The war was waged. The king got his queen, but where did that leave me?
When I thought there was no hope, that suffering this lonely life was my destiny, I saw her. The bubblegum pink skirt caught my attention, but her doe eyes captured my heart. Could she be my SAVIOR?
With her, I don’t have to hide the demons that haunt me, or to relive my darkest days alone.
With me, she’s free to be whoever she wants to be. She’s amazing.
Together, we’re two people clinging to a ray of sunshine that only the other can see.
I let my guard down. I got too comfortable. I thought the war had been won when, in reality, it had just begun. When old debts accrue, past demons return to collect their dues.
To find the SOLACE these young lovers crave, will they have to sacrifice the one thing they hold most SACRED?

“I’m not an angel.”
Oh mon dieu ! Ce livre est magnifique. Sacred par S. L. Scott est une oeuvre d'art! If I thought only Alex and Jason could ruin me, I was wrong. Because Cruise has done it in the best way possible.
This book is a piece of perfection. S. L. Scott’s writing is poetically seductive. She is wonderfully talented. The stories she creates are painfully addictive. Every book of her has a especial touch. They have something that make you want more. It is like you always crave for more and more of her books. There is not greater pleasure than reading her books. Sacred is not the exception.
It could be read as an stand alone but it involves people from previous books. I recommend you to start the Kingwood Duet before you read this one because this way you will enjoy it the most. Many of whom have read Savage and Savior had fallen for Cruise. He has something too appealing for his own good.
Sacred is a beautiful book wrapped in a sexy cover. It is brilliantly written.from the beginning to the end. The characters are strong and well developed. The plot is brilliant. This time S. L. Scott delivers a heartache story where the characters have endured so much pain during their life. She presents us two damaged souls trying to find their place in the world.
“I think I just met the one person who speaks to my body and mind, and makes me feel alive again. Dove. My little peacemaker. She smells like heaven, but I bet she tastes like sin. Undoing.”
Cruise is trouble with capital letters. He is not the type of guy you take home to meet your parents. He is an enigma. He is loyal and he is capable of sacrifice himself. He endured a hard situation that lead him to close himself. He has lost his way until fate give him a chance to find happiness.
“I’ll claim your soul as mine and keep it forever.”“You sound like the devil.”“I never claimed to be an angel.”
Clara is a strong young woman who has a hard life. She is also a survivor. She is trying to heal her wounded soul. She does not feel beautiful. Her past is shadowing her future. Cruise will be her saviour. Her dark angel with a heart of gold. She craves happiness. Will Cruise give her what she wants?
“I’m the one who wants you to be mine, but I’ll be your biggest regret.”
Two shattered souls will find their way to put back the pieces. They will have to work together. They will learn to trust each other. They will be free to love. They will heal the scars life gave them.
“I don’t know who you are outside these walls, but I like who we are together.”
Clara and Cruise are one of the sweetest and strongest couples. Fate has brought them together at the right time. They are survivors and they belong to each other.
“My little dove free right into my life when I bedded her most”
I love every page of this book. I love the suspense. This book literally blow my mind. It was intense, painful and hunting. At some point my heart broke a little. The hard things Clara endured made me cry. She was so strong. Her life is an example that God never gives us more than we can bear.
Clara finds her saviour and hope. Cruise finds his peace and soul mate.
Intense, passionate, heart achingly and wonderful, this book is a wild ride. Clara and Cruise’s story will touch your heart in a bittersweet way. Five stars are not enough for this enthralling book. This is MUST READ you won't want to miss. I highly recommend you this book.
”He is an angel dressed as devil, making me want to commit sins against the heavens.”

EXCERPT
Holy shit.
I see pink.
Bubblegum pink.
Curvy ass under a fitted skirt. Tight as fucking—good God almighty. Like a flame, I’m drawn to her. I stand, not even sure why, but I’m moving before I can stop myself following a bubblegum pink skirt that just so happens to be attached to a killer little body and a head of brown hair that flows to the middle of her back.
“Hey?” What the fuck? Why’d I yell that?
Damn. I stumble. She reaches as if she’s going to catch me before I fall. I’m falling all right, but not to the ground. I stop, standing tall and straightening my shoulders. Real smooth. I actually fucking stumble when she looks back and our eyes meet.
A halo of yellow sunshine surrounds her, an angel sent from the heavens to save me. The beauty asks, “Are you all right?”
“Me?”
A smile that rivals the heavens appears.
“Yes, you.”
“I’m good, so great.”
That pretty smile grows, and a sweet giggle follows. “I’m glad.” The longer we hold eye contact, the more her composure falters, an unease entering her pretty hazels. “Okay, I should go then.”
“No.”
“No?”
“No. Stay.”
“Stay?” she asks in the same confused tone as the last question.
“Yes.” Stepping closer, I hold out my hand.
“I’m Cruise. What’s your name?”
Her hand slips into mine and I’m tempted to not just shake it, but never let it go. “Nice to meet you, Cruise. If you’ll excuse me—”
That’s when I notice the books held to her chest with her other hand. “Are you a student?”
“No.” Her reply comes fast with a look of horror filling wide eyes. “I’m not. Are you?”
“No.”
The relief between us is palpable as our sighs fill the space. Her eyes glance down to our adjoined hands, my hold on her still just as firm. “May I have my hand back, Cruise?”
“Yes,” I reply, then reluctantly release her.
“I’m late for an appointment.”
I don’t want her to go. I like looking at her. I like talking to her and I really like holding her hand. She has fine features, but I can’t stop staring at her cherry-kissed lips. She turns to walk away too soon, so I call out,
“Hey, I never got your name.”
“Maybe I’ll see you around.”
She’s not showy when she saunters off, but I watch rapt by every sweet sway of her hips. I find myself tugging at the collar of my shirt, that all-wrong-itchy feeling returning.
Fuck it.
I run after her.
Sidling up beside her, I keep her pace, and ask, “Why won’t you tell me your name?”
“Because you don’t need to know it.”
“I want to know it.”
She stops, and looks at me. “Just because you want it, doesn’t mean I owe it to you.”
Feisty. Getting a woman’s name isn’t usually a problem for me, but I respect her argument too much to counter with one of my own. “You’re right. Absolutely right.”
This time I notice how the white sweater hugs the front of her body. Damn. I invade her personal space, captivated by her defiance. “I’ve been rude. My apologies.”
“I don’t need an apology, but I do need to go. I’m running late.” She takes a few steps away from me, but says, “Have a good life.”
My hands rise in the air, exasperated with this outcome. “You’re really not going to tell me?”
Her laughter splinters the air. “Unfortunately no. I can tell you’re the kind of trouble I should definitely walk away from. Name intact.” Quick stepping with determination, I watch as she crosses the parking lot.
Living in the capital of Texas with her family, Scott loves traveling and avocados, beaches, and cooking with her kids. She's obsessed with epic romances and loves a good plot twist. Her favorite color is blue, but she likens it more toward the sky than the emotion.
