Breathless release of The Princess

Hi, book buddies :-) I've been waiting for this release with so much excitement. Lisa Renee Jones writes spectacular suspense romances and THE BASTARD ended on a very edgy note. 

Here is my review of this book, and today I bring you the continuation, THE PRINCESS. And guess what, there is a third one! :-D


MY OPINION

Smart, intense, and beautifully sensual. It couldn't have been any other way with this author.

Harper's fate was at peril at the end of The Bastard. This second part starts on edge, in stark contrast to the stormy emotional state in which this shaken couple has left things. Dangers pursue them as they try to repair the damage that had sliced them apart. It confused me at first, that sudden change of heart on Eric's side, but after a few thrilling chapters, the sequence of events got clearer.

Eric surprised me so much. He's got a palpable presence, practically vibrating with fury and vengeance which paints the narrative with growing tension and a sense of urgency. Harper is bonding with him and sets herself the heady goal to save him from himself. This woman is pure love and selflessness. While "the bastard" is a honed weapon that could scare professional killers :-D He's acutely menacing in his quest to protect Harper, yet lethal in his ambition to snuff his enemies. I also found it very interesting to learn more about his mind state and how he functions.

I relished the passion this couple shares. The words that describe the emotions while they struggle from fear to need and loyalty are astoundingly intense. It really hooked me the way the plot digs in Eric's past, his family's dirty deals, and this man's thinking process.

There is murder and mayhem around this couple, and the tug-of-war regards their survival against an unknown enemy and an emotional turmoil that might take a toll on their bond. That was gripping till the very turbulent ending. Now I really, really need to know all the secrets behind the codes and the smokescreensI Harper may be a princess, but she's ready to fight for her love and her life. So addictive :-D  


Favourite Quote:
How long until he breaks my heart? Because he will and yet when I'm with him I can't seem to care.

Every moment feels like it could be our last.




The second book in the Filthy Trilogy - Eric and Harper's story continues...

He's the bastard of the empire, a savant, a genius, and a self-made success. He left it all behind, but he came back for her. 
Their passion is a flame that ignites more than their bond. It ignites secrets, lies, and a puzzle that once solved, will shake them to the core.
You know one deep, dark secret, but you do not yet know anywhere near everything.

ENJOY AN EXCERPT

I forget everything but him. How can I not? He owns me. That was my fear, but I don’t feel fear now. No fear at all. But there are other emotions, a swell of unnamed emotions overwhelming me. We’re in his territory, his home, the danger and darkness of this night, driving confessions and intimacy to a whole new level. “I’m not just going to f*ck you, Harper,” Eric promises. “I’m going to make love to you.” 
Love.
I spoke that word to him, so hearing it on his lips shouldn’t send shockwaves through me, but somehow it does. It shouldn’t make my chest expand with fear that I didn’t feel moments before, but it does. I both want him to love me and fear the moment he does. With love comes real pain when he tells me to walk away and gives me a shove when he doesn’t really follow, because he decides the bastard and the princess can’t survive. 
My walls erect. I need to protect myself. “What happened to f*cking the princess and leaving her behind?”
“We just had this conversation. I’m not leaving you again.”
“And yet you told me to leave.”
“I did,” he says. “But I’m a bastard, remember? And not just any bastard. I’m the one who wants you too damn much now to do what’s right. You run. I’ll run faster. I’ll come for you.”
Heat rushes up my neck. “F*cking me is safe,” I whisper. “F*cking me is—”
“F*cking you is perfect,” he says. “And I will f*ck you, Harper. Every way I can think of and every day, but right now, I’m going to show you more than the bastard. I’m going to make love to you.” His lips part mine, his tongue stroking deep, stroking long, exploring, and the demand I’d felt in him when he’d snapped is nowhere to be found. There is just this sultry, sexy, caress of his tongue that seduces me and tears down my walls. 
I am his to do with as he pleases. I am his to please or otherwise. I think he really will break my heart. I think he knows it, too, but it’s too late to turn back. We’re on a path together that must be traveled, no matter where it leads.
