RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW: Violent Delights by Jessica Hawkins




Picture



Title: Violent Delights
Author: Jessica Hawkins
Release Date: March 19th, 2019
Genre: Contemporary romance


In the de la Rosa family, old grudges run deeper than loyalty, and betrayal is a three-letter word: war. But this feud isn’t between enemies. It’s between brothers. And I’m the prize.

I was born a princess among criminals. An untouchable among thieves. Heiress to a life others have killed for, and one I'd do anything to escape. I vowed not to leave without Diego, my first love and best friend, but if his ruthless brother has his way, I won’t leave at all. Cristiano de la Rosa is a man as big and bold as his legend. Once upon a time, he was our cartel’s best soldier . . . until he became my family’s worst enemy.

A man like Cristiano will bend fate to his will to get what he wants. Even if it means dragging me to hell—and tearing me from his brother's arms.
“She is mine.” Three words from two different men.
A life, future, and love I don’t get to choose.



Caroline's Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

OMFG! Is it June, yet??!!

This is one of those stories when you can take a good guess at what is going to happen, and you so want to be right but you so DON'T want to be right, either! LOL 

"You've already met your true love."

Natalia Cruz is the princess of her father's cartel. Innocent and sheltered, but brave and stubborn, too. She also has demons that haunt her. 

Diego de la Rosa is her best friend and love of her life - the constant in her life, her rock, her future. 

Cristiano de la Rosa is the monster of her nightmares. Older, mysterious, the prodigal son. He ignites feelings which both arouse and repulse her. 

"My body drew toward his, as if he were the sun pulling me into its orbit."

Gah!! This story is like a game of chess with an opening gambit that totally sucks you in. Each character piece is introduced into the game as the story develops. All the characters have an endgame - some have their moves planned out, some make their move as a reaction to others. I spent the whole time anticipating what would happen next. I found it nail-biting and butterflies-inducing. There are lots of questions and I've come to my own conclusions but this author is good at leading you up the garden path! 

I was absolutely caught up in this story. It was thrilling, tense, suspenseful, and I loved the chemistry between the characters. I'm absolutely gagging for the next book and June can't come soon enough!! 

FYI - I'm totally #TeamCristiano! <3
