Soul Of A Villain
April Moran
Mafia Romance
A SAVAGE WORLD NOVEL
Oliver Benedict Winter
My life revolves around death and darkness.
I’ve accepted that I’ll die alone one day and probably in great pain from an enemy ambush. But when I see her on the auction block, nothing else matters. I’m insanely consumed with her. She’s in danger, but how can I save her when I’ve sworn to be the instrument of her death?
I hunted her. I caught her. I’m keeping her.
I’m the villain, and this is my fairy tale.
Londyn Juliet Skye
Entering that auction might be the biggest mistake of my life.
Because things don’t go as planned. I become the prize in a hunt catering to rich, dangerous men. The man who catches me is dark and brutal, but his cruelty is tempered by possessiveness. His darkness tamed by benevolence. He makes me bleed and when he kisses the pain away, I just want more.
I hate him. Fear him. Crave him. He has me in a chokehold but I’m beginning to like being his.
He’s the villain I’m falling in love with.

Uncaged Review: Oliver Benedict Winter is ruthless, cruel and heartless. No one messes with him because the wrath of a Winter is known to get you injured or, worse, killed. When Oliver goes to Diamond Lake Ranch for their auction, he goes for one singular purpose-to buy a woman, one who is sweet and untouched, a virgin. Of course, when Oliver gets there he meets Lyndon Juliette Skye, who, it turns out, there is more to her than meets the eye. Oliver finds out that Lyndon is many things. Yes, she has her virtue intact, but she is also a killer. Oliver plans to break Lyndon’s spirit in more ways than one, not just physically, emotionally, but sexually too as well, and teach her to face her carnal side. Pretty soon, Oliver is coming undone by the innocent Lyndon questioning his whole world, but men are also after her. If Oliver doesn’t find a way to protect Lyndon, it could also end up killing them both.
Wow! What a very dark tale that is totally addictive! The contemporary love story definitely isn’t for the faint of heart and if you don’t like bullies, BDSM, enemy to lovers, and twisted fairy tales, stay far away from this one. If you can get past all of that, then by all means indulge. One thing though about Oliver: he was a minor character in the Savage Duet. So maybe the savage duet needs to be a series and make this part of it. Oliver isn’t the handsome prince who you could easily fall in love with. He’s savage, brutal and torments Lyndon. That you can’t decide whether to like him or hope something bad happens to him. Luckily, love does change him, so he becomes tolerable and, even can I say it, somewhat likable, but he claims that he isn’t a savior and, yes, he is not that at all! Yet there is something totally redeemable about him. While Lyndon is the sunshine, rainbows and truly a bright light. Despite everything she is put through and her circumstances, she is easy to love. Do I long for more? Well, Ms. April Moran has written an intriguing novel and, yes, I do want more of her corrupt love stories and look forward to the next! Reviewed by Roslynn Ernst
