As soon as I saw teasers for Malevolent, I wanted to read it because I love dark books and this one looked particularly dark. I added it to my TBR and when we got the sign up to review it, I jumped at the chance. I was a little worried about it, I admit, because the synopsis made me think it was going to be a love triangle, but my desire to read it quickly overrode that worry and the fact that said it was a standalone didn't hurt either. I'm very glad that I didn't let anything get in the way because it wasn't as love triangley as I thought and it was a great book!
Sheriff Brady James is one HOT hero! He's everything that I love in my heroes: possessive, protective, dominant, faithful, caring, loving, and true. He's undeniably good and what you see with him is what you get. Brady is just a total bada*s, quite a commanding dirty talker, and I loved him for it all!
Malevolent is definitely a dark thriller, but the atmosphere isn't dark all the time. It's full of heat, mystery, menace, heartbreak, and love. Ms. Brightmore will have your heart racing while squeezing it half to death, she'll make you cry, make you happy, and keep you guessing. This was a fabulous debut novel; I loved it, and I'm very excited it to read the next book in this series!!!
Malevolent is told from multiple points of view and while James and his heroine are together, this story is far from over.

~ Review by Paige
Grabbing her
roughly by the arm, he hauled her back until she was flush against him,
her back to his front. Grinding his erection into her ass, he lowered his
lips to her ear. “You think you can push me like that and I won’t respond?” He
taunted, nipping her ear painfully. She let out a low moan, her body
beginning to betray her.
“You’re
mine. I won’t share you, and I’ll be damned if I let anything happen
to you,
Gwyn. The sooner you get it through your head that I own you now,
the better.”
His hand trailed down her body, cupping her aching pussy through her
shorts. Feeling her heat, he groaned. Dragging them backwards, he
hit one of the
tall trees, his hands coming up to brace her shoulders.
“Brady,
please,” she begged. Her body was a slow fire, desire taking over every part
of her being. This man and his fierce possessiveness of her awakened a
darkness in her she didn’t know existed. He pinched her nipples roughly
through her thin shirt, her back arching against him.
“You want my
cock, sugar? Right here out in the open?”
