"When I finally drive into you, you'll weep not because I'm hurting you, but because you are empty without me."
This is Victoria & Saint’s story that is full of passion, Enemies to Lovers, Forced Proximity, Fake Marriage and victim survival.
I was excited to read this book because how Saint was portrayed in The Billionaire’s Fake Wife. I always found him intriguing, funny and a know it all. But reading his story sort of opens up other views of him and how he copes with the ‘incident’ and how he tries his hardest not to become ‘pussywhipped’ 🤣🤣
Of course this story is sort of similar to the first book, which to be honest I thought it would be a different situation. I mean it was different with the events that had unfolded and what lies were unravelled, but having another fake marriage felt repeated.
Don’t get me wrong I love the chemistry between the two characters, seeing characters from passed books appearing and the reading about the hidden agenda being revealed throughout the book was really interesting. Also the sexy scenes between the two characters were hot 🥵🥵 trust me I would be frustrated too!
But I loved the how book 1 & 2 sort of merged together and that with each book we get to find out more about the ‘incident’, but we also get to see a softer side of the brute/dominant bad Billionaires too.
I am interested on what will happened next, and how the set up that Saint orchestrated will play out in the next book 😈😉🥵 x

This book is part of a series of Alpha men with traumatic backgrounds. This one follows Saint and Victoria. This book is full of heat! Saint is possessive and domineering, but wants to protect Victoria. Victoria is lying to everyone but for a good reason. One of my favorites in the series!

Victoria and Saint’s story was a bit different than I expected. Many scenes seemed disconnected in a way. Having gained interest with the 7 from Sin’s story, I needed to read this one. It had it’s moments and finding out about what happened to Saint during the kidnapping helped. I’ll keep reading this series. I just want that “bum” to turn out to be who I expect him to be.

This book is amazing. Flat out.
Saint is such a complex character, who is a bit much but deep down is the kind of person I want to have on my side. And Gigi, like any great heroine, she is tough but vulnerable. The perfect blend.
I HIGHLY recommend this book. There are certain scenes that I have read over and over again (bathtub scene, riding crop, strawberries, read it and you too will be in the know.....STRAWBERRIES)
I can't wait for the next book in the series. In the meantime, I'll happily devour Saint and Gigi again.....and again......and again.

Saint is a force to be reckoned with and he has met his match in Victoria who is ready to bring Saint to his knees, but not if he gets her there first. Oh what a wicked web gets weaved as Saint tries to unravel the many secrets that Victoria is hiding as she tries to get close to get the information she needs. Like a moth to a flame, Victoria just can’t keep away from Saint even as he keeps bringing her closer to shattering her resolve as he gets her to bare more of her soul with each encounter. But even the mighty Saint has a weakness and as Victoria gets further under his skin, Saint will have to use every ounce of his brilliance and cunning to pull off the plan to not only save Victoria, but the future he never knew he wanted. Every story just seems to surpass the last as we get pulled in deeper with the seven and I can’t wait to read the next book for Weston’s story.
