When I saw the title for this book, I was reminded of the game we often play during FB takeovers. Marry Screw Kill. And I thought what an interesting concept for this story. It turned out to be so much more than I thought it would be. I found myself really unable to put this one down – so many twists and turns. So many moments that made me sigh and then cringe all in the same few pages. This story is definitely different from any game we’ve ever played.

Harlow Masters lost everything when she lost her mother at the hands of an angry boyfriend. She witnessed her mother’s death and awoke to find herself being cared for totally by one Dr. James Elliot. He became her everything – her food, her shelter, her protector. Her jailer. Isolating her from everyone and everything. Obsessed and unapologetic. His own little sex kitten. He plans to marry the much younger Harlow but Harlow knows that things are not right. She’s lost and rootless. And then someone comes along who will change everything.

Enter Sinclair Elliott. Nephew to James and a future doctor himself. When he meets Harlow his whole world, his purpose, his center changes and shifts. He sees James for who he is – a manipulator and captor of a beautiful soul. Sin and Harlow feel an instant connection and fight what they know they shouldn’t have. But nothing stops the course of love, not even an uncle who is determined to have his way.

I ran the gamut of emotions while reading MSK. Sinclair is just that – sin. But he is sexy, sincere and devoted to Harlow. His life changed and now he is determined to be the man that his patients, his friends and Harlow need him to be. Harlow made me so angry on the one hand and then made me shed anguished tears on the other. In the end she made me so proud. James… Liv Morris made this man such the villian. He disgusted me with his sadistic actions and made my sin crawl. But I wanted more. I wanted to know more about him, why he was the way he was.

I enjoyed my first read from Liv Morris very much. I’m looking forward to reading more from this amazingly talented lady. FANTASTIC, LIV!
