Saviour/Resolution by Lesley Jones

Saviour Synopsis

Lauren has decided her marriage is over, but has yet to tell Jay, her abusive husband of the past twenty five years. On a night out with girlfriends, she has a few drinks and musters the courage to shamefully come clean over the abuse she has suffered over the years.
Gabriel joins his brothers for a Friday night drink at a local bar, thirty five, good looking and single after a very brief, failed marriage, all he is ever on the lookout for is a hook up....Even names aren't important to him...Straight sex, no complications.
Watch as their worlds collide, neither of them prepared for the effect each will have on the other. The chemistry is instant and overwhelming and has the possibility to destroy them but will the mind blowing sex be enough to keep them together and overcome each of their pasts?
Their story is sometimes harrowing and heartbreaking and touches on subjects all too often avoided. Don't expect a hearts and flowers romance read, although that is there too, along with some very funny moments

Resolution Synopsis

Resolution picks up exactly where Saviour left us all hanging! Having left an abusive marriage at 45, Lauren can hardly believe that she has found Gabe, a 35 year old blond buff sex god, their instant chemistry has convinced him that that he wants to change his serial shagging ways and to make what they have found permanent, he knows that he loves Lauren but relationships are a whole new concept to him and he doesn't always get it right.
Lauren, still reeling from the abuse she has suffered at the hands of her ex husband is not convinced that jumping straight into another marriage is the right thing for her, despite how much she loves Gabe, the sex is amazing, they have no problems there, with Gabe she is growing in confidence and trying things in the bedroom (and every where else) that she never even considered during her marriage but they have known each other for just 10 short weeks and already they have been through enough drama to last a lifetime. Lauren has once again been beaten and humiliated by her soon to be ex-Husband, Gabe has revealed he was sexually abused by his Step-Mother as a teenager, and Gabe’s ex is threatening to stop him seeing his daughter.
Will Lauren listen to taunts from jealous exes and her own self doubt; or will the love (and lust) Lauren has found in Gabe’s arms be enough for her to let go of her painful past to build a future with Gabe. Resolution is the conclusion of Gabe and Laurens story, it will take you on a roller coaster of emotions, with some steamy and erotic sex scenes, just to keep your pulse racing, like Saviour, some scenes are gut wrenching, it will have you laughing, crying and wanting to not only hug Gabe and Lauren but also wanting to shake some sense into them. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.

Our 4 Star Review of Both

Lauren is finally getting away from her abusive husband of 25+ years. She's ready to escape, but before she does she's gonna have a night out with the girls to have fun and relax. Of course the girls knew something was wrong and when they find out the truth they are there for her, but the one person who's support was unexpected? 
Gabriel is the epitome of a man whore, but one look at Lauren and something he doesn't understand tugs at him. They fall hard and fast, while there's still allot of issues to sort out with her old life she moves forward with Gabe.

The struggles they both go through because of their pasts have had quite an effect on each of them but I loved how they learned how to grow together.

The conclusion to the story starts right where the first left off and WOW. They are both strong headed and think they're right and as they continue their relationship they learn just how important communication is to help sort things through. With each still struggling with their pasts they have to figure out if there really is a future for them. With unexpected tragedies, pasts trying to get in the way, and shocking news all around can these two figure it all out and get their happily ever after?

Loved the conclusion and how they both tried their best to talk things through even when they were mad at each other. I also enjoyed the secondary characters and what they added to the story.
