Blurb

I should have resisted him, but I couldn’t. My addiction to him was all-consuming, the high from his touch unlike any other.
Without him, I couldn’t focus, couldn’t think, couldn’t breathe.
With him, I hated myself for being too weak to fight the devil himself.
And Tyler Burnham was the devil.
He used me.
He lied to me.
But he loved me. And he still does.

Unable to stop thinking about the man who deceived her, Mackenzie Delano struggles to move on with her life and forget that Tyler Burnham ever walked into her life. But she still aches for him, despite his betrayal. Her mind is at war with her heart, a war that could be the difference between living and dying.

Tyler Burnham is lost without Mackenzie. As he contemplates the meaning of everything, he tries to find a way to prove that his feelings for her are true. That he would walk through fire to keep her at his side. That he would sacrifice it all…his career, his fortune, his life…to protect her.

The truth is, he may just have to…

Recommended for readers 18 & up due to strong language, explicit sexual situations, and graphic violence.


This is the second book in a two-book duet, which must be read in order. If you have not yet read Chasing The Dragon, please start there.

REVIEW

Slaying your heart and tainting your soul - Brilliant!
5/5

Intense.

Hot and heavy.

Emotional.

Dark.

Angry.

Addictive.

Those are just some of the words that come to mind when I think of this story. Jesus. After everything that happened in the first one, I couldn't open my kindle fast enough when I realized the ARC was sent!! Being so thankful that I had the day off that day because lord help anyone that could have interrupted those addictive hours that I had with Tyler and Mackenzie..

This is was an even bigger roller coaster ride than how their story evolved in the first..

Tyler has this huge secret and though I will myself to hate him or even so much as "tsk" at his choice in keeping it from her, I just couldn't do it! There was so much riding on why it was a secret in the first place and saying my heart was leaping all over the place with not only Tyler's story, POV and overall mindset, but with the way that everything turned out. GUHHHH..

I just want to spill out everything and let out my not so sane emotions escape but dammit. I can't. You guys better read this duet and then report back to me because I need more Tyler in my life!!

Saying that their chemistry was off the charts or that those sexy scenes *wink wink* would make you blush all sorts of sinful shades, would be like saying tattoos on alpha males is hot. Yup. That would make it a complete understatement.

Prepare to have your heart ripped in two.

Your soul to be tainted a new sinfully sexy makeover.

And.

For your mind to run wild over knowing what you could possible read after SLAYING THE DRAGON. Cue the evil stare on the TBR pile..

Thank you so much to T.K. Leigh for providing an ARC copy and for having my heart slightly ripped apart. It's all okay though. I don't mind. The pain is worth all those emotions but there better be more Tyler or Tyler like characters? Yes? ;)

Excerpt

“Wait, Mackenzie!” Tyler cried out after me. “Tell me what you want me to say and I’ll say it! Letting you walk away from me once was the biggest mistake of my life. I won't do it again.”

I spun around just as I was about to open the front door. “You let me walk away from you?” I hissed, my teeth clenched.

“That’s not what I meant.” He ran his hands through his dark brown hair and I could see the desperation wash over him. “What I meant to say is all the lies, all of it… I’m so sorry I put you through it. But do you think I regret any of it?” His eyes grew more intense and impassioned, his chest heaving as he poured his heart out to me. “Not for a second.”

I glared at him, waiting for him to explain.

“If it wasn’t for all the lies, for my assignment, I never would have met you, so I’m not going to say I regret a fucking second of any of it. I don’t care what it takes to win back your heart. You can push me away all you want. You can tell me you’ll never forgive me, that there will never be an us again, but I will always come back for you. A hundred times. A thousand times. I will fight for us until I take my last breath.”

He stepped toward me, grabbing my hand in his, caressing my knuckles in such a delicate way that made me want to melt into a puddle.

“Please, Mackenzie…” He leaned toward me, brushing his lips against my forehead, kissing me so delicately, so lightly. “Serafina,” he whispered, “tell me what it will take and I’ll do it.”

Despite everything he had just said, I simply couldn’t let him back in. Relationships were based on trust, and Tyler took my trust and used it against me. I couldn’t forget that, no matter how much my skin yearned for his touch.

“You want to know what it’s going to take?” I asked softly, freeing my hand from his grasp.

He nodded, nervous anticipation radiating through his body as he looked at me with eager eyes.

“It’ll take one more time,” I murmured, opening the door. Peering over my shoulder, I saw his deflated expression. “It will always take one more time.”
