Him & I by Helena Hunting
In a searing, dark love story steeped in grit, obsession, and secrets, two broken souls keep coming back together—no matter how much they tear each other apart.
Birdie Fast is thriving, with two degrees, a stable fiancé, and her dream job. Her mistakes are in the past, and she’s determined to keep them there.
Jarrod Storm, Birdie’s new CEO, is the man who destroyed her life and stole everything from her. Grown rich and powerful, he’s spent years waiting for her in the shadows.
Now, he wants her back.
Birdie loathes him, but she can’t deny how he makes her safe. He’s the only one who’s ever truly seen her.
If there’s anything Birdie has learned, it’s to keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
Because you’re never truly safe with a past like hers.

Him & I consumed me! I was intrigued from the
start and wanted to know everything about Jarrod and Birdie. It was angsty and
intense as their history unfolded. I liked how the story developed, how the
past and present intersected, and all the details that pulled me in. It was a
complex relationship, like a crazy mix of toxic and never-ending love, and I
couldn’t get enough!
Jarrod and Birdie were intense and gritty characters who
had endured a lot in life. Some things were pretty horrific and not for the
faint of heart. I liked the past and present storytelling and couldn’t wait for
all the details to come together. There was a push and pull between them, mixed
with an undeniable chemistry that captivated me. Birdie could be reactive, and
Jarrod could be over the top with his choices at times, but I liked the
emerging details as Birdie learned all Jarrod had done behind the scenes for
her, and he learned all she went through and sacrificed. Jarrod could be so
sweet at times, and I liked how she trusted him bit by bit. It’s not easy. It’s
not pretty. But they get there in the end. I liked them moving on from their
pasts, watching them fall in love again, and thrive.
I liked getting to know Jarrod’s friends and the bonds they
had. I also liked meeting the people Birdie could count on and how some of
those connections came to the forefront. There was building drama, and I liked
all the hints as more was revealed. It was exciting to see everything
connecting and how certain truths about their past and present were learned.
I went back and forth between reading on my Kindle and
listening to the audiobook, and I can’t say which I loved more. The narrators
did a fantastic job bringing these characters to life. I enjoyed the complicated
romance, compelling characters, and the hint of suspense that was added. It was
everything combined that hooked me and kept me invested. I never wanted
to put it down!
