Long Time Gone by SE Jakes

When a tornado meets a volcano, nothing is safe.

Soldier of fortune Prophet Drews always worked alone—until Tom Boudreaux became his partner. But when Tom walked away three months ago, ostensibly to keep Prophet safe, Prophet learned the true meaning of being alone. Everyone knows that Prophet, a Navy SEAL turned CIA spook turned mercenary, can look after himself. Which means he must’ve driven his lover away.

Even with half a world between them, Prophet can’t get the man out of his head. Maybe that’s why he’s in New Orleans in the middle of a hurricane, protecting Tom’s aunt. But the only looter around is Tom, bursting back into Prophet’s life. It turns out that Prophet’s been stuck in Tom’s head—and heart—too.

Their explosive reunion gets even hotter when Tom is arrested for murder. As they fight to clear his name, they delve deep into his past, finding enemies among everyone they meet. Staying alive in such a dangerous world is hard enough, but they soon discover that fighting to stay together is the most difficult thing they’ve ever done.

After reading Catch A Ghost, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this book. Prophet and Tom are just amazing characters and I can’t seem to get enough of them! With the way that the last book ended, I was left wanting for more and I couldn’t wait to find out what happened between these two men.
I was really surprised with how much we learn about Tom and his past in this book. I suppose I was hoping for more about Prophet, but I was still excited once I realized that this book was about Tom. I think that the Ms. Jakes did a great job at giving a history for Tom, it was one that stands out from a lot of other characters pasts. And it also gives a bit of an insight into why he is the way that he is the way that he is today.
Prophet was still Prophet in this book. You are left wanting for more of him after reading the book. He gives you insane teases into his past, but that’s it! I think he has made it his mission in his life to tease us readers with hints to why he is the way that he is.
The story overall has an amazing plot line. The twists that take place during the story were some of the best that I have read this year so far. Ms. Jakes has a really great and original writing style that just keeps me wanting to read more of her books. I can’t wait to start the next book in the series!
