My Review: 4/5 Stars

Dahlia only has one person in her life that matters to her. So when that person is harmed, she vows to find out what happened to her sister and why. When she learns that the person behind her sister’s attack is part of Vencor, she uses the biggest lead she has to find a way in: the Vipers. The elite college hockey team that has more than one member part of their society. She has nothing left to lose and willing to risk everything to make her plan a reality. And she sets her sights on Kane Davenport. She believes he is the lesser evil and least likely to harm her as she tries to find answers. Little does she know, he may be the worst of them all. A monster underneath his skin and one that Dahlia has provoked. She just doesn’t know it yet. Kane has spent years maintaining control. But Dahlia comes charging into his life and throws all his carefully laid out plans out the window. He thinks he can maintain control. He thinks he can wipe her from his system, but the more time they spend together, the deeper she gets under his skin until it’s too late. A wild ride for Dahlia and Kane. Another intense start to this new dark romance series where we definitely get so meet some interesting characters. Which I cannot wait for these next two books! This story had plenty of twists and turns and just when you figure one thing out, you learn something new. It’s intense and everything you expect from a Rina Kent book. I’m looking forward to seeing where this series goes.
