She doesn’t anticipate a stolen wallet, leaving her stranded and dependent on Dean-her arch nemesis and ultimate thorn in her side.Īnd she really doesn’t anticipate waking up in shackles in a madman’s basement. When Cora attends her sister’s birthday party, she expects at most a hangover or a walk of shame. Deanįormat/Source - borrowed through KU program If you can handle the elements involved with abduction, rape, and the like, I highly suggest you read this one and experience all that it has to offer both the beautiful and the ugly.It was only three weeks, but it's burned into every cell, every vein, every tainted pocket of my soul.

But, in the end, this story proves that you can experience some of the worst, most horrible evils and still come out okay… It’s not always pretty, sometimes, it was down right devastating and I may have shed a tear or two. Because, although Dean and Cora do, in fact, find some sort of relationship in their pain, the circumstances are not ideal. This is why this is called a dark romance. And from there, they experience and deal with horrors that were so difficult to read about. But, unfortunately for her, Dean’s marrying her sister, Mandy.Īll of this seems so, completely trivial, however, just a couple chapters in, when Dean and Cora get taken. I mean, sometimes, their barbs are all in fun, but, usually Cora just loathes Dean for how obnoxious he is. Not that I haven’t read some absolutely wonderful books, but… This was just something else altogether.Ĭora and Dean hate each other. It has been a long time since I’ve been so affected by a book like this. A plan that will alter the course of their relationship, blur the line between hate and love, and shackle them together with far more than just chains.

The two people who always thought they’d end up killing each other must now work together if they want to survive.īut Cora and Dean have no idea their abductor has a plan for them.

To make matters worse, Dean shares the space in his own set of chains.Īfter fifteen years of teasing, insults, and practical jokes, the ultimate joke seems to be on them.
