Cruel secrets is the second book in the cruel command series by kira cole. I was interested in it, because Goodreads recommended it, and I liked this book, but i’m a dark romance reader, and i need more darkness or i’ll meet god, but this book was entertaining, kira’s writing felt like a flow, once I kept reading, i couldn’t stop, the mafia elements, the love, the loss, the pain, everything was written perfectly, i couldn’t drop this book, even though it wasn’t my type anymore. I would definitely check the other books in this series, and more.
Some of my fav highlights of the book :
“Nobody is going to kill you. They have to get through me if they so much as want to lay a finger on you.”
“You know what I’m capable of, Gia, and I will burn the f•••••• earth to the ground if it means I can make sure that bastard never gets to you again.”
“We’re safe.” I kiss her temple. “We just need to get to the car, and then we’re going to get the hell out of here and have you looked over by a doctor.”
“Hell!” Bianca says the word like it’s her new favorite.
I wince as Gia shoots me a dirty look. “Oops?”
“After everything that’s happened today, all you have to say is oops?”
“Hell! Hell. Hell!” Bianca claps her hands in time with the words, getting a laugh out of Gia as she shakes her head and walks with me down the stairs.
“I can’t believe you taught our sweet little baby to swear.”
“At least her first word wasn’t fu—”
- “Are there any other enemies I should know about?”
Chuckling, I kiss her again. “If you think that anyone is going to take you or Bianca away from me again, you should know that they’ll have to rip you from my cold, dead arms.”
“Romantic.” She rolls her eyes but the corner of her mouth twitches.
“Anything for you.”
“As soon as I find the ring I think you’re going to love, it’s going on your finger and never coming off.”
I’m more than happy to snag a cookie off the tray and watch them love on my future wife. She deserves to be adored by everyone in her life and my family are more than happy to do just that.
Baby Bianca was a sweetheart, and both royce and gia have my heart. This one was a sweet read.
However, i’m not gonna give it five stars, but three, since it was a moderate read for me. Okay, one more star for Bianca only, and the smut. Thankyou.
