Toxic
Toxic is not for the faint of heart. It's dark. There are some themes that might trigger some people. --> abuse, extreme violence, murder, crime, cheating (although justified) However, if you can set that aside and read it for what it is, dark, dangerous, deadly, decadent, fiction... you won't be disappointed.
I'm honestly not sure how to go about reviewing this, because I don't want to give anything away. There isn't anything super twisty, but I feel like it's better to go into Toxic a little on the blind side.
There are two parts to this story, The Before - and The After. No, the events aren't named that specifically, but there is a defining point in the heroine's life that defines the path she takes. And while our hero isn't quite a Prince (more of a King actually *rim-shot*), he's more than just a force behind the change.
Our heroine goes from nurse to waitress, and things go from bad, to better, to horrific, then to... well, you'll find out.
I hate to be that sketchy, but you may be thanking me later.
I give Toxic 4.5 pencil sketch stars.
