This book was okay. I had a hard time getting into the story, but that was just me. Nothing against the book, it just wasn’t my taste. It had a good plot and the characters were well developed.

Oh, mama if I can say 6 out of 5 but there are only 5 stars. Sera sounds like a woman that both males and females will love to have. Cassius has no idea what he is getting into and Sera has no idea what to do with her dad and Cassius. But this hot relationship is a sticky mess that I have ever read. The author did an amazing job with these two characters and how both of them make the lava in a volcano seem weak compared to these two. But what will Sera do with her dad and what will Cassius do?

“There are some who can live without wild things, and there are those who cannot.” -Aldo Leopold
This book, Devils Breath, really surprised me with how much I really enjoyed it. I think we have all come to expect the same storylines from romance novels no matter what genre they fall into. This was a romantic suspense, femme fatale type romance. Devils Breath was fresh and new for me and I was pulled into the book immediately. Cover to cover Cassius, Sera, and Raine kept me on the edge of my seat. It was a wild thrill ride from start to finish and the ending was great. I really like the main characters from the start. Sera’s journey within herself, from caged, monstrous, ice queen, with ultimate control, made by her father, to the warm, welcoming, emotional woman she really was just looking for someone to show her what love really means was pretty powerful after everything she’d had to endure her entire life. Cassius with his stoicism, and endless patience but ruthlessness when needed made him very endearing to me as a reader. No one in real life is perfect, everyone is fighting some type of battle we know nothing about. The author made the characters so real and human I felt like they could jump off the page. There were even a few times in the book that made me laugh and giggle while reading it. The author’s ability to stitch all of that together was flawless and everything came together very well. 5 thumbs up for Devils Breath. I would definitely recommend giving it a try especially if your tired of that same old romance troupe.

The debut novel for this author is amazing. I am definitely now a fan. Sera is an assassin, amongst other things, and very good at what she does. Her next mark, Cassius, is not like any one she has ever met. These characters come right off the page, and not just the main characters. The supporting characters were just as well developed. I was so lost in the pages that it was easy to forget the world around me. The story was suspenseful and sexy. I cannot wait to see what this author has in store for us in the future.

This was a really enthralling read! I honestly wasn’t expecting to like this one as much as I did but just a few chapters in I was hooked and could hardly put it down! Not only is this book sexy, it is full of shocking twists and turns every few chapters. It was thrilling and kept me on the edge of my seat. This is my first time reading this author before but I plan on coming back. This book was fantastic! I would definitely check for triggers though if violence and blood is one for you though.

Suspenseful, dark romance that had me wanting more. Plenty of betrayal, lust and a bit of cat and mouse banter between Sera and Cassius. Sera is a strong female who took me by total surprise… I love that she is a smart chemist and also a deadly assassin. She is all about pleasing her father and the drug empire they are building but something unexpected happens when she meets Cassius, a handsome, smart businessman funding Sera’s product. Sera’s next target is Cassius, but as Cassius continues to get to know Sera and break down her walls will it be to late as Sera decides between love or family?
Fantastic book and wonderful characters. What a story!

Checked the blurb out on this book, it reeled me in! So glad I gave this a chance, I FREAKING LOVED it, like legit LOVED it! It definitely is different from my normal reads. The author kept it very interesting, so the just one more chapter turned into 3 or 4 more until you realize dang you’ve read it all! LOL The chemistry between Sera & Cassius was fire 🔥 Author brought their story to life, I was invested until the very end! If you LOVE a dark, SPICY, romance then this is most certainly a must read for sure.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first picked up this novel. This was a new to me author and not a genre I read frequently. I was drawn in by the synopsis and I stayed for a fierce female main character. I can’t recall ever reading a book where the female lead was the assassin and the “role reversal” didn’t disappoint.
This book had a little bit of everything, action, suspense, spice but it also had a lot of depth not only within the storyline but the characters as well, especially Sera.
I would genuinely recommend this book. You’re in for a ride from start to finish.

I was completely drawn into this book as soon as I started reading and I couldn’t put it down. Sera is a brilliant chemist, beautiful, and an assassin. Sera’s biggest weakness is her abusive father. Sera will do anything for her father to try to make up for the sacrifices she feels he made for her. Cassius is Sera’s new mark but it’s not as cut and dry as she originally thought. Cassius is smart, attractive, rich, and an all around good guy. There is a lot of chemistry between these two and their banter is so fun to read. There is action, deceit, great characters and so much more in this story. I highly recommend this book.

Interesting twist in the dynamic between Sera and Cassius. Sera is a high-paid, well-trained assassin. She is on the verge of a mega-deal that would set up her and her father for this life and the next. The only problem is that she is falling for her mark, Cassius.
Cassius is a businessman willing to take calculated risks. These risks have made him a very rich man. Cassius knows when his brother introduces him to Sera, there is more to this woman than meets the eye. Cassius is determined to discover her secret. When Cassius stirs feelings and emotions in Sera that she has not felt in what seems like forever, Sera struggles with completing the contract for Cassius. Will she or won’t she?
The author has a brilliantly paced story that will keep you hanging on until the last word!!

Sera is a very interesting lady. Lorenzo her dad was not a good person he was deceiving. Cassius, I like his character. This is a very well-written romance novel I like how well the characters interact with each other. Devil’s Breath which is set to hit the streets and become the next big thing being an Assassin and all has its perks but what happens when you fall for your target.

Devil’s Breath by Lang Johnson
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Devil’s Breath is a great read. It’s a perfect mix of suspenseful and romance. I had a hard time putting the book down.
Sera is her family’s assassin and shes Damn good at her job. Meeting her next target on her club puts her plans in motion. She doesn’t expect to fall in love. The quote I chose for Sera is: “Anyway, we have work to do. Since you want to bring up my degree, why don’t you put your computer science degree to use before we get caught?”
Cassius is in town to help his brother out. Little does he know that he’s fronting them the money for a fake business. He meets Sera and knows something is up. He finds out what it is, but that doesn’t stop him from loving her. The quote I chose for Cassius is: “Lower your guns. You come here every night. I’m assuming it’s not for an evening rendezvous with a hot lover. My brother, Damion, and Lorenzo are smuggling Adrenochrome. There are thousands of bottles hidden behind the walls.”
Highly recommended for Romantic Suspense lovers.

First off, I highly recommend you just jump right into this book. Do not ready any reviews….you don’t want anything given away. This book had me on the edge of my seat ’til the very end….I had no idea which way it would go.
I’m going to try to do this review justice without giving too much away. Sera is a great FMC. She works hard, knows what she wants, and is good at what she does. As a hired assassin, she usually has no problem with the follow-through…until him! Cassius is a wise and kind-hearted man. However, he feels something is amiss with his meeting of Sera…he just needs to figure out what it is. These two have amazing banter, some H-O-T scenes, and the gamut of emotions (lust, love, hate, betrayal….you get the picture). However, at the end of the day, Sera must decide if she will follow orders or her heart? And how will Cassius deal with the fact that someone close to him has betrayed him?
This book was one of the best books I have read this year! It is filled with the kind of back and forth that kept me turning the pages until the very end!! It has been a while since I have been so enthralled with a book that I did not notice the passage of time….I just sat and read from beginning to end!

I’m always keen to try out author’s I’ve never read before and when I read the blurb of this book, I just knew that I had to give it a chance. I’m a total sucker for a good romantic suspense novel and that’s exactly what I got with this book.
I was pulled into this story from the very beginning. The author had me hooked straight away and wasn’t willing to let me go. Thankfully, I was a very willing passenger on this great ride. The story flows along quickly and is full of action, intrigue, danger and suspense. Added to that is an almighty blast of angst as the two main characters, would be assassin Sera and her would be victim Cassius top toe around one another.
Set in the dark underworld of drugs, this is dark and raw in parts but is a fantastic read that I just didn’t want to put down.
It is most definitely with the 5 stars that I’m giving it.

Holy Smokes! What a crazy yet stunning story! I mean I loved it but DANG I really was not sure which way it was going to go until I flipped that last page! This really took me on such a ride! So SO many ups and downs and twists that sometimes I was not sure who to trust/believe or even like. Both main characters and a secondary or two are very interesting in how they conduct themselves. I was drawn into their individual lives, plight and but mostly I wanted everything to turn out where the winners win and the losers lose. But since this takes me right up to the edge before it lets go…I just never know who is going to fall.
I absolutely LOVED this dark and twisty tale! The story..the suspense..the characters..all of it is perfection! I highly recommend this one to anyone who can handle a little darkness in their stories. I look forward to more from this author!

Wow just wow I’m not even sure what to say because this book might have left me speechless. But here’s my thoughts, you you’re looking for a story to keep you on your toes and the edge of your seat but also give you all the emotions you could think of go one click this bad boy. From start to finish I had no idea how things would go and I loved every minute of it. The characters are complex and relatable, they simply pull you into a world you’ll find it hard to leave at the end. It’s well written and paced nicely, the characters will stay with well after you reach the end. Five huge stars and highly recommended!

Devils breath was such a good read! Cassius is AMAZING and he’s seriously the best. Sera has been dealt the life of crime. Her dad sucks and he’s money hungry. Sera has a tough decision to make..will it be her dad or the person she’s falling for? This book has suspense, crime and some spice! We all love spice lol at least I do. I give this book 5 stars because it kept me interested from the first page. And it was one of those books where you don’t realize how many pages you’ve read because it’s THAT good. You don’t have time to check page numbers. HIGHLY recommend this one.

Dark, Spicy, Edge-of-Your-Seat Suspense…this book has it all. I was hooked from the blurb of the book and Lang Johnson just kept pulling me in. This is definitely not a book for the faint-of-heart. There are lies, betrayals, *spicy* times, love, hurt, anger, and so much more. I loved how Johnson developed Sera’s character and made her this total badass who knows want she wants and goes and gets it. She is smart, feisty, sexy, and knows how to use each of those to her advantage. Cassius is my favorite type of character…broken and flawed, but not ready to give up on the world yet. He’s kind and loving and is a genuinely good guy. I love the banter between Sera and Cassius as they are figuring each other out and what they mean to one another. Johnson’s plot development is also *chef’s kiss* amazing. It was a very fast-paced novel, but it never felt rushed. The drama and action sequences were done extremely well, as were the spicy portions of the book. Lang Johnson is definitely an author I will be putting on my To-Read list. I highly recommend this book!

Right from the first chapter, this book was dark and sultry and addictive. This isn’t your typical romance novel – it has drugs, murder, betrayal, secrets, lies, and pain. But it also has longing, attraction, lust, and love. All of the feelings in Devil’s Breath felt organic. It was not over-the-top cheesy, but it still showed an instant connection between Cassius and Sera that only kept building and deepening, even when that made everything more complicated. After all, nothing is easy when you are falling for someone you are meant to kill.

Devils breath is a book about Sera Dwari, brilliant chemist and assassin who has created a new drug called Devil’s Breath using her degree in chemistry. She’s cold and ruthless and will stop at nothing to make her criminal father proud and full-fill his wishes. That is until she meets her unknowing benefactor Cassius. Cassius Batista is a ruggedly Hansom billionaire from a small town in Wyoming, all he wants to do is live his life out in the world doing the things he enjoys, hiking, rock climbing, anything for some adrenaline. Unfortunately Sera has been hired by someone close to Cassius to kill him but as time goes on and she gets to know her next mark more and more, she’s starting to doubt she can kill him, or stop herself from falling in love with him…
Absolutely Terrific book! Brilliant writing! Positively in love with the character building from this author. The cold collected facade presented by Sera to everyone that covers up the sad girl underneath, who just wants to make her father proud and pay him back for the life he gave up for her.
On the flip side there’s Cassius who’s all out there from the get go, a honest up front guy with A plus qualities. But Cassius is not just some pretty, rich man, he’s smart and cautious, and that caution is telling him that there’s more going on then what Sera showing him and everyone else.
Lies, deception, love, family, betrayal, this book has it all to suck you in and keep you waiting and wondering what’s going to happen on the next page. A slow burn that builds up to a crescendo, shattering hearts and family’s.

I was a little unsure what to expect going in to this book – the description didn’t particularly grab me but the reviews were all good. I am so glad I gave it a go. This was a refreshingly unique read. It isn’t often you get a female lead as strong and fiesty as Sera. It was so easy get pulled in by her. It felt like the whole story centred around her.
The story was well written. It was exciting and engaging. I found myself swept up by what was happening and the chemistry between the characters. This is a great book that I thoroughly enjoyed.
