Review: Thorns of Deceit by Eva Winners

An innocent witness to brutality. A twisted and deviant plan. Two lives forever scarred.

Aiden Callahan was a lethal, disarmingly beautiful man. A mobster forged in blood, betrayal, and sin.

Worst of all… he was my husband.

Five years ago, I did something unforgivable.

Now, my past has come to collect its debt.

I told myself I did what I had to do in order to survive. That he wouldn’t hurt me. That being the future mother to his heir would make me untouchable.
I was wrong.

The man I ran from no longer exists, and I’m no longer the woman he married.

His demons raged, loud and unforgiving. Mine refused to bow.

Together, we were chaos. Beautiful and deadly chaos.


It feels like we waited forever for Raven’s story, but it was so worth it. This is one of my favorite series ever and I never get enough of this world. Poor Raven was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and it cost her dearly. She’s only a teenager when she’s forced to marry Aiden Callahan, the older, powerful stranger from a mafia family. But it turns out Aiden isn’t so bad, and she actually likes her husband quite a lot. Her world gets turned inside-out when the father she’s never known tracks down Raven and her mother, thanks to Aiden’s sleazy uncle.

Raven’s mother led her astray and forced her to run. They both believed they were doing the best thing to keep Raven safe, but if only she’d gone to Aiden instead of listening to her mother. Raven’s spent the last five years living her best life as a student and artist in Paris with her besties but her world goes upside-down yet again when her eyes meet Aiden’s across a crowded club.

Can Aiden forgive her? Can Raven trust him again? Well, you’ll have to read it for yourself because I’m not telling but trust me when I say you won’t regret it. Raven and Aiden are absolute fire and I loved everything about their story. I’d like to thank the author and Candi Kane PR for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
