Making the best of a bad situation
As a warning, this book is very dark and has a lot of triggers, if these will bother you, you may not want to read it. That being said, this book is very well written. Kristoff was between a rock and a hard place when Magdalena came into his life. Her fire slowly changed his way of thinking until his hand was forced. You will never believe the twist at the end. The author did a fantastic job of pulling you into the story. I found myself reading the unpleasant parts because the depth of the emotion and detailed descriptions wouldn’t let me just skim over them. Overall I would consider this a win for the author.
Kristoff, my first read from Measha Stone intrigued me from the start. It’s dark and it’s twisted but so captivating that I couldn’t put it down. A brilliant addition to Blaire’s World.
A case of mistaken identity gets Magdalena Nowak taken by a man who runs a sex trafficking business. She is to be trained and sold, within a week. She has a week to escape, can she do it?
Kristoff Dowidoff is the one responsible for training Magdalena. He’s trained girls before, so it’ll be easy – that’s what he thinks.
Magdalena has a fire that Kristoff wants to spark before it gets put out. Their chemistry was there from the beginning, they just needed to realise it..
Kristoff!! Wow ok if you have read Blaire’s story well you would know how her world is. Magdalena is no different she definitely went through a lot but still came stronger from it. Kristoff man what can I say about him? he sure has a dark personally but at the same time I found him heartbreaking and sweet that I will definitely cheer for him.
Magdalena went looking for a story and got a whole lot more than she bargained for. She finds herself a slave at the hands of Kristoff. Kristoff is not a man to be messed with. He does things to Magdalena, some hardcore things, but she never loses her spirit.
This is a dark read, it’s not going to be for everyone. There were times I had to set it down and come back after a little break….but it was worth it.
Read the book and make sure to follow it with a softer read.
Can an Angel and the Devil be the same person. Meet Kristoff this latest beauty has been given to him to train ready to be sold. Magdalena had tried to get a story about this gang and now she was their prisoner and it didn’t look good. Oh I need Kristoff, the pages sizzles, a bit of everything in this story that made it such a page turner, you won’t be disappointed. Loved it. I voluntarily reviewed this book.
This is a dark, edgy, intense story and not for the faint of hearts. Magdalena is a freelance journalist that is looking into the sex trade and the Dowidoff family when she is caught and end up one of their possessions to be put up on the auction block. Andrie Dowidoff puts her education in the hands of Kristoff, he is ruthless, without a conscience and somewhat cruel. Soon he realizes that she has backbone and is willing to fight him back. The depravation and unpleasantness he unleashes on her will make you squirm and question your sanity. This dark and complex story will pull you into a world that is not everybody. I loved it but it will leave you unsettled in the end.
Measha Stone writes some of the best dark romance. Her stories are always well written and interesting. Her plots are intriguing, her characters are engaging and her world building is excellent. I highly recommend any of her books.
I loved the relationship between these two main characters. There are parts that are hard to read but the ending is beyond satisfying. If you like dark romance, don’t miss out on this book!
I really don’t know where to begin. This story is absolutely Wow. I am just speechless. The writing and flow of this book is done well. This is a read for yourself type.
OMG!!! If you follow my reviews, you know I don’t read many dark romance books but I was intrigued by this one. I decided to take a chance since I’ve read other books by Measha Stone. WOW!!! Even though this was super dark (for me), I couldn’t put it down. I HAD to know what was going to happen. To be honest, there were several places I cringed at and beware, there could be huge triggers for some, but I kept reading. Kristoff is the kind of guy you love to hate. And I did hate him at first. Oh how I hated him but as the story goes on, I began to see something in him that I actually liked. And poor Magdalena….. she was shoved into a world that she had no idea about. Through everything that happened to her, she didn’t give up her spirit. The intrigue, the betrayal, the pain and suffering was at times a bit overwhelming but you really need to read through all of that. I think this is one of the best books Ms. Stone has written. Totally loved it.
ღ If you follow my reviews, you know I love me some dark romance books
I wasn’t too happy with the last book in this stand-alone series, but I was intrigued by this on, I wanted to see how it turn out.
Magdalena is freelance journalist. & is writing a story on sex traffickers, somehow with all of Andrei Dowidoff find out & kidnaps her
It’s taken her three years to get this opportunity, and Ishe can’t blow it. Magdalena believe she can use this to her advantage. But she fast learns that , her Coming to Europe, chasing the story, may be the dumbest thing she done to date.
There were few twist in this book was such an unexpected surprise… that was main plus
– At time this story felt to rush & somewhat to short lived… but again that’s just me
Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion & my honest review Also I wouldn’t discourage anyone from reading this book.
I think that I might try Evelina: Ally Vance next in BLAIRE’S WORLD …Wish me luck
Paulette Review
Magdalena, a journalist and following a story, finds herself kidnapped and sold into trafficking. She is locked in a cage by Kristoff, who is the son of the man she is investigating. This book was a fast paced, dark read, filled with twists and turns, drama, and revenge and one I highly recommend.
This book is very dark read and will take you on an emotional rollarcoaster. There are triggers that the reader needs to beaware of. Magdalena has been kidnapped off the streets in nearby London thinking she is her sister CIA agent Danuta. Kristoff is given the assignment by his father, Andrei Dowidoff, to get her ready as a sex slave. Magdalena is a strong woman who has dark and terrible acts done to her that almost breaks her mind. She is devasted to find out that her sister is a trader and why. Kristoff has not been gentle with Magdalena, but wants her as his. Readers beware again that there are many triggers in this book. Even though Kristoff is a hard man and deals out horrific punishment, and he has the side to know that he is wrong. This author knows how to write different elements of emotion and experiences that at times made me twinge. This is a new author for me and I will be reading more of her books.
Wow oh wow.. Must read and very dark.. If you have any triggers beware this one has a them.. It was dark from the start.. I have to say one my top reads so far
Wow what a dark fast pace read that will have you loving this author. This is a first for this author that i love. This is a must read on this dark steamy twisted read that will have you reading this in a one setting and needing more of this story.
As I’ve read the other reviews from other readers, I too want to caution this IS a dark romance. Many disturbing and horrific acts are outlined in this story. You can do 1 of 2 things: gloss over those parts or take them with a grain of salt. However the brutality of those acts are just noise to what is the underlying story line.
Journalist protege Magdalena “Mags” Nowak curiosity is piqued when older sister CIA agent Danuta mentions sex trafficking that pushes Mags into her current situation. Just wanting to stay on the sidelines with her story piece, Mags queries land her in the thick of things. She’s become one of the trafficked. Kristoff Dowidoff is the son of notorious sex trafficker Andrei and he is in charge of her training. Only he didn’t expect to have feelings for Mags. This story takes places during or even before Blaire 1 by Anita Grey with reference to Russian mafia big man, Maksim. What I found amazing is the twist toward the end. Well written and ends with a HEA.
*WARNING* this book contains triggers, there are violent rape scenes, there is also violent killings, be warned.
Kristoff was raised to be a monster. Kristoff’s father uses him to “train” taken girls before sold to sadistic buyers. Andrei is head of the sex trafficking ring and father of Kristoff. Andrei is also a deviant and employees many men like himself. Kristoff enjoys being the dominant, but he is not the sadistic deviant his father is.
Magdalena is a freelance reporter who is trying to write something important, something other than puff pieces. Maybe Magdalena just wants to be more like her big sister who works for the CIA.
This was very dark and sad. I didn’t see the twist with how Magdalena was founf coming, that was a great addition even though a sad part. Inspiring to find love in such a deplorable situation. Inspiring to see a bit of change in the character of Kristoff. I think all stories have a sort of “moral” underneath and this one says to me…. People CAN change.
I would recommend this book.
Magdalena inadvertently finds herself a captive, placed into the hands of the darkly ruthless Kristoff. This was a brutal story, with Magdalena unwilling to bend, and Kristoff determined to make her heed him at every turn. I love the Blaire World, and the way this story developed was almost too fast – I wouldn’t have minded some more development between these two. But they’ve wormed their way into my heart, and I was kept on edge waiting to see how Kristoff and Magdalena’s relationship would blossom. I loved this steamy dark read.
This is the first book I’ve read from Blaire’s World, but it won’t be the last. Wow!
I cannot begin to put into words how FANTASTIC this book is! It is captivating! From the book cover, the characters, the storyline, the twists and turns, everything Measha Stone created is hands down mind blowing!
If you are a lover of dark stories, then this is for you. The story of Kristoff and Magdalena is not for the feint of heart, but I truly enjoyed this book. Magdalena comes into the hands of a not so good Russian, and her life becomes a living hell. But does her captor save her? Magdalena’s character is a strong woman, but only she can take so much. Kristoff finds that he is developing feelings for her which can get them both killed. Can they escape from the nightmare? Read this incredible story and find out!
Wow. What a dark and scary story. This will have you sitting on the edge of your chair. There is a lot of ugly stuff that happens in this story and it is hard to believe that it is still happening in today’s society, but it is an HEA.
