“This book belongs to romance. The darker and hotter, the better. Without romance, without those butterfly flutters, heart-tripping whispers, skin-flaying touches, life would be boring.” (Pepper Winters)

My review for books 2 through 4 are minimal as far as the story line to avoid spoilers. But everything you need is in the synopsis. The books in this series are NOT standalone books. Each has a cliffhanger, and the series must be read in order.

“I’ve been sullied by Sully… in every possible way. Mentally, physically, emotionally.”

Book 3 is more graphic and triggering than book 1. In book 2, you learned more of Sullivan’s past and why he’s become the way he is. Book 3 delves even more into that. Sully believes that everything he loves dies. He believes he is cursed, that he doesn’t deserve Eleanor, and that he would destroy her. Sully is the perfect anti-hero. Eleanor/Jinx is an amazing character. She’s courageous, determined, and exceptionally loving and nurturing. The electricity between them continues to grow. The romance is even hotter than the first 2 books. My jaw dropped, quickly followed by my inhibitions and panties. I was lulled into a false sense of security… until the cliffhanger ending. Gahh!!

This story is spellbinding and full of so much pain and passion. Every sentence and character has a purpose to the story. Pepper Winters is a truly talented storyteller! She is detailed and describes everything with such perfection, it makes it easy to picture the world she has created. I felt dizzy as she took me on new heights of ecstasy, passion, and intrigue… until I finally just gave in to the rapturous raw savagery of this story.

Readers, get ready for a ride that is dark, intense, raw, twisted, exhilarating, exciting, kinky, sexy, dirty, addicting, angsty, explosive, full of internal turmoil, thrilling, and scary in the most scintillating way. A ride that pushes your limits and makes you crave everything that Goddess Isles has to offer.

The narration is done in true Duet style. The flow was nothing short of amazing. Sarah Puckett embodies Eleanor and her tenacity, stubbornness, and spunky attitude. Sully is one of the darkest and most alpha characters I have met. Scott Rider couldn’t be more perfect in portraying him. Scott perfectly delivers Sully’s dark, twisted, and complex character. Sarah and Scott ARE Jinx and Sully. Sarah expertly delivers Eleanor’s anger, lust, desire, and emotional turmoil. Scott expertly delivers Sully’s raw emotions that are full of lust, anger, desire, jealousy, internal turmoil, and hardcore alpha male persona. Their duet narration plays out the story in a very realistic way and makes you love the characters even more. When I’m done with this series, I will definitely be searching for more books by these 2 narrators!
