❝ Those who made the ones I love suffer are going to pay. I will inflict a lifetime of pain because Aleksei Popov is back...but unlike before, I have so much more worth fighting for.❞ … and Santiago sure delivered when it came to his and Briseis pleasures! This was a far more enjoyable read than ‘The Land Where Sinners Atone’. It was surprisingly steamy and I loved how Briseis threw away her good girl image and submitted to her desires. It had all the elements V.F Mason is known for in all her serial killer romance: dark twisted characters, old faces that make reappearances who also contribute to the storyline, hot and heavy chemistry and the perfect amount of romantic suspense that has drawn you to the pages. Now the wait begins for one of the other Four Horsemen (Remi, Florian, and Octavius) to claim their women so I look forward to how their story unfolds.
