I’ve been watching you.
I feel like I’ve been watching you forever.
It started as revenge. You were a means to an end, a way to pay your father back. To avenge my sister. Her death. Her life.
But it turned into something else.
An obsession.
An addiction.
Dangerous. Unwanted. But, maybe, inevitable.
And so here we are.
I’m sorry, Kerri… I didn’t want this.
I didn’t want to shatter you.
But you should know...
You make me weak.

MY REVIEW
Kerri is a confident female in almost every aspect of her life except intimacy. As past trauma has made sure of that. She frequents a secret industry sex club to experience the intimacies, reactions and acts she can only dream about. She loves to play a cat and mouse games with the patrons knowing she is in control. But, there is one man that will turn the tables. She will become the prey to his hunter. Trouble is coming her way and he is looking for revenge. Can she trust the happiness and fulfillment she finds with Trouble? Will Trouble ever see Kerri as more than a means to an end? I loved this book! It has the perfect balance of passion and emotional moments. The sensuality right from the beginning is enough to get you heart pounding and the chemistry is off the charts. I believe the revenge aspect could have played a bigger part in their story because, as it stands, it takes second seat to the fact that it’s a secret. I also feel like Kerry’s trauma was not resolved enough. There was no closure for me. There was nothing at the end to indicate she has moved on from this trauma or what happened to the guilty party. I definitely recommend this as one-click material. I received an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
EXCERPT
Sometimes you meet someone, and they own your soul from the moment your eyes touch. Sometimes they turn out to be everything you want them to be, surpassing even your greatest expectations.
But sometimes, it’s all a lie.
Every move.
Every conversation.
Every touch.
The spell that grabbed you, trapped you in its erotic, painfully beautiful, dark-dark web, was nothing but a dream.
That’s how I’d describe it. How I’d describe him.
Trouble.
I turn up the volume. Neil Young’s haunting voice echoes in my car as I speed down California’s infamous Pacific Coast Highway. “Harvest Moon” speaks directly to my soul.
It’s late in the night, and the dark ocean stretches out into oblivion beside me. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so empty. Or alone.
I don’t want to cry. I can’t cry.
I’ve survived much worse. So much worse.
I won’t let him be the one to destroy me. Not him. My hands clench the steering wheel as I fight to stay strong.
He was supposed to protect me.
He said he always would.
I thought he loved me. I thought that after years of emptiness, I made him feel whole again.
But he was lying.
About everything.
Every word. Every moment. Every touch.
It was all a lie.
He played me from the moment we met.
