Here's the latest from Taylor Lark and Cora Rose: "Vigilant." It's the third novel in their new series, The Firm.
["As the eldest brother and leader of The Firm, I take my responsibilities very seriously. There’s nothing I won’t do to keep my family safe. Staying vigilant, always thinking ten steps ahead, and holding the pieces of my life together with steady hands. Control is everything, because if I loosen my grip for even a moment, the darkness I’ve buried inside will claw its way free.
Everything is stable. Predictable. Safe.
Until Neo.
He’s a distraction I can’t afford but a temptation I can’t seem to ignore. My darkness is drawn to him; it wants to be set free.
And as our enemies close in, Neo becomes the one variable I can’t control… and the one risk I find myself wanting to take. Because for the first time, surrendering to the dark doesn’t feel like weakness.
It feels a lot like love."]
Love at first sass.
Wylder was fucking gone before he knew what was happening. Same with Neo, but Neo at least has the emotional intelligence and self-awareness to know what he was feeling for Wylder. Wylder kept pushing his self-awareness (and monster) back into the "I'm straight" box until the box was obliterated.
And it was obliterated in all of the best ways.
I'm obsessed with these two. They were pining and punishing themselves for pining. There was so much angst. But at least they didn't make me cry.
On one hand, I'm upset that we're not getting the Harley/Jules story next. On the other, I am not intrigued as fuuuck that we're getting Samson's next. Oh, he's going to fall soo hard, soo fast. Cupid karma with some mixed morals. CanNOT wait for the next one!!
Trigger Warnings: toxic and abusive parents, foster care, murder, violence, blackmail, torture, and more.
