I Followed him. Watched him. Stalked him.
As a detective, it was my job. Jake Cryson was the best lead I had to getting information on the trafficking ring I'd been trying to bring down for the past year. He was the key. I could feel it in my bones.
But I got caught...
...And now he has me.
My name is Detective Laila Ashby, and this is only the beginning of my story.
Dethroned is the third book in the interconnected standalone series Darker Places. It is part one of Jake and Laila's story and DOES end on a CLIFFHANGER. The story picks back up in Demolished. Although helpful, It is not essential to have read the prior books in the series.This book is a dark romance, and thus contains dark subject matter. Reader discretion is advised.

An Eneum or An Ally … or maybe both
He’s cruel, but there’s a tiny portion of him that has a conscience. He wants to please his father, the man who is even more cruel, the man who has no heart. People are dispensable if they don’t toe the line. When Jacob Cryson doesn’t live up to ‘daddy’s expectations, he’s called home, but not just him, he’s ordered to bring the detective he kidnapped, tortured, fell in love with, along with him.
She told him her name was Michelle, that was a lie. Her name is Laila, detective Laila Ashby. She’ on his trail because she wants to find his brother, Kevin, a brother who has just dropped off the map, a brother she’s investigating, a brother Jake covers for by not telling his dad what Kevin did…. Or maybe failed to do is the better wording.
Jake knows there’s a mole and has to find just who is the betrayer. Taking Laila should give him the answer. Everyone breaks under torture, right? Hmmmm, games are being played and just who will win and keep breathing?
SIDE NOTE:
…Today’s headlines are telling us more and more about human trafficking. I chose to read this book to gain better insight into those headlines. This may be fiction but there are lessons to learn here, precautions to take.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
