Black Sheep by Brynne Weaver, Alexa Harlowe
5.0
I don't even know where to start with this one. Everything about it was fantastic. Bria is calculating, cold, and clever - Eli is dark, dominating, and devious. They're a match made in perfect darkness.
Bria is hunting her past before it can consume her, and she's had her mentor, Samuel, since he found her in the desert. Eli has been looking for the head of a cult that's even abusing women for decades. Bria soon finds that their goals are a bit more similar than she thought. Except for she's still killing targets and Eli is gathering information.
The darkness that Bria And Eli recognize in one another is primal and completely off the charts hot. Once they cross the line, it is the sexiest freaking story line I think I've ever read, and I had to question myself a little bit in what I liked there for a minute haha. The spice scenes were electric, and so much deeper than just surface level spice.
That's what I loved about this book, it went seamlessly from a serial killer to a romance, to an investigation, interweaving back through each to make this beautiful web of a story, and the characters really grow and are able to be seen by each other and by us as the reader.
