My life has been a series of battles and responsibilities I never wanted. Each day, I woke to face a life where everything had been decided for me, and I had to fight for even the barest sliver of anything that mattered to me.

Now, I have the Mortemous crown that I was groomed to take but never really wanted. It's a kingdom I don't care for that comes with an army of men I despise and cannot trust.

Then, I took her.

I shouldn't keep her here, but my soul refuses to let her leave. I need her. I need her fire, and her passion ignites something inside me that I thought was long lost. Everything she's been told about me makes her hate me. They're right, after all. I am a monster. But when we collide, the energy between us starts to rectify things I thought I knew.

The race is on for my redemption, and I'm starting to realize...

I can't do it alone.

Adrenaline Rush

I'll admit that I walked into this book not entirely sure that Jacob would be a redeemable character (much less good enough for our firebrand Charlie). His history of being primed to be the next in line after his piece of *work* dad had me wondering how this would work...brainwashing being a thing...and the questionable nurture environment also being a definite thing. I was pleased by the outcome and enjoyed his character as it developed. I knew Charlie would have her hands full...and it was great to see Jacob having his hands full too. 🤣 We also got to see more of Jaxon (Mia's baby-daddy) and his tough-but-squishy personality. I'm really looking forward to seeing him develop into the father he wants to be for his girls!
The action was fast-paced and kept me on the edge of my recliner, and the character development was on point. I also enjoyed the introduction of some interesting side-characters. And the waxing scene had me laughing until I cried...and is completely relatable. I'm so glad this wasn't a duet. I wouldn't have been patient for a part 2. Lol!

Great going, Ellie, and I can't wait for Jaxon!

This one was hard

I had a difficult time with this book, in fact I had to leave it for a long while. We don't learn much about Charlie in the earlier stories so it was hard getting a connection. Early on she came off as an immature brat. She knew what life was like in Jake's world but didn't seem to think she should pay attention. Then, all the violence got to me and I semi abandoned the book. But I wanted to know how it ended and how Jason gets to his girls. So, I came back and I finished.

Jake's Redemption

I have to be honest and admit that I didn't know if she could do it. I didn't think he was actually redeemable. But she did it. She totally redeemed him and now he is my favorite.

This couple is FIRE

Charlie’s hair isn’t the only thing on fire in this book. Jake & Charlie’s chemistry can’t be doused. These two had a lot to get through to be where they are both individually and as a couple. I truly don’t think anyone else could have seen Jake & loved him so deeply for who he was in the inside. Charlie may be the quiet & sheltered Ghost, but she’s also the most intuitive. She sits back & observes. She is the perfect catalyst to bring two worlds together. That ending fight scene...iconic!! And that ending to set up the next book....gimme gimme gimme!!!!!
You did my man #2 right Ellie!!
