Title: BLACK SHEEP
Author: Zara Cox Series: Dark Desires, #2 On Sale: March 14, 2017 Publisher: Forever eBook: $4.99 USD In a family of cold-hearted black sheep, I, Axel Rutherford, am the blackest. My father has hated me since the day I was born. The feeling was mutual. In the shady underworld that was my legacy, Cleo McCarthy became my light. She was beautiful, passionate, and my whole world. So naturally my father had to destroy us. First he sent me away. Next he claimed Cleo as his own. But now I've returned, and nothing will stop me from taking back everything that is rightfully mine. He was the love of my life—when my life was still my own. We were young enough to believe we would last forever, Axel and I. But neither of us realized how cruel life-- and our families—could be. Now I'm trapped in a gilded cage: desired by Axel, who must never know the full truth, and controlled by his father, who would sooner see me dead than free. And I wouldn't even care, except that it's no longer only my life at stake.
Axel Rutherford has spent the last eight years trying to forget the betrayal that changed the course of his life. He’s immersed himself in everything as black as his soul and nothing has even come close to easing his pain - nothing except plotting his revenge.
Revenge on the father that took the one thing that meant so much to him and revenge on the girl who shattered his soul so completely. My Romeo. She called me that the day I took her virginity beneath the stars on the beach of our families’ adjoining Connecticut properties.
Cleo McCarthy remembers being young and in love. That was long before she became a pawn in such a dangerous game. One wrong move and innocent lives will be lost.
Coming face to face again with the only man she ever loved is almost as frightening as the look of pure contempt that crosses his sinfully gorgeous features whenever she appears. Now the stakes are far too high and if she fails to bring him back into the fold, the darkness that she has fought so hard to contain will be unleashed. But the desire between them still rages out of control and this time it threatens to reduce their entire world to ashes. I walk her down the hall and into the suite in silence. I don’t want to confess what’s on my mind for fear that I’ll spook her.
Zara Cox has just upped the ante with Black Sheep. It’s more visceral, more savage and more addictive than ever before. Her darkly lyrical prose paints a chaotic landscape that is as equally haunting as it is unnerving. And it’s that feeling of teetering right on the edge that makes this book so utterly delicious…
