📖Book Info

I loved him…

And he destroyed me.

Five years ago, Brooks Saxton left me at the altar. Now I’m breaking into his billionaire fortress in the dead of night, desperate enough to steal from the man who once owned my heart.

He’s ruthless. Powerful. Untouchable.

I’m broke, disposable, and still haunted by the way he said I don’t.

When he catches me with my hands in his safe, I’m suddenly trapped between the man who destroyed me and everything I tried to forget—hate, need, and secrets sharp enough to draw blood.

He thinks I’m a mistake he buried. I know he’s my downfall.

But the man who ruined me still wants me.

And this time, walking away will cost us both everything.

From the USA Today Bestselling author of Bad Billionaires, Elise Faber, comes a brand new billionaire series! These protective, possessive businessmen fall hard and fast for the women they love…and then never let them go.

💭Our Thoughts

Kittens😺 Killers 🔪and Kisses 💋 all come together in this Second Chance Romance

Briar was dumped at the altar years ago by her supposedly forever love, Brooks

The man who had rescued her from hell.

The man who promised she would never again be hurt.

He lied!

His decision that day would lead to her life once again becoming a living, breathing nightmare.

One that she could not escape from, no matter how hard she tried

And she tried. She had the scars to show for her attempts.

When her newest assignment is Brooks, she finds herself facing her past and her future.

Brooks meant well the day he walked away; he truly believed he was protecting her.

Now that he knows the truth, he has no intentions of letting her go ever again.

Everything happens pretty fast here. There is not a lot of detail about what happened during those five years to Briar, but we do get the basics. I highly recommend reading the books before this one so you can get the intended experience. There is a lot of backstory in the previous books that isn't covered in this one.

I want to say it is a quick read, but I think it was just that I couldn’t put it down

This is one of those second-chance romances where he thinks it's okay to make decisions that affect both their lives because he is "protecting" her, only for that decision to go completely FUBAR, and all those best intentions fly right out the window.

I so loved Briar’s character. She has lived through virtual hell and still has a heart of gold.

Watching her embrace each new chance to heal, stripping herself of the bonds that imprison her.

Add in the opportunity to watch Brooks as he steps up and fulfills his promises to her

*heart melt*

They were just so good together.

There is some angst and some suspense, as well as a little surprise visit from our maybe/maybe not villainess

However, I felt like their reconnection and Briar's healing were really the focus here.

I highly recommend the series.

Packed with such wonderful characters that stay with you long after you close the pages.

Each new episode adds to the mystery and keeps the reader guessing.

Who is behind the sabotage?

How are they getting past their defences?

What is really happening with our villainess?

Is she a willing participant, or is she being coerced?

Find out in the next episode ...

(I couldn't resist) Just one click, you won't be disappointed.
