Honey Cut

Lyonesse, Book 2

By: Sierra Simone

Narrated by: Oscar Reyes, Isabelle Ruther

I have one job in this arranged marriage, and that’s to seduce my husband.

It should be easy; I’m the heiress to a transatlantic fortune, bred and raised to make a good match. I’ve spent a lifetime building up my endurance, my discipline, my dedication to my god and my church. The danger lies in falling for the devil who put his ring on my finger—a mistake I made years ago, and can’t afford to make again.

There is one more danger: Tristan Thomas, former soldier and my new husband’s bodyguard. A hero who stole my heart with salt-soaked kisses on the sea.

But Lyonesse is not like other places, and this isn’t like other marriages. Soon Tristan, Mark, and I are tangled in a knot of vicious jealousy and gorgeous wickedness, where suspicion is an aphrodisiac, and secrets and vows are one and the same.

And there is something far darker at play than my real purpose, darker even than the twisted longings of my own heart. Because my husband has secrets of his own, and the reason he’ll stop at nothing to possess me could slice my soul deeper than the honeysuckle-hilted knife he gave me once upon a time.

Because when it comes to Mark Trevena and his games, the first cut is more than the deepest—it’s the sweetest. And he always leaves you begging for more…

Need More

I loved the first in the series, Iso sharing this one I struggled with at times. Just like the first in the series I do feel like I need more to their story though!! The ending I didn’t see coming!

Holy moly!

Holy moly!

What a book. I didn't think I was going to survive this one. And that ending? It wounded me. The story and these characters are enthralling. I was so sucked into this book from the second that I started reading. I literally don’t know how she does it every single time. I read a book by her and somehow, I’m always shocked and amazed by her immense talent! I did also listen to this on audio and I highly recommend it. Oscar Reyes and Isabelle Ruther did such a wonderful job bringing Tristan and Isolde to life.

I don’t want to, nor can I say too much more without giving anything away. If you’re looking for something unbelievably spicy and makes you beg for more when you’re done, then I highly recommend reading this book!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a ride!

Sierra Simone knows how to write a spicy good time. She kept me guessing the whole time. The narrators were excellent and made for a really enjoyable listening experience.

not as good as salt kiss

last book had me roped in, could not wait for next book. this book was just too different and all the 50 dollar words just seemed overkill. how does isolde be so easily manipulated.

It hurts so good

No matter how much of Sierra Simone’s works I read I’m still always surprised at the hurt she puts her characters through. The writing as always is great. I felt the spice was less than expected for one of her books. I also hoped for more Tristan chapters, but it definitely leaves you excited for book 3. However, I will say it feels like a lot of threads have been left unfinished and seems like perhaps too much for a final book to tie off without feeling rushed or incomplete in the explanation.
