Continuing on a dark romance kick...and oddly enough a TBR/Beat-The-Backlog kick (and ignoring my ARCs kick). Here's April Jade's "Wild Heart." It's the second novel in her Dangerous Daddies series.
["He was the man who protected my best friend… but right now it felt like the only person he cared about protecting was me.
I fell for him the second our eyes touched, my palms filling with his blood. Panic held my lungs in its fist, and though I wasn’t the one dying, I couldn’t seem to take in any air.
Then he whispered my name.
Hand on my face, he kept me from drowning. He made me stronger, and when they tried to take him away, I fought to stay by his side.
I was supposed to save him…
I should’ve known he’d be the one to save me."]
Gotta say, characters like Marcos both ruin me and wrap me around their fingers. Sweet and kind and so utterly broken by...life. He wanted to be happy and wear glitter and belong. Ivan took one look, and he agreed to all of that and more (i.e. Hay Hay). Marcos looked back at Ivan and agreed.
Their love was fierce and feral. It was a little insane but soo loving, soo accepting, soo beautiful. It was promises and protection. All of it was just...glorious in the darkness of it all.
Trigger Warnings: gun violence, graphic descriptions of murder, mentions of childhood trauma, death and accompanying grief, anxiety, and more.
