Story
The night she met Malik ignited a burning desire in her that Deja hadn’t even known she was capable of. She could never forget the way his strong hands had held her or the way his lips had electrified her body like a bolt of lightning. Things with Malik seemed like something out of a fairy tale, and the more time she spent with him, the more she was willing to give him every part of her. Until the unthinkable happened. Deja discovers that she’s pregnant. How could one night of passion create so much confusion in her life?

I was tantalized by the mystery of her. The leech inside me came out to find prey, but found none in this enigmatic girl. The close proximity of her essence didn’t entice the monster within, so what did that make her? I had more questions than answers, but one thing was unmistakable; although she released me from her embrace, her hold on me remained.

Story
This story is dedicated to all the victims of sexual slavery in German concentration camps, who had to endure inhumane suffering under the Nazi regime. For many years after the atrocities had been committed, both sides - the abusers and the abused - still vehemently denied certain aspects of the Holocaust, and even the victims refused to admit the ugly truth about their incarceration, some out of fear, some out of shame, until several women decided to break an unofficial oath of silence, and brought their stories to life. This book is based on one of those stories. Emilia is a young Jewish woman, whose life slowly turns into a nightmare as she finds herself facing a dreadful choice: to secure her family's very existence by offering herself to one of the men who had put her behind the walls with barbed wire, or perish together with the least fortunate ones.

Emotional
Trigger Warnings at the end.
This is my first book by Eric Reese and first narration by Yael Eylat-Tanaka. This short managed to pack in quite a bit of world building and evoke a myriad of emotions. It was a difficult, but good listen.
Eylat-Tanaka has a pleasant voice. While I wish there were more differentiating of character’s voices, it was still an enjoyable narration.
I’d look forward to more work by both the author an narrator.
*** Trigger Warning ***
This short story deals with slavery and pre-Civil War life in the South. Characters are beaten and raped. While not overly graphic, still very descriptive.
*** End ***
I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A brief look into slavery
Miro and Osmanu take us through the lives of slaves. How horrible masters could be. How hard it was to love and be together. Masters controlled them in every way. I could not imagine having to give myself to a master because he demanded it. How hard that had to have been. This is such a realistic story that gives us a brief insight to the horrible conditions slaves had to endure.
Yael Eylat-Tanaka narrates this story beautifully. The pain and anguish felt by Mira and Osmanu can be easily felt by the reader through Yael Eylat-Tanaka's narrations. The emotions and struggles were brought to life. This story was enhanced by the narration.

This book was an interesting story of the life of a Woman Slave in America. It touches on many of the indignities and inustices of the Time Period. I enjoyed it.

The narrator made the book even more better
At the beginning of the story, Yael catches my attention. There's something in her voice that makes the book more interesting. I don't have any problem with the story I just want a good narrator coz a good story will become a bad one if it will be narrated horribly. So I'm happy that Yael didn't disappoint me. I will definitely follow her books from now on.

under devolped
This story could've been so much more there was a foundation of a good story. If the writer had devolped the characters more (and made it a longer story) I think I would've really enjoyed it. Now It felt so rushed the ending came as a suprise it just didn't feel done
