.... The Blurb  ....
I’ve been trapped with my abusers for a decade, abandoned by the boy I thought would be my savior. When Adrián finally comes back for me, the boy I loved is gone. A hard, ruthless man has taken his place: a sadistic drug lord who wants to make me his.

Adrián seems to hate me as much as I loathe him, but that doesn’t stop him from abducting me, dragging me from Colombia to California to escape the people hunting us. We’re on the run from his father and my husband—the men who have tormented me for ten years. Even if we make it out alive, I’ll never be free.

I’m far too broken and betrayed to ever love Adrián again, but he’ll stop at nothing to possess me, body and soul.

.... My Thoughts   ...
In Short
- Stealing Beauty is a dark romance with a fast paced story line.
- It was really unpredictable.
- There were a few parts which frustrated me but I still really enjoyed this book.

In Long
This is my first book by Julia and it won't be my last. What a talented author who has combined suspense, steamy scenes alongside a tough story line with damaged but addictive characters.

Stealing Beauty is a dark romance with a fast paced story line and some pretty intense scenes that got my heart racing. I loved how everything was unpredictable and you really couldn't make assumptions.

There were some parts which did frustrate me a little, Adrian assuming the worst of Valentina and not thinking outside of the box being a main one. However Julia did explain this further in the book and it started to make more sense as to why this was the case. 


Final Thoughts 
Stealing Beauty takes you on a raw journey with two characters who have both had a difficult journey in life. It's dark and addictive. 

Quotes
'This was a distorted, dark version of what i'd always wanted.'
