RIP

BLURB:
Pretty things aren't meant to be broken.
But I broke her, and now we both have to
pay the price.
I'm her nightmare.
I'm her savior.
And now that I have her signature on an
ironclad contract, I own her body and soul.
She doesn't remember me.
She will.
It's inevitable.
Because as much as I know I need to stay
away, for fear of unlocking the memories I helped her father bury--I can't.
She was the apple in the Garden, dangled in
front of me, her core so tempting and sweet. A voice whispered. Just. One.
Bite.
I bit.
I tasted.
I fell.
Welcome to the world of the Russian mafia,
where death, is your only future.

Review By Angela
5 Amazing Stars
Ok so this review is going to be short because I just have no words on how to describe how amazing this book was. So all I can say is that you need to read it, you need to read any of Rachel's books actually and this was epic.
Thanks again Rachel for being awesome!
Was given an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

EXCERPT
“You,” I said
simply. “It all leads to you. Everything. And I think, for now…” I leaned up,
brushing my lips across his. “That’s all that matters.”
“And if I’m the key
to both your survival and your destruction, what then?”
“You mean what if
your water is poison?” I asked.
He didn’t answer.
“Then I want to
drink.”
There were two
seconds.
Two brief moments
in time.
When I felt my
heart race and wondered if it matched his as Nikolai took a steadying breath…
then swallowed hard.
One beat against my
chest, and his lips were touching mine.
Two beats as my
heart picked up speed, and I could feel the heat of his mouth as he slid his
tongue across my lower lip.
I moaned in
response, reaching around his neck, grasping fistfuls of his hair and tugging
as his body moved against mine. Without breaking the kiss, Nikolai found the
hem of my cotton T-shirt, lifted it and pulled it over my head, our mouths
parting for seconds before, with a sizzle of heat, they met again, and again.
Each time our lips grazed it felt new, and yet familiar, like we’d shared
hundreds of kisses, thousands of embraces.
He leaned back and
helped me to a sitting position, his muscles flexing from holding his own
weight. Moonlight shone across the planes of his firm chest. Something about
Nikolai’s masculine beauty was lethal, so dangerous that my heart raced even
harder. He frowned, pressing his palm to my chest as if trying to calm me down.
I wasn’t safe.
Not in his
arms.
