Synopsis
The only thing darker than the waters of the Louisiana bayou are the secrets it holds. I’d know—I’ve buried more than a few myself.
She was supposed to be one of them.
Then my brother brought her home—the rich politician's daughter, a real-life fairytale princess who had no place in our world. We were oil and water, and making her leave became my mission, 'til the little tag-along ended up in my passenger's seat driving cross-country. That's when we discovered a common thread... something that ran soul deep. Something hard to resist.
But no one I cared about was safe, and when she left, I made her promise never to come back.
Turns out, she lied.
Now the devil who claimed my future wants her, as well, and when I’m faced with a choice, who will come out alive?
The demons who own me?
The family who loves me?
Or the girl I wasn't supposed to fall for?
Only the bayou knows...
And its secrets die here.
My Review
'🆃🅷🅴 🅱🅰🆈🅾🆄 🅽🅴🆅🅴🆁 🆃🅴🅻🅻🆂'
Is a full length slow burn age difference romance book by author Chelly St Clair. Spoken in 'Duals POV's. Silas and Ivy
It felt like I’d been transported to the Bayou, the quaint little house on stilts, the noises of the wildlife, the crocodiles and our hero’s very own bayou dialect. This book consumed me, I’ve never wanted to reach the ending with a book as with this one, I wasn’t ready to leave this world or these characters.
I laughed, I sighed, I cried, I swooned, these two are unforgettable.
🦋 Unique, unpredictable, unputdownable. 🦋
This book had everything I could ever ask for and more, a little bit gritty which may cause triggers for some so just tread carefully when purchasing as it does deal with rape, it’s not easy to read but this does get the HEA it deserves.
These two destroyed my heart, they were beyond perfect for each other, the push and pull, the outside influences tearing them apart had me reading on the edge of my seat.
Our hero was perfection, my heart was in his hands from the very beginning, the life he was thrust into could've swallowed him whole if it wasn't for the love of his family, but it's also that family he had to protect more than anything, making my heart break even more for him.
Don’t be fooled by our rapunzel heroine, she’s no weeping willow, she was sassy, a wee bit gullible, but could hold her own against our hero, she was so easy to connect with and love.
This is definitely a book that will forever stay in my heart and mind for a long time to come.
