An incredibly dark, and twisted story of forbidden attraction…. Brandon and Dixie are drawn to each other in spite of being from two different worlds. Brandon was brought into the white mans world from the Indian reservation at a young age by his father who offers no explanation and refuses to discuss it. If only communication between father and son had been better, things may not have gone so horribly wrong. Maybe Brandon wouldn’t have left home at 18. He would’ve known better than to trust his Uncle who now has put him in an impossible position. In one hellish night truths are revealed and everything changes, not just for Brandon but for Dixie too. “There are no innocents here. The only thing left to do is try to survive with at least part of our souls intact.”

Wow…Clarissa Wild has an amazing (or scary) mind! Brandon is a disturbed individual but he has always loved Dixie. Their relationship is a love/hate and for reasons that make sense. There is so much sad and details that are hard to read, at times. I can’t wait to read the next book Clarissa writes!
My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read.
Out of the darkness and into the flames, you too will be branded
Brandon is of Native American origin but for some reason where him and his Pops live, he doesn’t feel accepted by any of the towns people and can’t understand why they don’t live on the Reservation. When he meets Dixie, his life takes an unexpected turn and a cascade of events leads a young couple away from each other and turns love to hate.
Years later, they meet up again under dire circumstances and Brandon finally decides he wants revenge against Dixie. But this tumultuous relationship, is about to explode with all the secrets that both have.
Loved this story and it’s twists and turns! Thank you to Clarissa for my advanced copy for which I leave my honest review
Okay well that wasn’t what I expected….
First off I am a HUGE fan of Clarissa Wild. I think I have read every sinfully dark read that she has ever written. Reading her novels is an addiction and always appeases my love of all things dark. So when Branded landed into my Kindle, it was like receiving the perfect gift. With a dark and happy heart I started it straight away….
And yes a first for me, but it left me speechless….
Now don’t get me wrong I loved everything Branded, but the shocker for me was the absolute heartbreaking set of circumstances that came into play in every situation that led to the darkness and torment for both characters Brandon and Dixie.
The deviant, wicked and evil story-line was there, but it was also accompanied with anguish, despair, and sheer desolation.
And you know what?
I think it worked. Blended perfectly, Branded for me was a unique read that I fell in love with. It was a perfect mix of torment and sorrow with edges of light that I just loved.
5 stars for me
I won’t lie, this is a tough book to read. It’s dark and gritty. Dixie and Brandon are caught up in a maelstrom of lies, deceit, racism, bigotry, hate, revenge, destruction and death. There’s a fine line between love and hate. Brandon and Dixie are forced to walk it because of the actions of others. They stumble their way through this darkness and come out their other side together. But at what cost?
Totally captivating! This read kept me hooked from start to finish. It was intense, dramatic, twisted, steamy, and heartbreaking. Things are very tense and the relationship very complicated between Brandon and Dixie. Lots of emotional turmoil and misunderstandings fuel the animosity that burns in the hearts of both these characters. I thought this was a very gripping read but that is not to say I didn’t suffer from major doses of frustration. This couple’s path was far from smooth and easy and that really transferred to the reader.
Clarissa wild does it again! Absolutely loved this book, drew me in at the first page, I needed to know what happens. Brandon and Dixie two very different ppl grow up together, and fall in love but they never seem to have the timing right, they tip toe around each other for along while. Seems they have always been each other’s downfall, and now yrs later it’s no different.
This was a dark and entertaining read. It was really kind of sad, in a way, the way their families and misunderstandings stood between Brandon and Dixie. They could have been childhood sweethearts, should have been, really. But there’s so much prejudice and lies and betrayals, and soon the two sweethearts become enemies. There are some twists and turns, alot of excitement, and some sexy scenes. Definitely a book worth reading!
