even knowing how much you have lost - the author has zero qualms to throw the readers and the characters in the proverbial deepest end of the lake or the darkest side of this thrilling adventure.
Erasure is chock full of spice, steam and action, and we see one new Remedy - who has learned how to demand, fight and claim what he believes is his. From the broken, reformed and reborn pieces of his previous self, has emerged a new version of Rem, that actually has a chance to withstand all the hits, the Axis will throw at him. Gage and Tarrant have their own paths of redemption to walk and it's definitely not easy ones. And I can't wait to see how this will pan out.
Erasure is currently available as an e-book and can be read as part of your Kindle Unlimited Subscription
