Book Description
#1 bestselling author Lora Leigh is back—with a vengeance—in her latest novel of passion and intrigue, Dagger's Edge, featuring the men of Brute Force.
Ivan Resnova wants nothing more than to escape his hard, brutal past. Starting over is not so easy once you’ve been a powerful crime boss but now, instead of being punished for his alleged crimes, Ivan fears that the one woman he can’t forget is in danger of paying the price.
Crimsyn “Syn” Delaney thought the danger she’d faced was over, and that she could resume her life. She never imagined it would return with a vengeance and throw her back into Ivan’s world. But when an attempt is made on her life, she needs Ivan more than ever to keep her safe—even if she is in danger of falling deeply and dangerously in love. . .
My Thoughts:
I just could not get into this book. Reading the description, I was really excited to sit down and read it but it fell a bit flat for me. It is the second book in the Brute Force series and I didn't feel like I was missing anything not having read the first one. The beginning was a bit confusing but I got the characters figured out and was expecting a good, fast paced story.
Ivan is determined to keep Journey/Syn safe. Even if he has to kidnap her...twice. The story itself was ok, very predictable but not bad. The idea of the two of them actually falling in love was a bit out there as was some of the things described that were just never mentioned again. It seemed like there was more time devoted to the sex scenes than the actual storyline and I found myself skimming it.
It was a 2/5 for me.
**18+ Definitely for older readers**
