We had it all.Money. Power. Love.A future carved in stone. Until it all fell apart.Burning in front of our eyes.Drop by crimson drop we were shattered. All it took wasOne second. One mistake. One life.Our vows were broken. Our marriage was fractured.Our love was scorched.The only way to earn forgiveness is to sell myself to the Devil.But how can I do that when I’m already married to a God?
Outstanding! Stunning! Just a couple of adjectives to describe this exciting, intense and deeply emotional read. Arabella and Christopher have been through fire and their journey through the consequences of events at the end of Burn, reverberate throughout this book. It is exciting with a rapidly moving plot and takes us further down the rabbit hole of conspiracy and threat.
I cannot recommend this book enough!
Just when you thought things were getting better or brighter skies are ahead the world is snatched from under their feet. Lost and angry, used by the ones who were supposed to protect and love her she embarks on a mission. He just wants to grieve and mourn with his wife his whole reason for living. They are pawns in a deadly game. Unsure who to trust because it keeps changing. He just wants to figure out what’s up with his wife will she come back, why did sheleave. but the more he finds out the more questions he has. The series continues without giving you a chance to catch your breath and get your emotions back in check. It’s an emotional roller coaster don’t blink and don’t let the kids distract you. It’s not over yet and this author isn’t going to let you rest til she’s done playing with your head and heart.
Geez Louise!! Phew… Christopher Sinclair delivered the good stuff. After finishing book 1 Burn I had a feeling that he was a determined alpha but what surprised me the most was how big his heart and his love for his wife Arabella was. I recommend reading book 1 Burn just to get to know not only Christopher and Arabella but also to get immersed in this universe.
With how Burn ended, which was emotional and tough, I couldn’t wait to find out the why’s, get answers and hopefully a happy ending.
Scorch is a fabulous romantic suspense with a beautiful love story at its center. Christopher and Arabella are a unit. Unfortunately a unit isn’t always safe. They experience a trauma which changes them forever. Irrevocably. They make certain choices which isn’t necessarily the right ones, especially Arabella who frustrated me numerous times, but what always remained a constant was their love for one another. They hurt each other but it was done out of love and because they were both lost in the wreckage of their trauma.
Christopher and Arabella’s love and connection is palpable and potent leaving no question that they are meant to be together despite their struggles. Christopher is resilient and won’t give up on his marriage. He’s one hot and loving husband who goes all the way for his wife. Swoon alert! Arabella is a great heroine but it took some time for me to warm up to her. Once I figured out her reasons and how she fought for her husband when it was needed I was convinced.
Scorch is all full throttle on the steam, romance and suspense. I needed answers and I got them. The heat and chemistry between the couple was mouthwatering and beyond sizzling.
I expected an entertaining story for Christopher and Arabella and Alexandra Silva delivered. With the epilogue she keeps expanding this world she’s created and I’m excited about where she takes the story and its characters next. Scorch is the perfect title cause damn Christopher was on FIRE.

Omfg.
Yet again the author has slayed it with a book that you won’t be able to put down from start t0 finish.
So much happens in this book that I can’t say much more without ruining anything, so do yourselves a favour and one click today!!!
Can’t even talk about how much I loved this couple and why without giving part of the story away.
I was turning pages like a mad woman then came upon the epilogue that leads into the next book…
All I can say is buckle up, you’re in for one hell of a ride.
Would give more stars if I could.
SCORCH by Alexandra Silva is book Two in the Virtues & Lies Series. This is the story of Christopher and Arabella ‘Bella’. I do feel you will love and understand this book better if you read the previous book “Burn” first. Christopher and Arabella are married but choices and mistakes were made that has them apart. Christopher is out to get back what he lost with Arabella. Of course Arabella’s heart is with him but choices were made out of protection but still caused hurt.
This series has just been a page turner for me. I love the Alpha male and the strong heroine in these stories. I look forward to one with Casper and Fleur.
Scorch is the second book in the Virtues a& Lies series by Alexandra Silva and boy is this one a hot one. It’s all about the alpha Christopher Sinclair who we meet in the first book and man is he an alpha. Christopher and Arabella are perfect together but can they overcome tragedy…that is the main question in this book. This is all about coming back from a setback and the love is already there, just both characters have to be willing to fight for it and each other.
Christopher and Arabella are great characters, both are strong, dominant and they know their feelings for one another. Like with the first book though, there are a lot of twist and turns in their story which keeps you gripped until the very end. The story keeps you pulled in which is definitely a signature of this series by Alexandra Silva. If you love romantic suspense, then this series is the one for you!
ARC received for a fair and honest review.

I knew before I started Christopher and Arabella’s story was going to be emotional because when we left them in book one they were broken angry and in despair. We see just how much he loves his wife and let me tell you she puts him through alot. Both are determined to get revenge but with so many players in this game it is hard to tell who is on which side. The romantic suspense aspect of the story sits side by side with the love thay have for each other. At times I had to take a break to regroup my thoughts because there are so many characters and so much going on that I got confused.

I have been so eager to read this second book, especially after the epic ending in book one-Burn. Once again this author doesn’t disappoint her readers, she has gifted us with a sensational love story and a thrilling suspense that has you on the edge of your seat.
I will admit I was a tad worried going in because Christopher and Arabella’s marriage seemed doomed. I also didn’t warm up to Christopher as much in book one but hold the bus, ah, I have done a complete one eighty and he is a fantastic character and I definitely like him, a lot. He’s a true alpha, very protective and caring but also determined and willing to fight for his love. Arabella I admired, even in book one, I like her inner strength and determination as well. Together they make an awesome couple but finding their way seems impossible.
There is a lot going on in this story and just when you think the pieces of the puzzle are starting to fit up pops another one that needs to be added somewhere, I loved it, the unpredictability is exciting and intriguing. One reason why I gave it all the stars possible. Get ready to feel all of the emotions in this book.
Another enjoyable aspect is the gradual build up of the characters, you almost feel like you know them intimately. The descriptions overall are on point and also make you feel like a participant not an observer, another reason for a 5+ star rating.
Wow! I really enjoyed this book! I loved how Christopher loved Arabella. I was tearing up at the prologue, and full out crying in the first chapter. They walked thru such a painful thing. Both wanted revenge. This book had a lot of characters, and some that even though were on the same side seemed shady to say the least. I loved Bella’s fight she didn’t give up! The sex scenes were hot, but after they were able to laugh at themselves. It just seemed so real. Their chemistry was thru the roof. I didn’t read Burn, but I will be going back to that story. I just can’t get enough of these characters.
