~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?

~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?”
~Review~
Wow, wow, wow and wow. Nacole have
done it yet again with writing a wonderful story. I loved “Savaged” so damn
much, it was one emotional, suspenseful roller coaster ride that I was so happy
that I had a chance to partake. Savaged take us in to a journey with Niko, when
a vicious attack left him with scars both inside and out he became comfort with
the darkness that he has developed inside of him, until Cambree. What was
suppose to a relationship that only consist of sex blossomed into something
more than Niko has bargained for, and boy did I love watching come from a “dark”
place to a place that was filled with happiness, love and a light. Nacole also
gave us a wonderful twist that I wasn’t even expecting, and that little twist
shows that being envious is a sin that will lead one to do the worst. Then we
had the sex scenes, they were done well, hot enough to make your panties melt
and your heart spike, I loved it. I cannot wait to find out what she has in
store for her readers next. Thank you for Niko’s story Nacole, keep them coming
lady.
