I’d wanted to heal the scarred mafia prince and surrender to the fiery chemistry we shared. Until he crushed my heart, and then I finally understood. He’s loyal to his criminal family, no matter how much I wish he were a good man. I dug too deeply into the Ferraras’ crimes, and now I have their attention. And the Bratva conspiracy Max warned me about? I’m starting to fear that it might be true. On the awful night he betrayed me, I told Max that we were done. But he won’t leave me exposed and vulnerable to his Russian enemies. Or his own brutal family. I can’t escape my dark protector’s strong arms, and I’m no longer certain if I want to…     About the Author: Julia Sykes is a USA Today bestselling author of edgy, emotional romance.

My Review
5 Stars
TORMENT & TEMPTATION by Julia Sykes is book Two in the Rapture & Ruin Series.  This continues the story of Alexandra Fitzgerald 'Allie' and Max Ferrara that started in the previous book 'Rapture & Ruin'.  So, you will need to read the previous book to fully enjoy this book.  Max had sadly used Allie and now as we learned in the previous book has discarded her but he still tries to protect her since forcing her into his world. But he is slowing learning that he has made a grave mistake in throwing away Allie because she means more to him than he thought.  This book does end with another cliffhanger... I can't wait for it.
