After surviving a brutal relationship, writer Eden Grant is determined to rebuild her life, keeping her focus on finishing her manuscript. But a chance encounter at a gritty construction site in Brooklyn changes everything. Zane Campanelli is a quiet, brooding man with kind eyes that see right through her walls, stripping her bare. He shouldn’t make her feel safe. He shouldn’t make her want more. But he does, especially when her new beginnings start to shatter. Someone is stalking her. The messages begin. Her name whispered in the dark. Her world is broken into. Her life is painted in blood. As the danger escalates, Eden turns to the one man she barely knows—but can’t seem to stay away from. Zane protects her like it's his instinct. Touches her like it’s a promise. But he’s hiding something. Something that ties him to the shadows creeping into her life. She’s falling for him fast. And she may not survive the landing.
Arc review FMC Eden is a dark romance author who is struggling to right her new novel, with her wild past and new future this will keep you on your toes! I’ve never read Alyssa’s books before but this pulled me right in! I loved the mystery of it and it had me guessing the ending and being wrong multiple times. The plot twist is shocking and had me literally jaw dropping.
Couldn’t put this down! It’s one of those books that surprises you and makes you wonder who’s who but definitely worth the read! I can’t wait to get a physical copies to get for a few of my friends who are readers! 100000000/10 reccomend
Unsullied Beauty was unhinged, twisted and dangerous! With twists after twists, I couldn’t put it down and needed to know what would happen next.
Eden and Zane were like magnets, unable to tear away from each other, even surrounded by danger and with their skeletons ready to play. There was no stopping their electric connection at any cost, no matter how twisted things became.
This one kept me on the edge of my seat, was fast paced and had elements I didn’t see coming at all. I won’t say more as I don’t want to spoil anything but if you enjoy stalker romance, please check this one out!
As always, please check the trigger warnings before diving him.
I would like to thank Alyssa Milani for the opportunity to read and review Unsullied Beauty.
Did the brothers go from being 4 years apart to 2? That confused me, but it could also be my dyslexia having the better of me. Was an easy read. Good dark and twisted romance
Almost DNFd multiple times because there was a lot of very cringey dialogue and scenes. I hung around because I wanted to know who the stalker was, and the ending did have some good twists. Overall, the spicy scenes were excessive and I think the story just lacked depth. I wish it focused more on the stalker plot and less on the spicy scenes and making the FMC seem like the only thing going on in her life was who she was going to sleep with. I also think there could’ve been more character and plot development outside of the spicy scenes.
Recommend for readers who want a wild ride, trying to figure out who is who and what the heck is going on. Spicy scenes are very spicy. I especially appreciated the trigger warnings at the front. Do not read if any of these would trigger you. I was given this as an ARC read and this review is given freely. Not an ad, not sponsored — just me loving good books and good people.
Every time I thought I knew who the stalker was, the information and clues sent me in a different direction. I loved Eden’s story, and it kept me wanting more each time.
I was a little underwhelmed by the plot twist at the end because it felt disjointed from the rest of the book, but loved the book otherwise.
Pretty twisted and messed up. It actually made my stomach hurt. I just keep shaking my head. This one ended with quite the cliffhanger which I’m not a huge fan of. Check the trigger warnings before you start.
