I am the broken son.
The soulless brother.
I live in a world of power and twisted corruption that toys with life and death. I fear nothing except losing My Little Mouse. She’s my obsession.
She likes to run, and I enjoy the chase. But now there’s a serial killer chasing what’s mine. If they touch her, I’ll make sure they suffer. They have no idea the destruction I’ll unleash.
I’ll rip their soul from their body, and then feed their corpse to Allison.
Mors tua vita mea est. Your death, my life.
Renee’s Five Star Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
I was so excited to get this book in my hands. I devoured and loved Pledge Your Loyalty that Ashton Brooks and Gail Harris wrote together and I just knew that this book would be just as good too. It was amazing and I devoured it. This is a dark romance. You should heed the warnings in the beginning of the book. It might contain triggers for some readers. I read a lot of romantic suspense and dark romance and I am telling y’all now that if you miss this book you are missing something absolutely amazing. This is the second book in the Illicit Brotherhood and I highly suggest you read Pledge Your Loyalty as the plot carries though to this book too.
This is the story of Soren Carmichael and Taylor and Steffan. You are going to fall in love with Soren and we really get to know a lot about him in this book. I don’t even know if I know how to review this book and not give something away. This story is twisted and you are going to have even more questions than you do answers reading this book. Reading from Soren’s point of view is absolutely amazing. He carries around this deep hatred for his father and his actions are going to be things that you understand so much better. He is also obsessed with Taylor and you will find out exactly why. The man is going to protect her and he is more than capable because there is not a doubt that she is in a lot of danger. There just might be a huge twist you will never see coming in this book. But I loved all the connections in this book so much. You met Steffan in Pledge Your Allegiance and I have to say that I loved getting to know him even better and finding out that he isn’t just some spoiled super popular frat boy in this book. I could have spent forever in this book. I am so addicted to this series. After all there is a big who is doing it in the form of a serial killer and again you will think you are figuring things out and then bam. What you think you thought you knew was not right at all. I loved when a book sucks me in and keeps me on the edge of my seat and guessing. You do not want to miss this book. I could go on and on about it but then I might spoil something for you and I would never want to do that. Go. Run. Grab this book and become just as hooked as I am. Ashton Brook and Gail Harris are pure writing magic!!
