"If DeVon Ricci thinks I'm going to apologize for what happened, he's sorely mistaken. I don't care how hot the sex was, or even if he sometimes seems like he's going to be a decent guy, I'm not asking for forgiveness. I don't need it. I've done nothing wrong. We were never anything to each other but two nights of great sex." "Why, then, am I still drawn to him?"

When DeVon Ricci discovers that his perfect Krissy Jensen isn't so perfect after all, he retreats back behind the walls he's put up to keep himself from being hurt. As truths begin to reveal themselves, DeVon must decide if loving Krissy is worth the risk of a broken heart. Can Krissy and DeVon finally put aside everything that's tried to come between them and admit what they've both felt from moment one? That, together … they're perfection

My Review:

I wasn’t sure if I was going to enjoy this series after reading the first installment, as I thought the main character was a sadistic prick. But I am glad I hung in there as he began to show different facets and I saw a glimmer of hope. While he is still pretty much a bastard to most by the end of the tale, he is somewhat lovable, and actually has a beating heart some redeeming qualities. The book is easy to read and easy to follow. The erotic fantasy and musings are edgier than the sensual scenes, and may be disturbing to some. M.S. Parker always brings the steam.

My Review:

I almost always struggle when reading a series, especially when there has been a considerable time lag between installments. I typically start off feeling a bit lost as I have either forgotten or confused most of the secondary characters, as well as many of the salient details about the story. So it took me a few chapters to find my sea legs with this book, as the beginning of the story had me truly muddled. When I finally started making connections and settling in, the story took off like a rocket and I was holding onto my precious kindle for dear life. We find there are many deep and hideous secrets that go all the way around and circle several times to surround this small yet intense group of people. There is a bit of everything in the mix, humor, suspense, illness, pregnancy, sass, drama, angst, tears – someone is always crying their eyes out – tenderness, abuse, brawling, heartache, and oh yes… deliciously steamy sensual scenes. It was a long and involved story, and I enjoyed several nights of sleeplessness and subsequent book hang-overs – so worth it! Ms. Webb has concocted a well plotted and intriguing story that I don’t think I could ever tire of. She is devious in sprinkling details about and parceling out its-and-bits of information to keep me involved in the story, and unable to put my kindle down. She is a wicked woman, even though my eyes are red and my head is sore and wooly, I am already feeling restless and tapping my foot while waiting for her next one.
