RAW: REBIRTH (RAW FAMILY #3) by BELLE AURORA…Review

January 2, 2019

 

Title: RAW: Rebirth
Series: RAW Family #3
Author: Belle Aurora
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: January 2, 2019

 

Blurb
It had been
six years since my world was turned upside down.
He exposed
me to the darker side of life and I could never go back to the person I was.
I had been
through more things the average person couldn’t even relate to.
If I had
the chance to go back and do things differently though?
Not a
chance.
I’d pick
him a thousand times. A million times. For eternity.
I guess not
much has changed.
My name is
Alexa Ballentine, and I am still in love with my stalker.
My Review:

Super-violent, dark and fast-paced…I was so looking forward to the return of Twitch!”Make no mistake about it. I was dangerously in love. Recklessly in love.”

Six years have passed since Twitch left his beloved Lexi and A.J. but he’s been watching their every move. As a huge fan of the first book in this series, and a huge dark romance fan, ‘Raw:Rebirth’ was one of my most anticipated books of 2019.

Filled with multiple characters and POV’s, this is a very dark and violent story that contains scenes of graphic violence and sex. Many early readers love this story so please read it for yourself and enjoy!

Twitch and Lexi have a unique and special bond and their scenes together are the glue that holds this story together.

”I had my one in a million. I’d never find anyone like him again.”

Lexi has had to make a life for herself while Twitch has been gone and her son is whole life. I loved seeing Twitch with his son but make no mistake, this is a dark crime romance with lots of suspense. There are many dangerous characters threatening Twitch and his family. Will they be strong enough to withstand all the danger and betrayal?

The author sets the story up for other books to follow; there is lots of danger and long-simmering feuds. Be warned that there are some uber-dark moments in this book. But I very much appreciated the conclusion and the wonderful prologue.

”Don’t you know, angel?” The intensity of that look gave me chills. “No matter which map I take, they all lead back to you.”

Blurb

My marriage seemed perfect from the outside looking in.
People envied me. They wanted my life, wanted to be me.

Mrs Alejandra Gambino.

Wife of Dino Gambino. Daughter of Eduardo Castillo.
Respected. Loved. Mob royalty.

They had no idea of the horrors that lurked behind closed doors.

They didn’t know I was at the lowest point a person could reach.

Enter Julius Carter.

Aloof, handsome, blue-eyed Julius Carter.

He saved me.

I screwed him over.

Now everybody was after me. My life was forfeit.

It was only a matter of time. I was a dead woman walking.

The question was, who would get to me first?

My name is Catarina.
Or, that’s who I was christened to be, anyways.
I live in a convent. I am a nun in training. A postulant.
I am eighteen years old.

I am a predator.
No one is safe from me.

I am protected.
No one can get to me.

By day one way, by night another. They call on me.

My name is Catarina.
Codename: Night Fury.

No one is safe from me.

I will come for you.

 

Review

Belle Aurora has sealed her reputation as one of the most versatile authors around! Night Fury is action packed, filled with hot sex scenes, characters that I’m dying to read more about and a great storyline. Who are these people?? Who is Cat? Where did she come from? This is quick read, and will leave you wanting more. Loved Night Fury and look forward to reading more about Cat, Bob, Marco, and the rest of the crew!

(ARC provided by the author in return for an honest review.)

Teaser

“I trail her down the dark, dimly-lit hall. The sounds of our footsteps echo through the narrow space.
I’m walking towards my destiny.

How poetic.
We reach the end of the hall. Frankie clicks in her keypad code. More humming and buzzing, the steel door clicks opens and finally – finally – I’m home.
I take the first step towards the rest of my life. And I do it wearing a shit-eating grin.
This is exciting.
I’m excited.
My life will be thrown one-hundred-and-eighty degrees. From boring to extraordinary.
I can’t wait.
“Welcome back to Mirage.” Frankie utters as she starts her descent down the stairs to the ground floor.”

– Catarina, Night Fury

Synopsis

*Author Note: This is not a love story. This is a story of love gone wrong.*

Growing up the way I did, you’d think I’d be more screwed up than what I actually am.

Soon as I turned sixteen, I left that bump in the road I called home and took my chances on the street.

Best decision I ever made.

Now, at the age of twenty six, I’m educated, employed and damn good at my job.

My friends have become my family. Like me, they know what it’s like to grow up unloved.

But the saying is true.

The world makes way for those who know where they are going.

That’s me.

I know where I’m going and I’ll get there eventually. On my own terms and at my own pace.

But then there’s him.

I feel his eyes on me. I see him hiding in plain sight. He watches me.

He makes me feel.

It’s unconventional.

But it’s real.

I’m sure you’re wondering how a person falls in love with their stalker.

So am I.

This isn’t a story.

This is my life.

Mini Teaser

Staring down at my chest, she takes a step closer to me and whispers miserably, “I’m here to let Brad fuck me.” My cheek ticks and head implodes. She steps closer to me to add, “He’s going to fuck me. Fuck me til I forget you. Til I forget I ever met you. He’s helping me drown you out and I like when I’m not thinkin’ about you.” 

She looks into my eyes and repeats on a whisper, “You’re poison.”
