AlaskaI lie to one of the city’s most ruthless men.
And it feels so good.
Deception is a drug, and I’m quickly becoming an addict.
Each time we speak, Zuko has no idea it’s me.
The lie tastes sweet leaving my mouth.
I couldn’t stop now, even if I wanted to—which I don’t.
He thinks our conversations are more than just sex. He’s wrong.
The intimacy he feels is all a facade.
Until the day an embodiment of my darkest fantasies walks into my bar, and his unmistakable voice sends a shiver down my spine.
It turns out I’m not the one in control.
But when he calls tonight, and he will, I’ll be ready…
… with a lie.
Zuko
My job is to hunt. Dispose of problems like they never existed. And I’m incredibly good at my job.
It’s brutal and violent. But, then again, so I am.
I crave destruction. Death is merely a consequence of my dark pursuits.
And I won’t lose a wink of sleep over it, either.
Nothing bothers me.
No one affects me.
Except the vixen with the lilac hair.
When I reveal my true self to her, she laughs it off, enticed by the game we play.
She’s keeping secrets.
And I know all about prying information out of people.
She won’t like my methods.
But I’ll keep playing her little game until I decide what to do about her.
I can’t tell if she is destined to be my wife…
… or my next victim.
My Review
I am a fan of this author's books. As soon as I see a new book every time, I know I have to read it. T.L. is an automatic read author for me! She writes her characters as bada$$. This book is no exception. I could not get enough of Sage/Alaska and Zuko.
Alaksa is very sassy. I love how she interacted with Zuko in the beginning. She definitely had him wrapped around her finger or should I say his "unlimited black card". Even his two brothers, Kyson and Kenzo knew he had it bad. The brotherly ribbing that they gave him was entertaining. I am so happy to see that both brothers will also get their own books.
Where can I get a guy like Zuko. The way that he would get down on his knees and worship Alaska is HOT! All the s#x scenes are so spicy. Um, yes please and thank you.
