BOOK BLURB
Deformed. Dangerous. Damned.
One night ripped my life away and left me a monsterโthe scarred gargoyle of a man who lived in the stained-glass shadows of a crumbling cathedral, selling my soul in order to seek vengeance on those who destroyed my life.
Until one day, the chimes I heard werenโt from the bell tower of Notre Dame, but from the bejeweled gypsy invading my space.
Though she swears her research is legitimate, her beauty shimmers with secrets. I canโt trust glittering eyes that arenโt repulsed by me, nor the tempting smile that is laden with lust. I canโt trust her.
So, Iโll watch and waitโฆ and ignore how her sharp wit and bewitching charm scorch the shackles of my restraint and enchant me into her fire.
Iโll uncover the truth before she gets too close. Before she sees the broken man beneath the scarred beast. And before I give into her temptation.
Sheโs a threat to everything Iโve worked forโa threat to my cathedral and a threat to my revenge.
And, most dangerous of all, a threat to my stone cold heart.
Caroline's Review
๐๐๐๐๐
This was an intriguing, raw and bold read.
โI couldnโt ignore her. She was both the dark cloud of the tempest and the rainbow of temperance. She held promise of beautiful peace, but only if you could survive her storm.โ
Quinton Bossรฉ is a shadow full of secrets. A faceless man. A forgotten man. He lurks in the great cathedral of Notre Dame, as self-appointed caretaker of that Parisian stalwart, while plotting his revenge on a man who ruined his face and his life. When an exotic stranger with her gypsy looks, colourful clothing, and chiming jewellery invades his sanctum, for the first time in years, heโs unable to turn away from her. No matter how hard he tries, she seems just as fascinated by him as he is by her. He is unable to keep away from her. But, at what cost because there is no room for love in his life.
โI felt him. I breathed himโฆHis hurt. His secrets. My skin rippled with their proximity.โ
Esme St. Claire leads a pretty nomadic life. An expert in medieval architecture, she is beyond ecstatic to get the commission to map out the stunning Notre Dame. She never expects to meet a man who intrigues her endlessly. In spite of his shocking, scarred face, she is helplessly drawn to him and she wants to know all his secrets, all the while keeping secrets of her own.
โHe was the most beautiful beast Iโd ever seen, and I wanted more than just his bite. I wanted his f*ck. And then, I wanted him. Secrets, lies and every shadow of gray in between.โ
This was such a boldly-written story. I loved the Paris setting and incorporation of the semi-destruction of Notre Dame. Itโs interesting that this story released around the second anniversary of the fire at the cathedral. The author wove a captivating and intricate story about Quinton and Esme. Their attraction was electric and their love was deeply passionate and fiery. Quinton was dark, broody and bitter. Esme was colour, light and heat. The two of them together brought a balance that each was missing. The whole story was graphic, raw and edgy with solid background descriptions, and a cunning plot. Looking forward to the concluding book to this duet.
