Resumen del Editor

My husband. My villain.

We started with death and blood.

We started with games and carnal pleasure.

Adrian and I shouldn’t have been together.

He’s wrong.

I’m wrong.

What we have is the epitome of disaster.

Yet, it’s impossible to stop.

My husband will either destroy me or I’ll destroy him.

This book is part of a trilogy and is not standalone.

the first book was better

I struggled to finish this as it was a prequel to the first book, and spends most of its time with Adrian and Lia whining about their misconceptions of each other. It was like watching high schoolers who can only think of themselves rather than imagine another's POV. There are very few hints about the underlying plot and unfortunately you have to reach the end for the biggest one. I started skipping entire chapters because the sex was a bit too SM for my tastes - Lia is truly hurt in the bedroom although she loves it. Yes, I understand broken people and their kinks is a common theme, it's just not my thing.

The performance was great and production is seamless.

obsessed, however...

ok so I'm super obsessed with this trilogy bought the second book as soon as I got a notification that it was released and Binged it.

Here's the thing... imagine how much of the issues between them could be resolved if they just clarified their actions. you know like actually talked.
Also, Leah gets on my nerves sometimes. he literally tells her she has a target on her back and it's in one ear out the other and she focuses on the wrong thing. I've heard about selective hearing, but come on that one is a little much.
I still recommend this trilogy though.

if you want to skip it....

you can skip it if you want . it's all backstory. sorry not sorry. wished a reviewer had told me. it's still a 5 star performance and still has spice. but I'm irked that nothing is resolved nada nothing. and I am starting to hate the Female Mc. pshh she's annoying and a hypocrite.

Really?

I’m near the end of Book 2, and couldn’t wait to say, that I REALLY DISLIKE LEAH. She is the stupidest, bratty, spoiled psycho, and deserves all the bad that comes her way. Geez, idiot woman get a grip.

So very good

I am loving this trilogy written by Rina Kent. I still have trouble feeling Adrian and Rai's connection except occasionally. But this storyline has me entranced. What I thought I knew from book one, just throw it out the window. We go back to the beginning and get what is actually going on. Brilliant! There are still unanswered questions from book one and two. I cannot wait to get the answers and to watch the romance completely blossom.

Jason Clarke and Desire֎ Ketchum are excellent narrators. I love their voices. They are perfect for the characters. I feel like I'm watching a movie.

prequel that fills in the blanks

I loved it. it added to the love and suspense from book one. the cliffhanger ending is good and some of the story just irritates the anxiety out of you. their love and passion is interesting and hot but also sad and frustrating but keeps you hooked!

oh wow

Okay part 2 in this trilogy was even better than 1. I really enjoyed seeing the backstory and how they got to this place. Now I have to wait on part 3 and I need to know what happens now that everything is out in the open and Lia remembers. Love a good story!!

Super Excited for Book 3!

Holy Cow! This is Amazing! I kid you not I really do think this is one of the best Series Rina has written to date! I’m ecstatic to read the last book of this trilogy, Consumed by Deception.
Dear Month of May, hurry up an get here already PLEASE!! 😍😆
Seriously a great read! I am absolutely enthralled, I can’t wait to see how everything comes together!

I Give this Book a 5/5 Star Rating!

WTF!?

Oh sweet baby Jesus!! WTF!?! Now it all comes together! How sad for Lia! Her life wa never really hers and Adrian!! Oh lawd Adrian! I felt every emotion and situation the characters were going through. The other thickens and I NEED to see how this plays out! Rina Kent, I love you but I hate you. My phone almost suffered the consequence

Loved this book could not stop listening

This is book 2 and I am still in love with the story. This is well written and it keeps you wanting more.
