~Synopsis~

The twist of a knife shredded Niko Kincaid’s world all around him, leaving him with two choices—accept his fate and die, or fight to live. He chose to fight, but the aftermath became a daily reminder, carved into his once flawless flesh. Despite years of self-imposed solitude, Niko hungers for companionship and suffers from an aching loneliness that the darkness cannot satisfy. He temporarily soothes his pain with women, hired women, whose only purpose is to service him. Easy. He didn’t expect a complication like Cambree Evans, but desperation corrupts even the most innocent. When emotions blend with lust, will Cambree's softness and ability to look past Niko's flaws be the one thing that releases him from his own personal hell? Will the monster in the dark prove that his savaged heart is worth saving?

New book to add to your fav must read list!!!

To say I loved this book would be an understatement! This was my first Nacole Stayton read and I am now forever hooked!! I started this late at night and had to hold my eyes open fighting the tiredness because putting it down was NOT an option! You get sucked in from the first page and can't breathe until the last!! Nacole's writing was impeccable and the flow pure perfection. Not once did I find myself bored or the story lacking.

This was in sorts the re-telling of Beauty And The Beast. But in a very hot and modern way! Just like Belle, Cambree agrees to stay withe The Beast (Niko) in exchange for saving a family member. Unlike The Beast though, Niko's needs are more than just company; he needs require no lights and no clothes.

Niko was beaten and left for dead, but now hide in the shadows of his home. He refuses to leave the darkness of his room and prefers everyone think him dead. BUT Niko has one craving he cannot satisfy on his own, so he sends his personal assistant to find him women. These women get paid in exchange for earth shattering sex and keeping his secret. Of course like anything else, this arrangement comes with certain rules, which include not seeing him and not touching him. When he meets Cambree though, everything changes.

Their relationship is A LOT of push and pull, both fighting something that is inevitable. Both have a tragic past that keeps them from living the life they are meant to live. They both need each other but fight it at every turn. As Cambree starts breaking past Niko's walls, tragedy strikes that shines the light on everything they thought they knew! And for them, when it rains it pours!!!!

Savaged is easily on my list for top reads this year and EVER!!!

Rating: 5 stars

Cheers!

Excerpt:

“I’m not scared of you,” Cambree’s voice is fragile and shaky when she finally speaks. “I’m scared of the dark.”

The admission almost brings me to my knees. I’ve never known someone to be so honest, especially in my home, where I control everything right down to the temperature, the mood, the lighting. She is not frightened because she is about to screw a complete stranger. She is simply scared of the dark like a child. Yet the thought of her being so forthcoming doesn’t irk me, it makes me feel normal, if only for a few seconds.

“I cannot help you there, Miss Evans. You see…I am the darkness. With me you have to accept that and move on. If that isn’t something you can become accustomed to, then I am afraid our business deal has ended before we gave it a chance to really blossom.”

My movement makes a creaking sound as I step forward on the hardwood floor. I can hear her breathing growing more erratic as I near. The smell of jasmine fills my nostrils. The scent is heavenly. “If you want to leave, you know where the door is.” I hope she doesn’t want to flee my presence already.

Unlike my new guest, my eyes are used to the dark.Where she fights to see me, I can see her silhouette perfectly and I use it to my advantage to drink her up.Cambree stays mute, her body swaying back and forth, her feet firmly glued to the floor.

“I don’t understand why you have the lights off. That wasn’t explained to me,” Cambree probes.

“I assume that you read our agreement very carefully?” I ask, taking another step in her direction, wondering why she is wondering such imprudent things.

“Yes. Yes, I did. But never once did it mention anything about the lights.”

My voice now exasperated drifts like fog in the air. “I hired you under the pretense that you while you’re here, with me, under my roof, you play by my rules. Rule number one, I like the lights off. I understand now, that you are frightened of the dark, and I do not wish for you to be afraid. Next time, I give you my word to try and be more accommodating to your fears. Now, shall we?”
