All I want to do is look after my dad, so when I land the job of a lifetime that will take care of our expenses, I grab at the chance with both hands. Little do I know, the impossible will be expected of me.
Slowly my smile fades, and my laughter dies until all that’s left is the broken puppet my personal hell created.
Liam Byrne, the head of the Irish mafia, returns from a business trip, and I expect my hellish nightmare to increase ten-fold.
Brutal, merciless, and dangerous, Liam is feared by all – even the monster intent on killing my soul.
Turns out I was wrong.
The instant Liam notices what’s happening, he takes me under his wing, and even though he’s all sharp edges and threatening growls, I feel safe with him.
Little by little, my sunshine creeps through the cracks, and my laughter returns.
But can one monster really defeat another, or am I just a girl dreaming about the impossible?
Who would have thought that a sinner could be an angel, that a "sinner" could be the one to have a heart of gold? Not I... at least, not until I read this one. I devoured this story in one sitting, neglecting everything else because I needed to know how Liam would save Kiara. I just had to know how he would deal with his brother and the demons surrounding their life. And I was not disappointed. The sinner turned into a savior, but I can't tell you how. I highly suggest you one-click this one to find out, because there was just so much packed into this story - family drama, heartbreak, romance, and so many other emotive adjectives that I just can't think of, only feel.
Kiara Murphy has a new job, one that will help her move somewhere nicer and to help pay her dads medical bills. But her dad has been keeping a secret all her life and doesn’t want her to work at Byrne Enterprises. She doesn’t understand and continues to work there.

But when the owners step brother, Finn, starts asking Kiara to do extra things and stay late, things start to get a little skeevy. Finn is threatening Kiara’s family, ruining her innocence. As things go from bad to worse, the owner, Liam, notices that things aren’t as they seem. Helping Kiara out, Liam starts to grow feelings for her. But Liam is also keeping a secret, a secret similar to Kiara’s fathers. So what happens when she finds out? You’ll have to one click to find out.

If you are looking for a quickly progressing story then this one is for you. The story line often felt rushed and I noticed a few times that the timeline didn’t quite match but overall I enjoyed this story. Sometimes you just need a quick, steamy read.
