In Long
Safe In His Storm is a big book at over 550 pages and I have to admit, I always worry I will lose interest when a book is so big. I needn't had worried about that with this book!
The main characters, Gabi and Jake, both have difficult pasts which are still effecting them to this day. This was quite a big part of the book because, as a reader, I was learning about both Gabi and Jake throughout the whole book not just the beginning. Especially Gabi who is much more of a closed book than Jake and it took her a long time to open up, even a little. Being kept in the dark about Gabi's history was really luring and different, often the reader knows just not the other characters so I found this really refreshing.
I really liked Jake, his probably one of the most caring doms I have met and he didn't just talk the talk. His actions were really sweet and thoughtful and he definitely acted on his thoughts. I couldn't help but fall for him.
The storyline is very much revolved around getting to know the characters and although I never felt on the edge of my seat through suspense I never felt this book needed that. Gabi and Jake are both such well thought out characters they offer the reader so much.
Final Thoughts
Annalise Delaney is a very talented author who has created really strong characters that come alive when together. The chemistry is hot and the scenes were not just steamy but had plenty of funny and sweet scenes.

Quotes
'Oh? What if you change your mind between now and then? Don't you find it precarious to show your hand before you're sure all the cards have been dealt?'
How many times have you fantasised about me taking you, Gabrielle? Peeling off your clothes, touching your flesh, and having my every way with you?'
'He was different. Edgy. Commanding. A little intimidating. And she found herself wanting more.'
