POV:Dual
Alex & Evie (Vixen)
Book two in Alex & Vixen's Sinful Trilogy, in the Knight's Ridge Empire series. Not a standalone, must read in order.
Feeling miserable and thinking that it was for the best to walk away from Evie. Thinking she deserves better than him. He went and fell for her the first time he saw her. Now he's a walking dark cloud. His friends and brother have all coupled up and are happy, moving on with their lives. He thinks it's his job within the Family that holds him back from having an honest relationship. Hating that he's keeping alot of secrets from Evie. It's just best to just leave her.
Evie has always dreamed of a new life, far away in the future for herself and her siblings. But that's all it is, wishful thinking, a far away dream. Alex has left, not returning any of her messages, he's just gone and ghosted her. She's fallen for him. But with him driving off leaving her, she's to face a different future, one where she's ripped away from her brother and sister. Her own useless father, with the help of Derek, have sold her to the highest bidder. She hopes that Alex will find her. But knowing that it's probably doubtful she holds on to that thought. Evie's tougher than she looks. Growing up in Lovell you have to be thick skinned.
Finding out that Evie's the latest victim of the human trafficking ring that they, the Riveras, Marianos and others have been trying to bring down, Alex is desperate to find her and rushes to her rescue.
Shocked and surprised, Evie can't believe that he actually came for her. He bought her to save her. He's so possessive of her it's borderline psychotic. But she likes it. What does that say about her? Tucked away in a safe location, she's at ease knowing that her siblings are safe too. Not knowing much about him, apart that he's a mafia soldier, they get to know each other a bit better.
The way she looks at him as if he hangs the moon and stars, Alex is keeping so much from her, he lets her think that he bought her to save her. But he's going to have to tell her everything sooner than later. How will she handle the truth?
Will they get a break with their leads for who's behind the trafficking ring and who really bought Evie or will the source come to them?
Why do these boys go about things backwards, and mess things up?
Just as well they're cute.
The banter, between them all is brilliant and funny. Such a gripping, fast paced read. That cliffhanger!!
Looking forward to the third and final part of this couples trilogy.
