Once upon a cold, dark night, a Russian killer stole me from an alley.
I’m dangerous, but he is lethal.
I escaped once.
He won’t let me do it twice.The revenge is his.
The betrayal is mine.
But so are the lies to protect the ones I love.We’re cut from the same twisted cloth. Both merciless. Both damaged.
In his embrace, I find hell and heaven, his cruelly tender touch destroying and uplifting me at once.They say a cat has nine lives, but an assassin has just one.
And Yan Ivanov now owns mine.

Wow!

Darker than Love is the first book in the Darker than Love series by authors Anna Zaires and Charmaine Pauls. This enemies-to-lovers book tells the story of Yan and Mina, and it can be read as a standalone romance. Just so you are aware, there’s a prequel called Sweeter than Hate, but it’s not mandatory to read before beginning this one.

I’ve been into bully/enemies-to-lovers stories lately, and I was so excited to read this book. Not only is it blazing hot, but the storyline is completely captivating. Mina is a strong, engaging woman, and I immediately loved her. Yan is such a complex character, and he slowly made his way into my heart. And let me tell you, when these two were together, they were explosive.

Darker than Love is a fabulous story, and I cannot wait for the next in the series!

I shouldn’t have heard the things I did. Shouldn’t have attracted his attention.

Now I feel his stare like a touch. Viscerally. Acutely.

The Russian assassin has me in his sights, and there’s only one way out.

His bed.

Good thing I’m drawn to danger.
