DARKNESS DESERVED
BY JESSICA SPOON
SYNOPSIS:
Harper Reagan has been through everything a woman could possibly go through. Losing her parents and entering foster care, only to be abused by her foster father. Running away at fifteen, she enters the world’s oldest profession to survive. And survive she did.
Barely...
If you call abuse, counted as property and tortured to no end surviving then that was what she did…survived. Her life was spared, but at what cost. Long ago Harper had died. Today, due to those decisions she made, she is left existing with no choice to do anything else. Staring the devil in the face daily for as long as she did, left its mark and pain behind for her to live with forever.
The pain of that survival scars her deeper than any physical wound she's ever received.
Harper is finally living a better life and has a great business, friends, and a home finally her own. She will do anything to keep her past hidden, including jeopardizing her only chance at love and a truly good man.
Breccan Caldwell is everything Harper doesn't deserve. He's gorgeous, successful, caring and a true gentleman.
Can Breccan show Harper who she truly is? Or will he be pushed out by the darkness she allows herself to be consumed with?

MY REVIEW:
Let's just say Jessica for your first book you have knocked it out of the park. This story is so amazing it sucks you in from start to finish you will not be able to put this down with out knowing what is going to happen next. Harper who is a true survivor with such a dark past which I believe no woman should ever go through in a lifetime let alone such a young age that she did. You will find in the story that her past in broken down thru out the book but it was done so well that you cannot but only feel the darkness that she has. It does turn around when a family friend helps her and things start looking up for her. She's living the life she wants with the support of great friends Nikko, Brynne, Avery and her dog Bane. She is also the owner of a nice classy bar called Ricomincare which means "begin again". Until she meets Breccan who happen to walk into her bar and she feels that her life will get turned upside down. He is just one hot sexy alpha male that knows what he is doing. Harper with her dark past doesn't want anything to do with him and tries to blow him off at every attempt he makes to be with her. The problem is she can't get him out of her head and he can't either. They have this pull towards each other that neither of them can ignore.
This story will have you going on a roller coster of emotions. You will also find that harpers story is not the only one that is heartfelt because Breccan has a story of his own as well. The problem is that she doesn't want him to know her past and doesn't want to be in the public eye she has done a lot of work in keeping her dark skeletons away. Breccan being such a public figure can ruin everything if seen with him. That can bring back the darkness that takes over her from her past.
By the time you finish Darkness Deserved you will say WTF, OMG are you freaking kidding me I want more. Can we just say "book hang over"
*WARNING, WARNING* ladies the scenes in this story will have you not knowing which way is up or down. It's that hot your going to need something to cool yourself off with. Just like this one:
"Hard and fast, Brecc. Please” I beg. His mouth quirks up into my sexy half grin and he slowly pulls out almost completely, then slams back into me; giving me exactly what I want. As he always does. “Yes...” I hiss out and throw my head back, gripping his neck to stay upright. His hands slam onto the counter for purchase as he continuously plows into me. My head slowly lolls forward and a wide smile spreads across both our faces. I lean back as his head angles down to pull my nipple into his mouth. He bites down hard and my orgasm begins to take off. He shoves into me faster, racing towards his own finish. “Yes... Fuck yes, Breccan!” I scream out grasping his neck and digging my nails into it as my inner muscles clamp onto his throbbing cock."
Another One of my favorite parts in the book is when Breccan write this letter to Harper if this doesn't get you to fall in love with him I don't know what will:
Sweet Dove,
Your phone is off and I have no way of contacting you other than this. I wish I knew what had happened since this morning but I don’t. I had the best night and morning of my life with you. I swear to you that I will not give up. You can try to hide forever, but it won’t work. You were made for me. I won’t say the words that I know I feel deep in my soul, because I know they will mean little to you. You say that I don’t know you. I know many things about you. I know you have been through something I couldn’t possibly conjure up in my head. I know you don’t deal well with emotions. I know you like to be in control. I know you are a fierce and loyal friend. I know you are a survivor. I know you were made for me. I know you actually do like bacon, but you didn’t want to eat any in front of me. For some reason. I know you changed your name when you were twenty and there is no record of you before that. I know you. I know you Harper Isabelle Reagan. I know your body. You like it rough. You like it hard. You like it sweet and tender. You like it when I hold you. You like to hold me but can’t admit it to yourself. You like everything about me, and I have no doubt you willnever waver from whatever you learn about me. I’m not afraid to know you. Whatever has happened to you will not change my feelings for you. You are mine Harper. You’re my dove. Made just for me. My perfect half that has been missing for far too long. I’ve been searching for you for thirty-four years and didn’t know it.
Please call me. I will not give up on you. Don’t give up on us.
Forever yours,
Breccan.
