Synopsis
Evil cannot take hold of an unconsenting soul.
Do not be amazed that hell is empty, since all the devils live here.
One by one, they will meet their hellish fate.
One down…
Three to go.Easton
A tyrannous society has discovered our most atrocious secret and decided to wage war on us.
They’ve had their fun with Finn, and now it’s my turn to be their little puppet.
Someone should have warned them that I don’t play well with others.
If they think I’m going to bend over and let them screw with my life sans lube, they are sorely mistaken.
I’m no man’s pawn.
At least that’s what I told myself right up to the day I received a little black envelope that mercilessly sealed my fate—they’ve gone after the one person I would sacrifice anything for.My friends.
Myself.
Even her.Scarlett
They call him the dark prince of Asheville, a silvered eyed rebel without just cause for his defiance.
But to me, Easton Price is so much more than the mischievous persona he openly flaunts.
He’s the beautiful nightmare I desperately try to resist with clenched teeth and scarred heart.
As the pastor’s niece, I’m considered the epitome of good, while he’s the embodiment of sin.
There’s just one thing wrong with that assumption—I’m not that good.
And Easton is going out of his way to prove it.Goodreads

Review
I absolutely loved See No Evil, so I have high hopes for Hear No Evil, and I have to say I was a little disappointed.
I still enjoyed the story, but Easton had the potential to be such a great character. I was let down by how he just seemed to complain about everything. Given Easton’s personality, especially in the first book, I expected him to have gone through a lot as a child, and not that it wasn’t hard at times. It was nothing like I imagined. I also didn’t like the relationship with his stepfather. It annoyed me that for seemingly no reason at all, he just could not give the guy a break. It made me distrust Easton’s opinion of anyone, really.
Scarlett was perfectly fine, but nothing exceptional. I didn’t feel like she had the strength or cunning that I wanted. She quickly fell in line with everything; I found myself annoyed with her most of the time. I also didn’t feel much in the way of chemistry between these two. I loved Stone and Finn, and after reading about those two, Easton and Scarlett really fell flat.
I also don’t feel like we learned anything new about the society. While we learned a bit more about how the players are tangled in each other’s lives, this book seemed more like filler, especially as I wasn’t enamored with Easton and Scarlett. I am hoping that the next book gives us some more answers and has a bit of a better love story.
