KARA
There he was with his piercing blue eyes and Lucifer black hair.
He was leaning against the wall, a lollipop in his mouth, hot as hell and twice as dangerous.

CAM
She looked so soft, harmless, like a pretty kitten, but she was as safe as a ticking time bomb.

The two combustible personalities are faced with unavoidable off-the-charts chemistry. But when Cam's dark past shows up, he'll have to slay his demons and lay himself on the line to win Kara, body and soul.

MY REVIEW

I really enjoyed the electrifying battle of wills between Cam and Kara and the odd laugh out loud moments in this book. Both characters are independent and very abrupt. They don’t suffer fools gladly.

From the beginning, their tempers and the passion they have for each other flared. Misunderstandings abound and there is not much communication between the two besides the heated fights. Although this may be a deterrent for some, I believe the avoidance and the miscommunications are true to both characters. They do not trust easily and have a hard time showing emotion.

With that being said, however, I found the pace eventually lagged. Their miscommunications and sparring lasted at least three-quarters of the book.

The last quarter was left for the unravelling of secrets and the opening of their minds and hearts to each other. Although well executed, it felt rushed. The ending itself feels unfinished because of this.

There was so much build up when it came to his mom as well and it seems that thread just died. Almost like it was not part of the plot line when it seemed that she should’ve been. I was disappointed that there was no follow through on this and the fact that there was no epilogue.

I received an ARC of this book via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
