Merciful Lies by C.D. Gorri
5.0
NICO FREAKING FURY!!!!!!!!! I don't know where he came from, but I need more! 5 Stars!
Merciful Lies, the first book in the Jersey Bad Boys series by C.D. Gorri was absolutely fantastic! Nico Fury came and snatched my heart like a thief in the night! I don't remember the last time I devoured a book the way I did MERCIFUL LIES!
Nico Fury, the "King of the Vipers", is a morally gray business/crime boss who walks the line between shady and upstanding. What Nico wants, Nico gets and what he wants is Anna, the sister of one of his owned Markers. Anna, desperate to clear her brother Sammy's debt, gives herself to Nico for one night in exchange for her brother's clemency. A hot night of passion between the two leads to more than just the end of a debt, but the start of something more between the two. Six months later, Nico and Anna are reunited with Anna inheriting a whole new set of problems from her troublesome brother and carrying Nico's unborn child. Will Nico turn Anna away or finally get what he's wanted most, Anna in his life forever?
This book had me from chapter one! The chemistry between Nico and Anna was unmatched and I loved Nico from the second he came on page. I loved him and Anna together and the heat generated between the two created a five-alarm fire in my Kindle! I loved Anna's optimism, trusting and forgiving heart, and her passion for Nico. I loved the unapologetic possessiveness Nico had over Anna and his child. My Gawd, this man put the "P" in psychotic with his actions to protect "his Anna" and I was so here for all of his jealous shenanigans and actions no matter how brutal they were! Wow... how messed up is that?! LOL
Fans of C.D. Gorri already know that she is an excellent storyteller and is gifted at crafting amazing stories of love and the surrender of her morally grey men to their women. However, Merciful Lies takes their possessiveness to a new level with Nico Fury. His last name perfectly describes his character, as his fury was deep and his actions in this book were savage. So, you are advised to check the triggers in the book. The writing is superb, and I felt every emotion from the characters in the book. I knew from chapter one that I was going to love this book and I do. I was so sad to see it end but C.D. always gifts her readers with a satisfying HEA that will have you thinking about the characters long after you've closed the book. MERCIFUL LIES was nothing short of brilliant and C.D. Gorri has once again proven herself to be a talented Wordsmith.
This is an excellent start to the series, and I cannot wait to see what's in store for the next Jersey Bad Boy! Please write more novels like this, C.D. Gorri! I like it here! I like it here alot!
Happy Reading!
