You need a keeper, Elsa.
The first time I laid eyes on the delicious mountain of a man, Lachlan “Lock” Kelly, he walked out of the room without giving me a single glance.
You’re in trouble now.
It’s my junior year at Savage U and life is grand. Except for the fact that Lachlan Kelly lives right next door, he acts like he doesn’t know my name, and he barely acknowledges my existence.
I don’t get it. How can he so easily look away from me when he’s all I see?
The ice queen is melting…
A few angry frat boys and their arm candy make it their mission to ruin my semester and possibly my life. But I show those boys that messing with Elena Sanderson is a fatal mistake, and Lachlan surprisingly backs me up.
And when he finally gives me his attention, I greedily soak up everything he has to offer.
You’re arsenic-laced candy
Lachlan tells me I’m bad for him, but he can’t resist the pull between us anymore.
I don’t break things.
I know he’s not staying.
When he goes, he’ll leave me tangled up in memories.
I won’t play games.
His promises have a time limit, even though I’m beginning to wish they didn’t.
Even if it hurts…
We were over before we ever began.
Renee’s Five Star Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.Sweet Like Poison is a dark romance that will contain triggers for some readers. You need to heed the warnings in the beginning of the book.
Elena is a bad butt Ice Princess. She is a girl you do not want to mess with and you sure don’t want to verbally go back and forth with her. She is a girl who will protect her family at all cost too. But under all that is soft interior that just like every girl her age wants and that is friends and to be loved and when the girl loves she loves hard. Her story isn’t a pretty one and it broke my heart more times than I could count. The girl also lives under a tremendous amount of pressure too to be everything for everyone. Lock is the the guy who she really cares about, but he tries to act like he doesn’t give a crap about anything really. He actually loves her more than life itself. I do not want to get in to deep about the story as I am afraid I will give something away. I loved reading this book and it keeps you one your toes as much as it breaks your heart. This is a story that you are going to love though if you love complicated not perfect characters. I hope these two get to their forever. If they don’t I’m goign to be one upset little reader.
Julia Wolf writes sexy rockers and badass women. She’s a huge believer in happily ever afters, no matter how complicated the road to get there is.
Julia lives in Maryland with her husband and three crazy, beautiful children. When she’s not writing romance, she’s reading it. Some of her favorite things are, in no particular order: goats, books, coffee, and Target.
