Lucas is behind bars thanks in large part to Sabra's quick thinking and self-preservation-even if that's one more secret she has to keep. Now, seven years later, life is moving forward, and Sabra is starting to heal, live, and love again with her friends and Trevor Collins by her side. He's tall, dark, and sexy, and he doesn't fall for Sabra's games. The future is finally looking bright-until one phone call shatters everything. Used is a romantic suspense with domestic thriller elements. Please be aware that there are topics that may be triggers for some readers, and this work is meant for mature readers.

This is not one of those books to pick up to escape reality or pain or anything like that. Sabra is a party girl who doesn't want anyone getting too close, especially men. Still, her closest friend Trevor has been hinting for some time that he wants to be more than friends and Sabra acts on it only to leave him the next day. Sabra has a lot of demons and I enjoyed reading about her growth from someone who allowed her past traumas to dictate her life and relationships. Trevor is definitely the perfect fit for Sabra, never shying away from what he wanted or trying to change Sabra in any way. I think I struggled with the pacing of this story and the trigger warnings were a bit rough for me. I just felt like the story dragged in a lot of spots and there were whole chapters that didn't move the plot along at all. That being said this story was an interesting read and I'm excited to see what Kate Dunbar does next. “USED was amazing. Like seriously amazing. I can't remember the last time I hated to put a book down so I could go to sleep and then immediately pick it up to finish it the next morning. And yet, here we are and that's what I did.” ~ Samantha Chase, New York Times Bestselling Author “Rarely have I read a book so vividly described, so rich with emotion, that I felt like I lived it. USED is the kind of book that engages your heart and takes you on a journey that leaves you hopeful and empowered by the end.” ~ Erika Kelly, Award-Winning Author of the Rock Star Romance Series “Heartbreakingly beautiful. This book isn’t about angst and pain. It’s about a fighter-a survivor-that we all attain to be. The story tears you apart in the best ways and builds you back up in the most beautiful.” ~ Nichole Chase, New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author “Used is a raw, heart-wrenching story of surviving trauma, but it's also so much more. It's a romantic, emotionally gratifying tale of unflinching, all-in love. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.” ~ Brenda Rothert, Author USED is being narrated by Stella Hunter and will be available on March 8th! Stay tuned for all the pre-order information!
