Jessica Mackey is living a meticulously fabricated lie of necessity. She's left the secret tragedy of her past behind along with who she was and is forging ahead with a clean slate. Jess soon discovers that passion can't be left behind; her own and that of the one man that sees who she really is. Whose presence caresses her soul in a way that may breach the peaceful life Jess has made for herself.
Devin Castile sees a young woman that is the missing puzzle piece to his existence and who is also the victim to a heinous crime. Devin convinces himself that he can remain emotionally distant even while indulging his physical desire for her. When the lies that Jess has made crumble before their attraction and the truth is revealed, one of them might pay with their life... or their very being.

MY Review
A Terrible Love was angsty, sexy, and mysterious. It was a quick read that kept you interested the whole time. It deals with some dark issues, and at times seems to have a love square. Though there were a few inconsistencies in the book, and the storyline was somewhat predictable, I really liked this book. The writing was great, and I loved the POV change at the end. There were also some great quotes in this book too.
“We're terrible together."
"It's not about true love, Jess."
"If it were love then it's a terrible love.”
"It's not about true love, Jess."
"If it were love then it's a terrible love.”
“I guess I'm giving in to life. It's like the ocean breaking against the rocks: it simply wears me down until I given in. It was only a matter of time.”
Swoony Points: 7.5
I love Devin "Cas" Castile! Total, unadulterated Alpha Male! He's a mysterious biker, that seems to show at the perfect moments, be it to save Jess or to spend some QT working her up! Holy hell does he work her up! The best part of the book is one of the chapters at the end is from his pov, after all the drama and secrets are out. He is fierce in his protectiveness and his Terrible Love!
Overall this was a great read! It has some very interesting elemnets, with Jess bing a ballerina and her dark past. It's a good one, pick it up.
