Blurb

Their lives were destined to collide.

Juliette Salinger lives her life entirely on her mother’s terms. Everything from what she wears to who she dates is determined by what is deemed appropriate for their social standing.

Look a little closer.

Juliette isn’t cut out for that life. She lives for moments of reckless abandon to escape the crushing pressure of never being good enough.

Leo Ashlar appears to live his life entirely on his own terms. He’s a bartending bachelor and undefeated fight club champion.

Look a little closer.

He’s haunted by a tragic past and hides his demons even from those he loves.

When Juliette’s duplicit worlds collide with the handsome and untouchable Leo, both are impacted in ways they couldn’t foresee. Juliette’s life begins to unravel. Can Leo help her build a new one, or will his past be their ultimate demise?



JOIN THE RELEASE PARTY



This is the first book by KA Sterritt that I have read.  I will definitely be reading the next book in this series.

I was unsure if I liked Jules for most of the book. I liked Jules, but Juliette, not so much.  Yes, they are the same person, but she acts differently.

Jules is an adrenaline junkie and fun and strong.  Where Juliette is weak. She has to please her mom, no matter how unhappy that makes her.  This includes dating Richard.

I understand why she does what she does to please her, but she still needs a backbone when it comes to her.

When she first sees Leo through the cage at an illegal underground fight, things start to change for her.  Once she actually meets him, she gets stronger and Juliette morphs completely into Jules more and more.  She grows a backbone and starts to stand up for herself.

Leo is awesome.  He has some demons that he hasn’t, and won’t talk about.  Both his parents are dead.  They are eating him alive.

“I don’t know what I was waiting for until I found a lost soul who belonged to me.”

They really are both lost souls that were supposed to find each other.

Don’t get me started on Jules’ mother.  She is freakin nuts!!

This does end in a cliff hanger.  I didn’t know this was going to be a series.  I totally wasn’t thinking
that was going to happen! 


I need the next book now

Excerpt

I rarely saw Richard on Friday nights as he socialised with his own colleagues, and I was ashamed about how happy that made me. We only really saw each other on weekends when we were attending a social function together. Any shameful feelings, however, were going to be forgotten when I planned to leave my colleagues at the bar sometime before midnight under the guise of heading home.


Instead, I’d get in a cab with adrenaline surging and go underground for what I hoped would be a blissful few hours. During those hours I wasn’t going to be twenty-five-year-old Juliette Salinger, daughter of social elite Isabel Fontaine and legal royalty John Salinger. I wasn’t going to be anyone’s puppet, hanging from strings I couldn’t seem to untie. I was just going to be Jules, and I thirsted for the blood spilling in front of me. Not like a vampire or anything paranormal. I’d studied plenty of fights on TV, and I simply craved the energy I gleaned from watching the pummelling impacts, the uppercuts, the right hooks and the sublime confrontation of man against man. In my mind, I preempted every move the fighters made and cringed when they deviated. It would invariably end in them knocked out, unconscious or comatose. Illegal fight nights were a whole new level, and I had a feeling I was going to be counting the hours, the minutes and the seconds between each one.
