To get rid of her stepfather and have access to her trust fund, Millicent “Millie” Piper makes Benedikt “Ben” Jónsson an offer he can’t refuse: a short-term marriage of convenience. Ben also wants to get rid of Millie’s stepfather to have full control of the PR company Millie’s mother Jacqui founded (Jacqui was Ben’s mentor and business partner) in order to take the company to the next level, so he agrees.

For me to have my love, you can never have yours. First of all, this is the hardest review I’ve ever made. Because this is the most difficult book for me to read.

In Lassiter, thanks to the Book of Spells Rahvyn possess, she eventually finds him. Lassiter knows he needs to be away from Rahvyn due to the demon’s spell, but he can’t help being near her. … Continue reading #REVIEW | “Lassiter” by J.R. Ward (Black Dagger Brotherhood #21) #BDB
