Deadly Desires | Part One

by B. Livingstone, Serafina Jax

All Hallows Eve when the veil's at its thinnest;
In shadows our nightmares come out to play.

A shadow of pitch does creep and slink;
On a vision of beauty he doth prey.

Her nights are disturbed, her peace he has taken,
Her safety is ruined, her mind he has shaken.

But a knight in the dark, with armor dented and dull
Will be her sweet savior, her heart he shall lull.

But secrets and lust, a barrier they make
Will she survive? Or will she break?

Highly recommend

Serafina Jax and B.Livingstone have done a fantastic job creating Lilah, Jasper and Tuckers story. I was hooked from the first page, and love the writing style. The perfect amount of steamyness and plot. The cliffy leaves you eagerly wanting more.

Some men really Do know how to talk sooooo lusciously:
“Should we take this somewhere a little more… private?” // “I really do not want to share your pleasure with all these people, not even a single moan. None of them deserves to hear the delicious noises I’ll demand from your body, if you’ll allow me the pleasure of a night.”
🔥🔥💋🔥🔥

This one’s more of a stalker-suspense-spooky type of story… the actual naughty, delicious, sex is at the end… and kinda disappointed with not revealing the stalker…
is it because another book?… “Want more of Lilah and Jasper? Good news! Their story will continue.”

What I read was From: “ALL HALLOW’S HEAT - A DARK AND FILTHY CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE ANTHOLOGY”

This book will keep you on the edge of your seat! It’s definitely a page turner! MMF/stalker/suspense. Lilah had a one night stand with someone not knowing exactly who it is. One year later around Halloween she has feelings of someone watching her. When she gets pictures it all becomes real. She brings what she was given to the olive station. This is where she meets Jasper, wait til you see what connection he has to her, and Tucker, his partner. Jasper and Tucker also have a connection to each other. What could that be?

Finding out Lilah is in danger, Jasper just wants to keep her safe. Now it’s a race against time to not only find this stalker, but to keep Lilah safe from any more harm. Will Jasper and Tucker be able to do this? What role will Tucker have in this plan. Wait til you find out what happens in the end! Oh no! Bring on book 2 because this cliff hanger definitely needs to be answered.

Suspenseful, nerve-wracking, and leaves you begging for more!
This story is one I could read over and over again, it's so captivating in so many ways. The stalking aspect is terrifying, especially from Lilah's perspective, where you can really feel her terror and confusion. Her nerves are on edge, putting yours on with hers, and it makes it so difficult to put this down.
Add in the chocolate dipping-worthy officers who help her, and you're definitely not dropping this book! Not only are they eager and prepared to help her in whatever means necessary, but they have some stalking secrets of their own and then some. The story is full of conflicting emotions that keep you on the edge of your seat, and the ending will have you screaming for part 2.
Definitely cannot wait for more from this story.

Well my dang!
Whew! I likes dark and this checks the boxes. I mean the story...
A single beautiful night. A demented paradise. Each time a clue is left shatters her peace, her mind... her soul.
The characters _ her, broken a lil, yet a lil quiet strength. The bad has priors and is good at being scary. The bad maybe just want what he wants. He serves and is the best. The good _ he's like the glue with a hint of bad. Like the saving grace.
Emotions are pinging everywhere oh to the mg. Fear, betrayal, jealousy. Wrap that around a bit of mystery and action then top it with a wee bit of heat. You got yourself a story. That end drop... though. Enjoy

This starts off fast and doesn’t let up, my heart was pounding, first with desire but then with fear for Lilah. Wasn’t sure who the good guy/bad guy was going to be and honestly, whether or not it was wise to trust Jasper. But as the threats built, so did the heat and the jealousy. I mean I’m not actually jealous of Lilah, but omfg the heat between her and Jasper and Tucker was like a wildfire. The finale was heart stopping and I have tears in my eyes reading it. I need to know what happens next!

Amazing!

Wow! Giving this book five stars is just not enough to say how amazing it was. I was from the start and there was no way I could stop reading. Everything just draws you in to the story and captivates your attention. Lilah is being stalked but she two delicious officers trying to protect her but Jasper and Tucker have secrets of their own. Lulah is not sure she can completely trust them, especially Jasper. I loved the chemistry between three of them and how everything plays out leading to one very emotional cliffhanger. I need part two ASAP!

4.5⭐️

Wow! This book had me on edge the entire time. I absolutely loved it. The suspense and the action was phenomenal. It was definitely an emotional roller coaster. Jasper and Tucker are detectives with a relationship. Then Jasper meets Lilah at a masquerade. Then she gets a stalker and meets the two again. But so much stuff happens and she doesn’t know what to think. This ended on a big cliffy! I need part 2 now! Highly recommend!

This book was amazing. Lilah's story is just getting started. This book has you on the edge of your seat as each scene grabs your attention and all that is left for you to do is hold on and enjoy the ride. The cliffhanger has me excited for part 2.

[Kayleigh henderson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love B Livingstone writing style and I think this may be my favourite book so far. This book starts off full of action and doesn’t give in all the way through. This book will keep you guessing on who is on what side, good or evil. Loved the chemistry between the characters and can’t wait for more.
