SynopsisFrom USA Today Bestselling author KM Moronova comes a brand-new compelling and addictive dark romance in her Dark Forces world.
Dark. Deadly. Irresistible.Cameron Mortem has a problem—he can’t stop killing his partners. Officially labeled clinically insane, he’s also one of the most lethal assets in the Dark Forces, a brutal underground military operation built on obedience, survival, and silence. But an experimental drug has fractured his control, making him a liability whenever someone else is on the field. As punishment, he’s thrown back into the Under Trials—a merciless boot camp designed to break the weak and sharpen the ruthless.
His one directive? Don’t kill the new girl.
Emery Maves narrowly escapes a death sentence after her own brutal crimes, only to find herself forced into the same violent world. Assigned to Cameron, she’s expected to survive the Trials and her partner's unstable nature. But Emery quickly realizes there’s more to Cameron than bloodlust and body counts. Beneath the madness lies a terrifying allure—and a strange, dangerous tenderness.
As the Trials push them to their limits, Emery must navigate the brutal demands of the Dark Forces while resisting the pull of a man who could just as easily kill her as protect her. And Cameron must fight the one urge he’s never been able to overcome.
Their bond is intoxicating, chaotic, and born of violence. And if it doesn’t destroy them both, it might just save them.

Is the first full length dark military romance book in the (Dark Forces) series and set 10 years before "Leave me behind' by new to me author K.M. Moronoa. Spoken in dual POV's. In this you'll meet Cameron (Code name Mori) & Emery (Code name Morphine)
Since I really enjoyed Leave Me Behind I noticed this newly released book set within the same world by this author and wanted to read it to see if it's a genre I want to read more of..And bugger it all it is...Looking for similar kinds of books nothing really jumped out at me..So the hunt will continue..
Like the other book (standalone) this was also inhaled. And yet again, it ticked all my boxes. Not sure why when I put this on my tbr it showed all the 3 star ratings, glimpsing at them, they all had the same common factor, that cliffy, kind of guessed one would come at me being that it’s a series. But that bitch was brutal!! There were a few unbelievable over the top bits but I didn’t dwell on those either. It’s fictional so I enjoyed it for what it is and can’t wait to read more.
Now that crappy waiting game starts for the next book.
This one had me sitting on the edge of my seat, more times than I could count. I loved these two, all the broken dark pieces of them, this even got my emotions running rampant as a character I liked failed a trial. Sadness wrapped itself around my heart.
This definitely had that hunger games feel to it, 3 levels of trials to progress through, don't get attached, don't form commitments, contestants against contestants, it's brutal, it's emotional, it's gritty, it's so damn addictive.
Don't be fooled by Emery, she's got this nurturing soft side which rears its head often, but she's got blood on her hands which is why she's where she is. I really loved her character. When needed she'd have your back, no questions asked.
Cameron was a pill popping deadman walking, the lab rat, he killed without remorse, popped pills like there was no tomorrow, to be the soldier boy they wanted, he was a deadly sacrificial killing machine that felt no pain *at all* ran faster than a speed of lightning, some would say he probably didn't have a heart. But Emery slowly got under his skin like no other.
I hope the author keeps this series going, new characters to love, the setting, the grittiness of it, definitely gets my tick of approval..
