Excerpt:
“I don’t know
why I’m crying.” Jazz shook her head,
her sobs leaving her throat on shuddery gasps. “I can handle fuckers like them.
I have before, so many times. But they caught me off-guard, and they grabbed me
from behind. That always reminds me of…God, it reminds me.” She stopped there,
shuddering.
Of what? Nick almost asked, then decided it
wasn’t his business. She wasn’t. Even
if the idea of anyone touching her like that—sneaking up on her from
behind—scorched through his show nerves and left his muscles quivering for a
whole new reason. He wanted blood.
Tucking it away,
Nick wrapped his arm around her shoulders and lowered his face to her hair. She
was shivering so violently her jaw kept clicking. “Hey, hey,” he murmured,
stroking all those wild curls he hadn’t been able to get out of his mind. She
sparkled, even in the dark. “It’s okay. You’re okay. They’re gone.”
She only
shivered harder. “They didn’t have any right to t…touch me,” she said through
clenched teeth. “I told them no and they did it anyway. I said no.”
“I know you did.
I heard you, loud and clear.” Nick took a risk and touched her cheek, tilting
her heart-shaped face upward. Her cheeks were sheened with moisture. Even her
lips were trembling. His heart lurched again. “Hey, look at me. Jazz.” It felt
weird to call her that, when he found himself calling her Jasmine more often
than not. How could he resist when she’d tossed such an irresistible opening
line at him? He was an asshole, and
she was as beautiful and delicate as jasmine. Too delicate for a bastard like
him. “Jazz, look here.”
Her eyes stayed
resolutely closed. “It’s…Jasmine to you, asshole.”
Just like that,
he knew she was okay. That she’d faced worse in the past and survived.
Survivors came in all kinds of packages. Sparkles or grime, giggles or growls.
Chuckling, he
stroked his fingertips along her jaw. Lightly, to give her something to focus
on. And maybe to satisfy his curiosity if her skin would feel as satiny as it
looked.
Knowing that it
did didn’t exactly give him comfort.
Her big eyes
flashed open and locked on his, and he let out a long breath at the punch of
awareness. What the hell was it about this girl that worked him over so
thoroughly?
My Review: 5 stars
What a smokin' hot introduction to Oblivion. That's the name of the band. Get used to it, you're going to be hearing it a lot. Four sizzling hot guys and one pint sized powerhouse make this group Rock!! You will be seduced by the raw sexiness of the group. I'm not going to lie, this is one hot read from beginning to end. Throw in loads of sex - it's rock 'n' roll, baby - and fights, and it gets downright primal at times. I loved the writing, it grabbed you and just made you hold on for the ride. And a great ride it is. Ms. Quinn and Ms. Elliott are definitely on my to read list for anything new. If this was just the beginning, I can't wait for the entire ride.
