My Copy: Ebook for Honest Review
BookWhisperer Rating:
Sarai was only fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the past nine years.
Victor is a cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But things don’t go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of another.
While on the run, Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead.
As Victor and Sarai slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor’s brutal skills and experience may not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over him may ultimately be what gets her killed.
This is their story…
If you are little for something a little different, and a lot serious this is the book for you. Killing Sarai was not your typical love story. Sarai has spent the past nine years as a princess of slaves. Being the favorite she has been given certain luxuries, but when your a slave can these things even be considered luxuries??? When she stows away with a dark and dangerous american killer her only hope was to find away across the border. What she finds is so much more in the company of this killer. This book is a realistic glance at this mysterious and deadly world. Told from a first person, but it almost seems as though the story is told at a distance because these characters still seem a mystery to even me.
