I’m completely smitten with the many sides of Chris. He is such a lovely and pure man. On the other side, he’s fierce and loyal to a fault. He’s totally vicious when you mess with those he loves. He’s out for blood. I loved his conviction for everything he does. He believes in himself and in what he does.
Valeria is a surprisingly strong woman. She has always done what she needs to do to survive. Now with her daughter, she does everything for her daughter, Maria, even if it means staying with a cruel and ruthless boss of the Mexican cartel, Jorge, who happens to be her husband. I don’t want to go more into the actual storyline. This book was one of my favorites by Bethany-Kris and that’s saying something since I pretty much always love her books.
There was something about this insta-love story. Perhaps it was seeing Chris fall for both Val and Maria. My heart was all in once I knew he loved them both. I just have no resistance for a man brought to his knees by a woman and child that he loves. However, Chris was about more than love and romance. I was lost in the suspense and the NON-STOP action, it’s a complete page turner… I found myself captivated by the action and fear of possibly outcomes. Don’t get me wrong I loved the intense and serious chemistry between Chris and Val but the action… it just made this book unputdownable!
I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that… my opinions.
