Carolyn D. Pentecost is a new to me author and after reading this book I will definitely be reading more from her in the future. I DEVOURED this story. I couldn’t put it down and ending up staying up until 1 am just to finish the book because I had to know where the story was going.

Claire left her past life after a tragic event in her teens. Now she is about to get married and graduate Law School, that is until someone from her past comes back. Jax is a mystery, however, as the story progresses more and more information is revealed about him. Claire and Jax definitely had chemistry from the moment they met as teenagers and even when Jax comes back into Claire’s life.

Tainted Love is full of so many twists and turns that you will be sitting on the edge of your seat from the very beginning. So many things happened that I was not expected and my jaw was on the floor. I can’t wait to read book two to get more of the mysterious town of Black River Falls.

If suspense and mystery romances are your thing this book is a MUST READ!
