The crackle of fire igniting between us. He was dark, dangerous, and secretive. He came into my life like a storm, ripping apart everything I believed in, everything I thought I knew. With his mischievous smirk, stunning looks, and alluring behavior I should’ve ran as far away from him as I could. But I was stupid. I trapped myself in his web. I thought I was safe with him.

Turns out Christian Russo was the past I was running from, and my first mistake was ever thinking I could escape him.   *This is a dark stalker-mafia romance.

Renee’s Five Star Review

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

This is a dark romance and the third book in the Dark Lies series from J.L. Beck and S. Rena. This is also a dark romance and you will want to heed the warnings in the beginning of the book. This is the story of Alicia and Enzo. She is a girl down on her luck. She needs money and to get it she is offered a job by her friend for twenty thousand in a payoff if she succeeds with this task. However things are not going to go like she wants them too and she is kidnapped by Enzo who thinks that he is kidnapping Elena the daughter of his enemy. He needs the leverage in his family’s mafia family’s deal with the Cartel. Enzo is not a morally good man at all as you can imagine and you are going to love him at times and hate him at others. He has this really sweet side to him and then an equally dark side too. For some reason Alicia brings that side out of him. He wasn’t always kind to Alicia to say the very least but they have this connection. Alicia is in a bad situation when all she wanted was some money to cover her college tuition and now she is pretending to be someone she is not. She is compassionate and tries to understand Enzo the best she can but at the same time is going to try and escape at every possible chance. These two will have you hooked on their story for sure. I was loving every second of it and so can not wait to get the next book in my hands.
