Dark Revenge by Jennifer Leeland is not part of a series but there is definitely room for Ms. Leeland to start one. The world she created is very complex and with endless characters, there is room for more stories from this world.

Alexander Zeerah is the on a mission to deliver cargo to a specific point. Alex, on the first families of Teran One, is one of the last two daughter of her blood line. Tory Ingle captures her. Alex is a very complex character and strong character. It is obvious that she is torn between what she wants and what she has promised to do. She had always trusted Tory until he was exiled.

Tory Ingle was exiled from Teran One because of allegations alleged by Alex’s brother. Tory wants a new trial to prove his innocence. Tory has always loved Alex even before being exiled. Tory is a smart man who plays things close to the vest. It is obvious that he does not trust many in his life.

The chemistry between Tory and Alex is off the charts. It was fascinating to see the how both characters fought themselves to make this relationship work between them. The sex scenes were very molten hot. Sex seems to be the one thing that works between both Alex, and Tory.

I would have loved if the author spent more time with just the main characters. They seemed secondary to the story being told. Otherwise, this was a wonderful story. I enjoyed it very much. I hope there are more stories from this very interesting world she created.… (meer)
