Wrath is the second book and final conclusion in the Wrong Series by LP Lovell and Stevie J. Cole.  These two outstanding authors teamed up to write a dark erotic romantic thriller that takes the reader into dark underworld of the deep south.

Wrath cannot be read as a stand alone novel.  It must be read in series order.  It picks up where Wrong, book one, left off on a major cliffhanger.

The Wrong series is not for the faint of heart.  This series is sexually graphic, has multiple rape scenes, extreme violence, and graphic language.  If any of these are hard limits …do not buy the books.

Wrath picks up where Wrong left off.  The frightening cliffhanger was only the beginning.  Joe Campbell has taken Tor.  He wants to punish Jude before he kills them both.  What happens in those six days is horrific and will forever change both Tor and Jude’s life.  They are both going to walk away broken and damaged beyond repair.

The body can physically heal but the mind and soul are quite a different issue.  Both are haunted by what Joe Campbell has done to them and their family.  Both want revenge.  Both are furious and will never rest until Joe Campbell is dead.

Is revenge worth the cost they are going to pay?  As this story unfolds it will become clear that revenge has a very high price.  They have come too far to walk away.  Joe won’t allow them to walk away.

After everything is said and done and Wrath has been sated , they will still be paying the price.  These two may never get their happily ever after.

I am no stranger to dark erotic romantic thrillers and love a good dark read.  Wrath was intense and at times a bit too violent.  It turned my stomach at times but it also made me admire the both Tor and Jude all the more.  Their fortitude and strength was the glue that held them both together in desperate times.

Tor evolved into a different person.  She was no longer innocent and pure of heart.  She embraced her darkness and allowed it to make her a stronger person.  The one thing that remained the same was her love for Jude.

If you want an intense dark thriller, the Wrong series is the go to books.

*** Review for Wrong – book one in the Wrong Series- is below.

Tor
My life was mapped out and planned to perfection. I knew exactly what I wanted and where I was going, until I was thrust into his world and ripped from mine. In the blink of an eye everything shattered, proving to be nothing more than a cheap illusion. Now I’m living in this twisted form of hell, where enemies and friends are one and the same. I thought I wanted perfection. Now I don’t know what I want – perhaps not even my own freedom.Jude
I’m the definition of wrong. I’m violent, I’m greedy, and I stop at nothing to win. I’m a notorious bookie and in my game paying with your life is not just a figure of speech. You lose, I collect. I take whatever you have. She’s collateral for a debt, and if that debt’s not paid someone will die. This should be just business, so why can’t I kill her?
Everything is not always as it seems.
Lust. Blood. Lies.

I was looking forward to starting the new exciting Wrong Series by LP Lovell and Stevie J. Cole.

I will say that this book is not a fluffy feel good type romance.  This book has graphic language, extreme violence, and implications of rape.  If these are hard limits please do not buy the book.  These graphic uses and situations are an integral part of this story and a driving force in the plot.

Wrong came as a complete surprise to me.  The plot was extremely complicated and unpredictable.  The characters are complex.  Jude Pearson is a ruthless bookie.  He does not give his clients second chances.  He would just as soon kill them and write the money owed off as a loss.  But first he is going to make them suffer.  He is going to take everything they own and everything they hold dear.  He shows no weakness.  But even Jude has his limits.  He would never harm a woman.  He would never endanger a woman’s life.  He would never take a woman against her will.

When a client uses his girlfriend as collateral for his debt, it goes against everything Jude believes in.  He also suspects it may be a set up.  The young woman is strong, defiant, and fights for her freedom at every turn.  When the whole episode goes completely wrong, she shows the strength of will and bravery that would put grown men to shame.  When she would rather take her own life than become a victim, it is too much for Jude.  Not only has she earned his respect, she has also won his heart.

As this story unfolds it becomes quite clear that not only was Jude set up but is also being hunted.  He has a powerful enemy that will stop at nothing until everything in his life is destroyed.  Including the woman he loves.

The characters in this book were phenomenal.  I truly admire Tor’s strength.  She adapted and survived.  She found love in an unlikely place.  Jude was as hard as they come except when it came to Tor.  He allowed her to see his vulnerabilities and proved that he could give her love she deserved.

Wrong ends on huge a cliffhanger.  I can’t wait for the rest of the story.

I highly recommend Wrong for fans of dark erotic romances.
