QuickShot Review 4 stars

This is more dirty, smutty goodness from Ms. Cox featuring Quinn and Elyse and ladies, I AM HERE FOR IT. All day, every day. 

It’s directly tied to the first book, I, Porn Star, so I recommend reading that first. You do not need to read the second book in the series.There’s not a whole helluva lot of new plot going on and I would say it's more of a treat for lovers of Quinn and Elyse than introducing new readers to this series but I am good with that. Quinn’s still messed up emotionally (and I liked that Ms. Cox delves into that a bit more), Elyse still loves his hot messiness (and she has her own issues to deal with) and all the while, there is a bunch of hot sex going on. So, to recap - some fallout angst that doesn't mess with my couple plus some really great love scenes? 

*sings* these are a few of my favorite things. :)

I would recommend it if you’re into erotic romances and if you read the first book.

Another great story from this author.  This was a steamy, sexy story from the beginning until the end.  I was so happy to get back into their world to see how they were.  I was more than happy with this story and I can't wait for more from this author.

4*-This is an excellent book-I would recommend this to anyone who even remotely liked this genre! I couldn’t-and wouldn’t-put this down until I finished it. Could some things have been changed? Absolutely, but I found myself loving it anyway. Kudos to the author for writing such an amazing book :)

Zara Cox is one of my new go-to authors, I promise. I don't know where she's been all my life. It's been a couple of months since I first read Beautiful Liar and I fell in love with Quinn and Elyse.

In Wicked S.O.B. Zara Cox does not disappoint. I thought that after Beautiful Liar, Quinn and Elyse's story would've ended. It really did, and I wouldn't have imagined a sequel would be needed because the end of the previous book was satisfying. But, gosh, Zara Cox did such a fabulous spin with this sequel that I couldn't get enough of them.

Quinn and Elyse are flawed, pretty fucked up characters trying to create a new way of life for them after the terrible things they've lived. I'd say this sequel gives the reader a deeper look into their lives and how they're coping after the mess from a year ago.

Quinn struggles more than Elyse in getting used to their new reality, and accepting life can be good and that he can actually enjoy it only if he lets himself try. His struggle is real, his possessiveness of Elyse is just as strong as the love he feels for her. I love how alpha he is at the same time he's a teddy bear. Though it seems he's got all the power over Elyse, it really is Elyse who has all the power over him. I just love, love, love their dynamic in and out of the bedroom.

Book by book, Zara Cox is becoming one of those authors whose books I'd highly recommend to everyone who loves erotic thrillers.

While I loved the drama of Beautiful Liar, I wasn't totally sold on the romance. So I was eager for this novella to rectify that.

And it definitely did! 

For me, I actually got to see why these two are a good match as lovers and as partners in life. Instead of focusing on the antics and drama of the previous novel, you get to watch these characters try to establish a sense of everyday normalcy. It's all about their relationship and navigating it in a way that works for them. It really grounded these characters for me and improved my overall impression of them as a couple.

But it definitely has that spice you expect from this series. If these two weren't talking out their relationship, they were physically exploring it. 

It also has some great nostalgia to the original novel that brings everything full circle.

It's a solid novella that has enough heat and romance to satisfy fans!

"Quinn Blackwood, mind-fuck expert." 

It was so wonderful to go back to the story that turned me on to such an amazing author. Porn Star was my introduction to the word wizardry of Zara Cox and she is now one of my favorite authors. She blew my mind with that first story, and Wicked S.O.B. takes me back to that same couple and completes their story. I fell hard for Q. He's an unapologetic asshole to everyone but her. And now, he's even more so. He's damaged, so broken that he sees no good in himself. But he's selfish and refuses to give up the love of his life, even if he thinks she deserves better than him. He's possessive, and obsessed, but the feeling is mutual. He's had the same effect on her. They are everything to each other, but how much is too much?

They've been in the dark together. Both taking what they needed from each other. The blindfold has been removed and the secrets revealed. Can they accept each other's demons? Can they find a future together in spite of their pain. Can they survive it a second time when the danger returns? Will their obsession save them, or kill their love. Will his smothering safety net be too much for her to handle? Will his fear of losing her, cause him to lose her? How much is too much?

Mind blow. Again. I can't get enough of this author and her dirty Dark Desires. I want more! The line forms here...
