picks right up where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/?p=41459\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cruel Sanctuary<\/a> left off, and it is an exciting, intriguing, dramatic ride with a heartstopping romance that is all kinds of sexy and beautifully emotional. I was swept right back up into Damon and Aislinn\u2019s world, and I absolutely loved their journey!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>The one woman I shouldn\u2019t have has become the one woman I can\u2019t live without.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In <i>Cruel Sanctuary<\/i> we saw Damon and Aislinn come together. It was far from conventional and not a bit romantic, but their draw to each other was undeniable, resulting in a whole lot of sexy time as the controlling King of the Underground met his match in feisty, intelligent and independent Aislinn. Their \u2018relationship\u2019 was tumultuous, and we were left with a nasty cliffhanger, but that dramatic moment leads in beautifully to this book as they come to realise exactly what they have come to mean to each other and they fight like hell to get it back.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>Aislinn Granville is everything to me.<br \/>\nEvery. Fucking. Thing.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This book is fast-paced, dramatic and really exciting. Told in dual POV, we get to see everything that Damon and Aislinn are going through, and I was right there with them as they lay it all out on the line for each other.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cI\u2019m here with you, exactly where I want to be. Exactly where I belong.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s beautifully romantic and surprisingly swoony, but most of all\u2026 it\u2019s HOT! Damon is a bit of a beast in the sack \u2013 controlling, uninhibited and supremely talented, and sexy time is off the charts!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>Right now, there is no distinction between need and want, necessity and luxury.<br \/>\nAislinn Granville is both. And I want, need, must-fucking-have her.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And more than just sex, there\u2019s a growing emotion between them that is beautifully explored as they come to realise just how deeply they have fallen, and their open-hearted discussions and emotional declarations had me lost in a world of swoon.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cI don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like not to love you, princess.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But before they can claim their happy ending, they have a whole lot of hurdles to face \u2013 not only are they dealing with the ever-present dangers from the criminal world that they inhabit, but they have a newly discovered internal threat. All while they are figuring out how two such strong people can find a balance between their very different worlds to make a relationship work.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a wild ride full of intrigue, suspense and excitement, and I was glued to my kindle as it all played out. I loved the ups and downs, I love how they were handled, and I love the character development for both Damon and Aislinn as they forged their middle ground to claim their HEA. Of course we know that Damon is a force to be reckoned with, but is just as strong, showing her badassery as the fierce heroine fighting for herself and her man, and she was absolutely fantastic!<\/p>\n<p>There is an epilogue which finishes off their story beautifully, and an extended epilogue available if you sign up for the author\u2019s newsletter that absolutely melted my heart \u2013 definitely worth it!<\/p>\n<p>This is such a great duet. It started off well, and ended even better, and I loved it!<\/p>\n<p>4.5 stars!<\/p>\n<p><i>An Advanced Reader Copy was generously provided by the author in exchange for an honest
