“Go then. F**king go to him,” he leans down to whisper in my ear, making my entire body quake, “You’ll be back though. You’ll crawl back to me, and when you do, I’ll put my collar on you so everyone knows just who the f**k you belong to.”

“Does that disgust you little runaway? Knowing that the hands that pleasure you have taken lives in your name?” With one hand still weaved in the strands of her hair, I place my other hand flat on her chest, feeling her heart as it pitter patters faster and faster. “Or does it turn you on? Knowing that I’ll gut anyone who stands between us and f**k you over their limp body as they choke on their final breaths?”

As H.C. Riley so perfectly put it in her dedication, “For all the girls who find themselves wondering what happened to the boy next door. He’s probably not the unhinged leader of a criminal organization that eats p*ssy like it’s his last meal. But Travis sure as f**k is, and he’s your boyfriend now.” Yes!! I am officially 100 percent on the Travis train, that man… he could, any day of the week, spit.. you know the rest.

First of all, part 1 had me in such a chokehold I had to pause at the end just to catch my breath. I was so stressed out and heartbroken for them. I don’t want to spoil anything, but I loved every part of this epic, spicy, devastating, bloody, redemption love story! I also loved the added little hints and introductions to the next book’s MCs. This series just keeps getting better and I love that each book plays out as its own standalone story.
