Great dark read. The Hero, Jackson, is out for revenge against a woman he once knew and trusted who set him up, who he thought died six years ago. When he finds out she is still alive, he sets her up and brings her to a remote island where he owns her for a month.
However, the woman who set him up is the heroine’s twin and she did die six years ago. Surprise! Also the Hero and heroine have met once on the night the sister died. In the sisters bed, but the Hero thought it was the sister that time too.
Interesting story, ends on a cliffhanger. There are also a lot of questions around what really the sister did and why for some reason everyone in Hannah’s family (not just her twin Harmony) has been murdered. Her and her aunt were living in Tahiti on cash and making sure never to be pictured on the Internet or anything, so they were definitely in hiding and not from Jackson.
This was an excellent read! I feel like many of the billionaire sub genres are too similar to one another but this one is incredibly unique! So much tension in Jackson and so much apprehension in Hannah. Now that they are there, I can’t wait to find out what happens or if he ever realizes that Hannah isn’t Harley. Very good read!
I read Everly’s first serial series, Under His Command and loved it so when I heard she was releasing another hot series I had to get my hands on it. I was lucky enough to get an ARC and I decided NOT to even read the synopsis or the introduction of the book in the beginning. For one, I knew I would be hooked and second, I wanted to be surprised and I was correct on both accounts. Because of that I will make the summary quick.
Hannah and her twin sister Harley might look the same on the outside but completely different on the inside. hannah is sweet where Harley is hard. Hannah doesn’t know what kind of enemies Harley has made but she will soon find out.
Jackson is out for revenge and now his plan is set. His life was ruined because of Harley and he will do anything to ruin hers. His plan is to control but it is also sinfully sexy.
Seriously, this story is fucking h-o-t! Jackson is domineering and damn if he is an asshole but one that knows how to give pleasure with just enough pain. The storyline is unique, I was intrigued from the start and the suspense kept me there until the end. I can not wait until the next part and luckily it’s not a long wait.
Quotes:
His kiss was dangerous, wild, and unlike anything Hannah had experienced before.
She was fucking beautiful, delicate and deadly, like a flower infused with poison.
She was a self-respecting woman. She didn’t want to be a man’s whore, but in her secret heart, she did yearn to be owned.
*Read it when it was first released under Lili Valente.
When I started this book I realized after a couple of pages that I had read it before. I read it anyway and it brought back the push and pull between Jackson and Hannah. And even though I don’t have time for a full series re-read, I urge you to read the whole story, as long as you can handle Jackson’s heavy hand.
Shorter book. First time reading anything by Lili Valente. It was a pretty good book and will be continuing to read on!
This was the beginning of the story of Hannah and Marine billionaire arms dealer Jackson Hawke.
he wants to get his revenge.. someone betrayed him a few years ago and he is desperate to find her and finally make her pay, for all the years he had to suffer behind bars..
she was beautiful and submissive, she didn’t know what her twin sister did, she only wanted to save her things, her family, and memories.. but things are not what they seem and she can pay for things she didn’t do if he doesn’t realize soon enough the mistake he is making..
it was a good start with so many questions and answers to be solved..
WOW!! Extremely well written story and characters! Not usually a Dom/Sub reader but this was well done! Vastly superior to 50Shades!!
