Blurb:
With her heart literally in his hands, Celia will have to try and bargain with a devil.
Edward Fasbender is my captor.
Trapped on this island he owns everything on--including, it seems, me.
He told me he would break me, but I thought he meant in the bedroom. It turns out Edward is playing a completely different game.
And he won't stop until he's ruined me.
Slay Two: Ruin is the second book in the Slay Quartet. Slay One: Rivalry should be read first.


My Review

I was excited to get my hands on this read and Laurelin did not disappoint. This book picks up where the first one left off. My heart was in my throat and I was on the edge of my seat. The way in which this story was told made me feel for Celia and understand her better. I was hopeful my outlook on her would change and the reader gets a good glimpse into why she's the way she is. This journey was hard for Celia and she had to really look into herself and wasn't expecting Edward to push her. Her emotions were a dam she had shoved inside of her and she needed Edward. 
When Edward started this journey, he wasn't expecting Celia to be the way she was. He was expecting things to be black and white. And they weren't. She managed to wiggle her way into his life. I liked the push/shove between this couple. Their chemistry was intense and the emotions between them were explosive. I was completely captured by their journey and I need more, PRONTO! Go get this book! 


   
Excerpt:
Yes, she was calculating and manipulative, and she was very spoiled about getting her way, but that was all surface. She was an onion. There were layers and layers underneath, parts of her that she held away. Parts she showed no one. For whatever reason, I’d caught sight of what she kept hidden, whether she’d meant for that to happen or not, I couldn’t be sure. Regardless, I was captivated. There was so much to see there, so much to take down. So much of her to know and own and destroy and redesign, and like an old habit, I couldn’t break away.
She was an addiction, and I wanted to feed on it. She wasn’t supposed to be like that.
She wasn’t supposed to want to bend to my whims. She wasn’t supposed to open up and give what I asked for. She wasn’t supposed to be so eager to take what I gave her. She certainly wasn’t supposed to see past my own curtain, wasn’t supposed to ask to see more.
I’m here for this, she’d said.

   
About the Author

With millions of books sold worldwide, Laurelin Paige is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author. She is a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however.
When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Game of Thrones or Letterkenny, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She's also a proud member of Mensa International though she doesn't do anything with the organization except use it as material for her bio.
She is represented by Rebecca Friedman.
