Listen, this is a dark romance. It kicks off with a murder and kidnapping so things escalate quickly. The complicated “hero” adores her and would never hurt her which is what makes it all manageable. This is always what makes these crazy, dark romance stories digestible. It’s not without violence (albeit towards bad people) and one scene so graphic it boggled the mind, but it’s all so entertaining. This book confirmed that I really love S.J. Tilly’s storytelling. I liked ‘Nero’ (1st in series) and liked this one even more. I can’t wait to read ‘Dom’ (out in a few weeks as of this review). I’ll be looking into ALL of S.J.’s books now. :)
