Blurb
The last place Christopher Jacobs, aka X, thought he’d find
himself was behind bars. Ten years later, the boy he used to be is gone. In his
place is the shell of a man with murder under his belt. Any emotion he once had
was left under the gavel when he was given life in prison. That is until the
new nurse in the infirmary joins the block.
Putting your hands on a prison employee will get you the
hole, but some things are worth their punishment, and something tells him Lyla
will be worth more than he bargained for.
Lyla Evans isn’t sure about her new job at a maximum
security prison, but showing uncertainty and weakness isn’t an option. Taking
care of murders and rapist isn’t ideal, but survival is key. She’s warned ahead
of time about a prisoner named X, but when she’s attacked, it’s the dangerous X
that saves her. Fraternizing with the prisoners is forbidden, but sometimes the
most forbidden things are the sweetest.
Holy shit balls Batman!
What did I just read? And I mean
that in the best way possible. If you
want a feel good love story with rainbows, unicorns, hearts, and a happily ever
after…this isn’t for you. If you want a
love story that’s forbidden, dirty, raw and an unexpected ending…read
this! This is an amazing read. You will think one thing, then book, it’s not
what you thought at all.
I loved X, Christopher, and Lyla.
Who would have thought Lyla working at a maximum security
prison would find the love of her life.
That love is Christopher.
I’m not going to say anything else because I would hate to give anything
away.
There are some brutal scenes. There are also some very hot scenes!
The final lines in the last chapter sum this book up great.
“Monsters are real, too.
They didn’t live in our closets or hide under our beds. They squatted within us – coming out occasionally
to destroy the things we loved – coming out to destroy us.”
This is an awesome read that’s full of monsters.
Sometimes you'll come across a story that will leave you
gasping and wanting more, and that's exactly what Slammer did.
Slammer by Tabatha Vargo isn't your traditional love story,
there is nothing traditional about Lyla and X. Their story is forbidden, dark,
sexy and mysterious. These two characters combined are mind blowing.
I've never read a book quite like Slammer. I don't think
I've ever read a book that revolves around a prison and an inmate, but dang, I
think we will see a lot more coming. I believe Tabitha has opened a new genera,
and let the forbidden prison love, flood in.
Right from the very beginning we're given this gut churning
mystery about X and why he's in prison. It starts off with a bang and ends in a
huge, omg I don't think I can take this, you got to be kidding me, bang!
" She was a drug. She made me high, and I waited every
day for another hit of her."- X
One nurse who's trying to keep her head above water, who
turns to working in a Maximum Penitentiary gets more than she ever bargained
for when the alarm sounds, and X is brought into the infirmary and her life.
Everything she has know will forever be changed.
Holy shit, Tabatha! Bravo lady, bravo! I will forever have a
fantasy of X and a jail cell. Thank you. This world, it's dirty, gritty,
horrible and freaking consuming. It's definitely a 'pick your jaw up off the
floor, and sit back and say WTF' kind of book. There were moments my stomach
got weak, but there was also moments my panties got wet. If you can do both
those in one dang book, you freaking nailed it then.
Get ready to have your world rocked and your jaw to drop.
Dive in and see what all the fuss is about.
