The night I catch my husband cheating is the night I stop pretending.

I don’t cry. I don’t scream.

I don’t get mad—I get even.

So I bring home another man.

A stranger with wicked eyes and a smile sharp enough to carve me open. I let him have me in the house I share with a liar.

A moment of weakness? Maybe.

A moment of revenge? Definitely.

But he saw me—the darkness, the hunger, the parts my husband hated—and he wanted more.

I ran before I could fall deeper into his abyss.

A year later, I crash one of the city’s most forbidden parties…

And land right back in the middle of his depraved world.

Only this time, he’s promised to another.

And he vows he’s not letting me go.

My Review

Venomous Kiss by T.L. Smith
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I could put this down! Remember to check your triggers.
Lilith and Reon are hot and heavy from the beginning, and I'm not mad about it. And they're obsessed with each other right away. They just have a few obstacles to work through.

Lilith has been going through the motions. One night, she comes home and catches her husband with another woman. She doesn't cry or scream. She gets even.

She brings home another man.

She knew from the moment she saw him that he recognized the darkness in her, and he still wanted her.

What they shared was the very thing she'd longed for, but she ran away before she could fall deeper into his darkness.

A year later, she's made her way into a secret society party where she knows she'll catch a glimpse of him. But he's not letting her go this time.

Thanks so much to the author and Enticing Journey for this ARC to review.
