Publisher's summary

Jealousy. Lies. Betrayal. Murder.

A toxic love triangle erupts into dark obsession.

Logan is poison and Kristen knows it. His lust for drugs, sex, and danger has spiraled out of control. Yet every time she tells herself it’s over, his seductive power draws her back. Caught in a vicious cycle of love and hate, she is on the verge of insanity.

Until Jake.

A protector by nature, Jake needs Kristen to fill the void in his life. Together, their worlds are rattled by a love so powerful it promises to change everything.

Logan has other plans.
A master manipulator driven by fierce desire for power and control, Logan has everything he needs. Kristen seals the deal.
So, what went wrong?
Kristen always has and always will be his.

Jake must be suicidal to disrupt his dream.
If he thinks unconditional love and devotion are enough, he is mad.
And dead wrong.

Nothing stops Logan Holder from winning.
Not Jake’s passion.
Or Kristen’s stubborn persistence.
Not even his own tenuous grip on reality.

They say:
Obsessive love knows no bounds.
They are right.
Jake will die for Kristen.
Logan will kill for her.

good read

I received this book free for a honest review. the storyline was good and easy to follow. the narrator did an good job of keeping me interested. rhe author did a good job of mental abuse and portraying it through the book

A great read

well written and narrated. I am still trying to come to terms with Logan's actions and how blind Kristin is to all of it. looking forward to book 2 and hopefully my questions will be answered.
an overall great read

Dark twisted love triangle

Kristen, Logan and Jake are all a mess on their own. Together they are a disaster. Kristen tired of the drugs her husband Logan is involved with meets and falls in love with Jake only to go back to Logan again is a dark twisted psychological story. It’s well written and worth the listen

Hot mess!

Kristen is a train wreck. Her husband Logan is a low life who gets his moeny illegally, cheats left and right, and is spiralling in a dark world. Kristen meets Jake and she cheats too. Jake is a decent guy but he has a temper and she barely knows him before moving in with him. Kristen is constantly pulled back into Logan's clutches and I didn't undersatnd why. She's a complete hot mess. I thought she should leave both men and start a life from scratch.
I think the moral of this story is women and men alike get stuck in these horrible relationships and even though they aren't happy and know they are completely wrong stay in them. They're toxic.
The story is well-written.I think the only character I liked was Marty. She's the voice of reason which is probably why I liked her. The plot builds like a multi-car crash on the freeway.
The story is dark and disturbing. The characters are obsessive. This book is for those who can handle the vexing world of obsessive romance.

Spell binding

I have just started it to listening to this audible book. Must report that I am not finished. I feel there has been a spell cast on me and I can’t stop listening to it. I’m looking forward to finishing the audible book. When that time comes I will continue on with my review of this amazing book. The writers style instantly connected me to the characters. I would love to met her and give her my thanks for creating this spell binding book.

Troubling Triangle

This is a crazy back and forth Triangle.
It is a good story but it did seem a little long. It almost felt like a very long argument. Having said that it is refreshing to have a story with cheating and angst once on awhile. The struggle is real. Narration voice is good. Didn’t expect a cliffhanger.

Deep, dark and intense

Loved the story and the way it flowed. Intriguing characters and very different than your average love triangle story. The pace of the story was perfect and as you dig digger into this story things get intense. If you enjoy the darker side or romance and don't mind some bad language and drug use then you should definitely check this story out. I was very pleasantly surprised as this was a first for me by this author.

Unconventional Love

There are several dark things going on in this book. It's not really my type of read but I was ask to listen and review. I think it's well written but it is a dark twisted love affair with abuse, drugs, and cheating and a cliffhanger so we don't know whether Kristen will stay with Logan or go with Jake.

I received a code to listen and review. It's a strong 3 for me. Claire Riley does a good job narrating.
