Review: Tainted Love by Tabatha Drake

Synopsis:
“Remember,” he whispers in my ear. “You chose this.”

I did what any good daughter would do when a hitman came knocking on her father’s door.
I offered my body in-exchange for his life.

I’d do whatever he wanted for one night.
I’d bend. I’d bruise. I’d bleed.
I’d do anything to pay off my family’s debt.

I was never supposed to ache for his rough touch.
To lose myself in his midnight blue eyes.
To fall for him.
It was only one night, or so I thought.

When he returned the next night, he wasn’t there to claim my father’s life anymore.

He came to claim mine.

My Review:
Title: Tainted Love
Author: Tabatha Drake
Format: ebook
Genre: Romantic Suspense-assassin, mafia, sports (dance)

POV: Lucy and Dante
Steam Level: toasty
5/5

I love this series! Tabatha Drake uses steam, humor and suspense to draw you in and keep you reading. I started Tainted Love and couldn’t put it down. The chemistry and fire flames hot between Lucy and Dante. Read Killer Love and Secret Love to follow the overarching Snake Eyes storyline and the history between characters. I read this series when published before as the Snake Eyes series by Tabatha Drake’s alter ego Tabatha Kiss. This edited and expanded Killer Love series is proving to be even better than before-and it was one of my favorites and pretty fantastic before. If you’re looking for a series than blurs the lines between good and evil, with sexy alpha heroes who won’t hesitate to kill for the people they love then grab this series and enjoy the wild ride.

I received an advanced copy of this book for free This is my honest and voluntary review
