****REVIEW****
Stylo has done it again!!!! I am a
sucker for a good romantic suspense, a hot anti-hero and a heroine that
can hold her own, and this book hits it all! I really felt like I wasn't
even reading it was more like watching a Hollywood action movie the
attention to detail was so great. The chemistry between Marc and Lily
was absolutely explosive!! While reading this book I think I burnt
dinner, forgot to wash my kids school clothes and was late to work...I
just couldn't be bothered to stop reading!!! As for a cliffy...yea it
has one but an oh sooo good one, I can't wait for
Out of Plans! Thank you Stylo for writing the nitty gritty, raw and dirty that I love!
I give this book 5 explosive stars!!!
**I was given a ARC in exchange for an honest review.**

Excerpt
Is my left hand good enough? I should've trained more with it. Maybe I can
get it to my right hand quick enough. Fuck. How quick is he? Fuck! Did he see
me moving!?
“You back stabbing thief,” she hissed. She slid her left hand even
closer to the side of the trunk.
“Keep 'em coming, sweetheart, I've got fifteen bullets here that
are just itching to have a purpose in life. Maybe I'll start by putting one in
your right foot, then move up to your left knee. Maybe when I get to your -”
Now!
In almost one fluid motion, she reached her hand underneath a flap
of material that was hiding a pistol, while at the same time twisting her body
and driving her elbow straight up. She caught him in the side of the face with
a sharp crack. His hand moved off of her head and she rolled around, whipping
her gun into her right hand as she snapped upright. He came around at the same
time, shoving his arm straight out and pointing his gun into her face. Her own
firearm was pointed right at his throat.
Shit, now what.
They glared at each other for a moment.
“You have two seconds to walk away from this situation,” she
breathed, stepping back from the bumper, not lowering her gun. Marc kept his
barrel trained on her forehead as he matched her step for step.
“Not gonna happen, princess. Maybe you should walk away,
you're in over your head,” he cautioned her, his tone snide. She smirked at him
and kept moving, trying to put some distance between them and the car.
“Really? This 'princess' just outsmarted you, twice,
in less than five minutes. I think you're in over your head, so back
the fuck off,” she growled through clenched teeth.
“Kitty has claws, I like it. But can she pull the trigger?” his
tone was questioning as he cocked his head to the side.
That enraged her almost more than anything. More than his deceit.
More than his treachery. More than his violence. The disrespect. He'd always
treated her as an equal before – now he looked at her and spoke to her like she
was a cockroach.
“Try me,” Lily snapped back.
He stared at her for a second longer, then did just that – he let
his gun lower and he strode forward, pushing past her as he made his way back
towards the vehicle. She was stunned.
“I'm taking this car!” he called out. She whirled around, keeping
her gun raised.
“No, you're not! Stop right there!” she demanded. He held up his
middle finger.
“Go ahead and sto-”
Lily fired a shot, right over his head. He froze in place
mid-stride, then turned his head to the side so he could see her.
“I'm warning you,” she cautioned him. He chuckled, but still
didn't move.
“You don't have the balls to shoot me.”
She lowered her gun a couple inches and fired again, directly
between his legs. The bullet pinged into the sand at the edge of the road,
right in front of him. When she sighted back on his head, he looked decidedly
less confident.
“In two minutes, you won't have balls, either.”
Lily didn't want to shoot him, she really didn't. She'd never
killed anyone before, and didn't want to start with Marc. She was saving that
damnable act for someone very specific. She didn't want to condemn her soul to
hell for some piece of shit traitor. Some liar. Some con man.
“Look,” his voice was low, his teeth clenched. “I need what's in
that trunk. Whatever deal you have with Ivanov, I can make you a better one.”
“And if I let you take that car, I'm dead. Not winning me
over,” she replied.
“No, you can just disappear. Drive off into the sunset, find the
nearest plane to take you back to L.A., or wherever you're from. Somewhere
safe,” he suggested.
“Not from L.A., and you have one more minute before I blow your
nuts off.”
“How did a sweet thing like you get caught up with Ivanov?”
“'Sweet thing' just threatened to shoot you in the
testicles. Thirty seconds.”
“Okay! Okay, just take it easy. Maybe we can work out a deal. I'll
split them with you, half and half. Just take them out and we'll divide them
up.”
“Do you really think I'm stupid enough to fall for that?”
“Was worth a shot."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six ...,"
Lily began counting down.
Character Inspirations

Fury Road" and Lily is Jessica Chastain. Kingsley Law's look is
entirely based on Jude Law.

About the Author
Crazy woman living in an
undisclosed location in Alaska (where the need for a creative mind is a
necessity!), I have been writing since ..., forever? Yeah, that sounds about
right. I have been told that I remind people of Lucille Ball - I also see
shades of Jennifer Saunders, and Denis Leary. So basically, I laugh a lot, I'm
clumsy a lot, and I say the F-word A LOT.
I
like dogs more than I like most people, and I don't trust anyone who doesn't
drink. No, I do not live in an igloo, and no, the sun does not set for six
months out of the year, there's your Alaska lesson for the day. I have mermaid
hair - both a curse and a blessing - and most of the time I talk so fast, even
I can't understand me.
Yeah.
I think that about sums me up.
