Perilous
Freedom died the moment he touched me—and I haven’t wanted it back since.
I thought rebellion would taste like laughter in the dark, like the rush of doing something dangerous and surviving it. But one reckless night shattered everything, and now… I belong to a man with orders to end me.
Perilous. The Legion’s most lethal weapon. Cold. Calculated. Merciless.
He was supposed to keep the knife to my throat.
Instead, he took me.
Now I’m caged, hidden away by the very thing I should fear most—a killer who watches me like I’m the only thing keeping him tethered to this world. His obsession is a slow burn, wrapping around my throat with every stolen glance, every twisted touch.
But I’m not just his captive. I’m the daughter of a powerful man whose secrets could destroy everything—and there’s a secret society who will do anything to keep those secrets buried.
As desire blurs into control and truth rots into betrayal, I have to ask myself what’s more the killer who won't let me go… or the way I’m starting to crave him.
Perilous is my story—dark, twisted, and unforgettable.
A tale of obsession, ruin, and the kind of love that doesn’t come with a happy ending… just a price.

wowzas lol
Omg perilous n Annika’s story was so damn good. If you read Tyrant’s story , then you know Peri. He’s ruthless , Dark , twisted , murderous and all around sexy as sin. Annika an innocent wants to leave Sinners Academy and travel the world. Well fate had other plans for her. She stumbles upon something she shouldn’t have witnessed and oh boy what happens next is of epic proportions lol. This book was full of secrets , lies , deception and oh so sexy. AJ Nox did a phenomenal job on this story. I can’t to see what he comes up with next.

Rich girl meets killer.
Get ready for Perilous and Annika's dark, twisted tale of sanctioned deaths, vicious actions, deadly threats, aggressive sex, abduction, blood, cruel games, brutality, buried secrets, intense rituals, redemption, deception, betrayal, vengeance and a mystery to solve. This is a riveting story that pulls you into a powerful clandestine organization, the Legion. It's a hard-edged, memorable love story.

Dnf
Atrocious, just atrocious
Btw TW's list isn't complete there is a LOT not listed including Voyeurism & exhibitionism & face slapping (mmc to the FMC) & tons of non con.
I believe that having the father present in the same room during a ceremony where his daughter has her a$$ fingered & then has a butt plug inserted while he's right there needs to be in the tw list. Js
Also
Every
Single
MMC
Is
A
Sexist
Violent
Pig
First 2 chapters 3 different women are vomiting, infact near ever female vomits thru out book due to extreme rough BJ's. What is it with this author & vomit?
The FMC had the worst BFF
The secret society makes ZERO sense, it's led by Luc who is supposed to be really evil but the 4 brothers or friends Tyrant, Demi, Peri follow his orders? Why?
Why is EVERY man including the MMC's besties advocating to brutally murder an innocent woman ?
Over & over again
This author is huge on a$$ backdoor play : projects or claims (a male claiming a female ) are done in a room full of masked robed men.
Why?
Why is it always backdoor with the claiming?
Spit does not make for an acceptable lubrication!
Why did Peri get to change up his claiming by just using a finger & butt plug?
Why was the FMC's father right there to witness it
Why are all the men extremely violent towards all females?
Why do women need to ask for permission to tough a MMC but
The MMC don't need to ask ?
Wtf knows?
NOTHING is explained at all
One of the worst FMC's to read ever, totally ok with just everything the MMC throws her way & then some & her vag is Niagra falls.
Adding author to my DNR list.

And off we go in the second instalment of the Sinners Academy with AJ Nox.
Right off the bat it starts of dark and ruthless. Perilous has a name to live up to and OMG he does that and some! Annika happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time...when she first encounters Perilous, who just happens to be finishing up with a target for the Legion, Perilous who also is known for his brutality, with no questions asked, he completes his job, until he doesn't!
"Perilous is my story—dark, twisted, and unforgettable. A tale of obsession, ruin, and the kind of love that doesn’t come with a happy ending… just a price."
Be prepared for a novel that exposes you to some dark traits, and even darker events, read the triggers, and be aware that "there is always consent" in all things Perilous.
This book sucks you in and you just need to read another page until you finish. It is very difficult to put down as you are left in suspense at the end of each chapter, not knowing what is coming next!
Take a ride on the dark and wild side with Perilous and Annika and maybe enjoy yourself along the way!
A resounding 5 very dark stars from me!! Well done AJ Nox, well done!!

Sinners Academy
This book takes us back to Sinners Academy. This one features Perilous and Annika. It’s a dark romance, so if you aren’t into the dark romance then this book isn’t for you. But give it a try. I’m hoping there will be more books to come from this author. Seriously a great read

Dark
Wow! Talk about a dark romance. Peri and Annikia's story was crazy. She ended up hooking up with a complete pyscho who loves her. He would do anything for her and help her seek her revenge. I can't wait for the rest of the guys' books.

I loved Peri and Annika’s story! Hot, dirty, steamy, and explosive! AJ Nox has done it again! I loved the plot! It was well-written and amazingly developed! I fell in love with Peri in Tyrant’s book. He and Annika are dynamite together! Their chemistry is off the charts! AJ is an amazing author and I can’t wait to see what he has for us next! Perilous was definitely worth the wait! I am so glad I found my way to him!!! 🥵🤯🫠
