4 Smooches!
Synopsis
Sexy, tattooed and inevitably dangerous. Memphis is all that and more…
I live for the pain; it’s what drives me to keep moving. But there comes a time when one has to push the demons aside in order to survive.
I thought I buried them deep. I thought I was ready to finally live. Until… my brother, Alex; he throws me into the fire—right into the place I could never control myself, the one place I never want to be again.
When I put my hands on people, they get hurt. Things happen that bring me back to that night. The one that will forever torment me.
I’m doing fine, keeping to myself in order to ensure no one gets hurt by me. Then along comes Lyric, and all I want to do is touch her, to put my hands in places that I know will only lead to her being crushed by me.
She’s the rush that I crave. The darkest of poison running through my veins, killing me bit by bit; like a drug I can’t get enough of even though I’m almost down to my last breath.
And being around her only hurts more, but what she doesn’t understand is that I welcome the pain; I get off on it, which in the end leaves me with the hardest decision of my life—one that might get us all killed…
Review
I do enjoy me a Victoria Ashley book. Her boys are usually tattooed up nasty boys with good hearts. I knew when I saw this smoking hot cover that I HAD to read Get off on the Pain! It was a roller coaster ride for sure.
At the very beginning of this book Memphis is just getting our of prison where he has been for 6 years. Memphis isn’t really a nice guy. He is bad ass and alpha and keeps to himself. He wants to escape his dark past and move forward with his life. Lyric cannot seem to stay away from the guy who surprisingly showed up at the house across the street that has stayed vacant for years. She finds him attractive and wants to know more about him but Memphis knows he is no good for Lyric. He can’t escape his past no matter how he tries and he refuses to take Lyric down with him.
This book moved a little slow in the beginning for me. I held on and at about 35% it picked up a great deal and I did enjoy it. I really really loved the photography sessions! Smoking hot!
