The crackle of fire igniting between us. He was dark, dangerous, and secretive. He came into my life like a storm, ripping apart everything I believed in, everything I thought I knew. With his mischievous smirk, stunning looks, and alluring behavior I should’ve ran as far away from him as I could. But I was stupid. I trapped myself in his web. I thought I was safe with him. Safe in his arms, safe from a past that refused to let go. Turns out Christian Russo was the past I was running from, and my first mistake was ever thinking I could escape him.   *This is a dark stalker-mafia romance.

My Review
5 Stars
Cruel Beast by J.L. Beck and S. Rena is book Three in the Dark Lies Series.  This starts the story of Enzo and Alicia "Elena".  Alicia is in need of some serious money and ends up pretending to be someone she isn't to help get that money.  But this leads her to Enzo who is out to get revenge and doesn't know that she isn't who he thinks she is.  This book does ends setting us up for the next installment in their story.
