Goodreads...

I had a life, love, and future to give.
Until my enemy took a wife.


The devil has a name, and it’s Cristiano de la Rosa. On my wedding day, he was the last man I expected to see standing at the altar. He wants to make me his queen. His brother wants to rescue his princess.



Getting Cristiano to lose control becomes the name of the game, and the stakes are life and death. But as truth and lies blur, loyalty is tested, and our chemistry threatens to reach the melting point, the prize grows less clear. Either freedom no longer means what I think it does, or Cristiano is as devious as everyone says, and he’s mastered the art of playing my mind.



All I know for certain is that nothing is certain. And all you need to know? This is a love story.



But even love stories have to end.



My take...

Slowly we see Natalia’s walls come tumbling down, as she ever so slowly falls for Cristiano. She is still holding on to the last slivers of doubt and distrust, not wanting to believe he had nothing to do with her mother’s death. But as time goes on, it is harder and harder for her to hang on to that belief. And if I thought I couldn’t love Cristiano any more than I did in the first book, I had no idea how strong my love for him could be.


And dang, that ending about obliterated my heart. I know all has to be ok but I have seen authors do unspeakable things. I just pray Hawkins is not that ruthless. This book was torture and bliss all rolled into an expertly, crafted story. 5 Stars!
