Some demons have angelic intentions...
Caught in the middle of a vicious gang war, Espi Vialle is torn between helping a woman with a twisted past or escaping a world of crime he’s ashamed to be a part of.
But when his own dark choices threaten to destroy what little hope of a future he has left, he’ll have to face his deepest fears and risk becoming the one person who has let him down the most.
His brother.
Paramita’s Bookshelf - “What a captivating dark romance by Lana Sky! The characters, the story, the prose- everything felt like someone is claiming my mind piece by piece.”
Goodreads Reviewer - “Wow! This series keeps getting better and better.”

Chloe and Espi are two broken people just trying to do what is needed to get what they want, for one it's finding a lost loved one, for the other it's fighting the fear of becoming just like a loved one. There is a thin line between love and hate and with Espi he'd rather hate then love because he can control the hate. This is a rather unusual look on things but I guess after all he's been through it would make sense to feel the way he does.
I didn't read the first book in this series but the beginning of Refrain did a decent job of outlining what had happened, I do feel that if I had read Crescendo I may have rated this book higher because I would have had more of a background on Espi and his brother Dante. That being said this was still an enjoyable read and I do plan on reading the rest of the series. If you enjoy a good dark romance or even a romance that deals with organized crime I would recommend this book to you, I would suggest reading the series from the beginning though to get the full effect of the ongoing story. Happy Reading!!!

I am a quirky writer from the US who dabbles in dark, paranormal and contemporary romance. My stories aren't always typical, but contain a little something for everyone.
