#Dagger'sEdge #NetGalley
#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. . .AMAZON 4.5 STARS
#Dagger'sEdge #NetGalley
Intense story and intense main characters. The book does start with a bang and lets you feel the fear that's being dealt with right from the Prologue. It really had a lot of twists and turns and plenty of danger in this story. Also some pretty dark people in the book, doing some pretty awful things. I am glad that it didn't go real deep into that part. But it was enough to make you shiver. This is definitely a book for adults. Ivan and Syn both had some very dangerous enemies but at least Ivan had more resources when it came to fighting them.
I really did enjoy the mysteries in the book. The only thing I will say is that the sex scenes in the book probably put this in the erotic category. They had sex often and it was pretty detailed. I probably would have enjoyed the book at bit more if there had been less of it. The one good thing about their relationship was that there was one developing between them.
Syn was a really brave, creative woman when it came from escaping and hiding from her family and the fiancee that was being forced upon her. So many people had lied and betrayed her and family was right at the top of that list. At least two family members didn't lie but that didn't make them good. They were cruel and they tortured her with the truth of how little she mattered to them other than obeying what they told her to do. She wasn't loved, she was a pawn to be used by them and they were smug about it when she did find out. But Journey Taite (her real name) was not going to go quietly into the night without a fight. Crimsyn Delaney was one of her running names but "Syn" was the nickname that Ivan gave her.
Ivan has quite the interesting surprises for the reader when more information comes out about his background. I'm not telling though, you can enjoy it like I did as it comes out. I will say though that there are good secondary people in this story too.
