Synopsis

He put one hand on the door beside her head before leaning forward. What was he doing? Trying to intimidate her again?



“Truth is…” He began to speak in a low voice and she strained her ears but all she could hear was her heartbeat. “I hate when you touch me because I like it so much.”



Her eyes widened in surprise and he leaned even closer before continuing to speak.



“I also hate the way you smell…” she could hear him inhale her scent “You smell delicious. And I hate your hair because it’s tempting. I want to run my fingers through it, pull it gently while I taste your lips and bite your neck.”



Angelica suddenly felt like there was no air left in the room.



“Your touch makes me unable to resist doing those things and all the other things I want to do to you.”



“Oth...other things.” She breathed not realizing she was thinking loudly.



One side of his lips curved into a smile.



“Imagine all the things a man would want to do to you. I want to do those things and much more.” He leaned closer bringing his lips next to her ear. “Because I am no man. I am a beast. A hungry one. So unless you want me to bite you, refrain from touching me.”



****************



A woman alone in a man’s world.



In a time and place where it’s difficult for a woman to live alone, protect and provide for herself, Angelica must find a provider and a protector after her father is accused of being a traitor and executed by the king. Now known as a traitor's daughter, she must survive in a cruel world ruled by men, and in order to do so she ends up seeking protection in a man feared by everyone. A man with many scars.

A man punished for his pride.



Rayven is a man with many scars. They cover his face and punish his soul. He can never show himself without people recoiling at the sight of him. Except for one woman who willingly comes knocking on his door. Is she an additional punishment sent to him, or will she be his salvation?

Jasmine has such a way with words and a true gift when it comes to writting. This book is well paced, well thought out and vivid in description. Every conversation between the characters is purposeful and important to the story line. Nothing is ever wasted. The characters are so relatable and you find yourself caring for them as if they were real people. Jasmine also has an amazing ability to describe love and intimacy between her main characters without being trashy or unnecessarily graphic. It’s refreshing. This book is even better than her last - and thats saying something - because that book was awesome too!

Jasmine is the writer that brought me to webnovel ❤️ ‘married to the devils son’ got me hooked and ive never looked back. This new novel is another masterpiece. The chemistry between characters, and her writing style suck you in and make you feel like you’re a part of the story. Im always on the edge of my seat wondering what will happen next. Just give it a few chapters and you’ll be a fan too!
