The breathtaking first novel in New York Times best selling author Gena Showalter’s new paranormal romance series, Otherworld Assassins, featuring a black ops agent who is captured and enslaved…and the beautiful deaf girl who holds the key to his salvation…
THE SWEETEST TEMPTATION…
Black ops agent Solomon Judah awakens caged and bound in a twisted zoo where otherworlders are the main attraction. Vika Lukas, the owner’s daughter, is tasked with Solo’s care and feeding. The monster inside him yearns to kill her on sight, even though she holds the key to his escape. But the human side of him realizes the beautiful deaf girl is more than she seems—she’s his.
THE ULTIMATE PRICE…
Vika endures the captives’ taunts and loathing, hoping to keep them alive even if she can’t free them. Only, Solo is different—he protects her. But as hostility turns to forbidden romance, his feelings for her will be used against him…and he’ll be put to a killer test.
Review
I really wanted to like this book but I just couldn't get into it. Gena Showalter is a fantastic writer and normally her books are great but this one just missed the mark with me. I bought it because of the great picture on the front and the blurb sounded really cool and different.
It was different but I was lost most of the time. So many people and different characters that my head was spinning. The worst for me had to be the good angel VS the bad Devil that sat on Solomon's shoulders. I wanted to smack both of them.
Pretty much I started to skip read at this point and I think that I missed any good parts. Still that book cover is Gorgeous!
Why 2 stars? One for the cover and one for the blurb sounding so cool...
