Deadly Intentions by Anise Storm – Review by Rebeca Elliott Figueiras

Deadly Intentions by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this! It wasn’t entirely what I was expecting, it was a lot darker, but I enjoyed that it was different and not the same typical story I was used to reading.
The chemistry between the two main characters, Viviana and Nazario, is charged and well written, you can feel it come off the pages. They are both such strong characters, written so well and even though there were frustrating moments where you want to knock some sense into them and scream at them to just communicate, these ‘flaws’ in the characters work for their personalities and the story.
There are elements to the romance (and other plot points) which can be very dark and I would not recommend this as a read for everyone, but if you enjoy dark, suspenseful, steamy novels, then this book is for you. Please make sure you read the trigger warnings before reading and seriously consider whether this book is right for you.
The book is very well written and flows nicely. My only criticism would be that on occasion things could feel unnecessarily repetitive, relaying information already obtained etc. but this was such a minor issue, it didn’t detract from the story for me.
The author has a great way of writing that pulls you in so not only do you see yourself in the settings, but you also find yourself feeling the emotions of the characters which was both thrilling, and heart-breaking.
This was my first book by this author, but it most certainly won’t be my last!

I recommend this book, but as previously stated read the trigger warnings first! This book is not for everyone.
