My Savior… Or My Ruin?
One night, and my entire life went up in flames. All because of him. Jafar. As my world burned down around me, he offered me a choice. Walk away with nothing but my freedom… Or rise to his challenge and win my fortune back.
I bargained.
I lost.
Now Jafar owns me, and even as my mind rails against his rules, my body loves the punishments he deals out when I break them.
But a gilded cage is still a prison, I’ll do anything to obtain my freedom.
Even betray the man I’m falling for.
Welcome to a disney fan’s wicked fantasy.
I don’t know what to say about this haha this is one of those books that you never thought needed/wanted and then it’s ALL you can think about.
Desperates Measures bring us to an AU of Disney characters and it features the most remarkable villians in a city that is ruled by mobs and deals in every kind of pleasure.
If you read Katee’s O’Malleys series, this one is even darker and hoter.
Jasmine is the pretty princes, raised to be nothing more than a bargain chip and trophy of whoever manages to get. But this princess longs for freedom more than anyone.
Jafar comes from nothing, and he’s playing a slow game and ten steps ahead. The weak man he works for has no ambition, but when Jasmine’s hand is sold Jafar is willing to move everything faster and get the woman he’s been looking from afar.
Desperate Measures pays tribute to it’s tittle. It’s fast, unexpected and pulls you in tight.
What surprised me the most was Jafar. For someone that to most comes across as cold calculating bastard, he’s suprisingly gentle and caring. It’s the little details with Jasmine that lets you see how much he cares and likes her, itks the way in wich he can sense and feel what she needs that makes this evil villian be so likeable.
Jasmine is a great heroine! While she starts as a more fragile creature, new to the world around her she finds herself in this book, she learns about what she wants and what she likes, and she likes so much. And theough it all she becomes empowered.
To sum it up, Desperate Measures caters to your every need in a short roller coaster. There’s hot enough to melt an iceberg scenes, a heroine that can kick ass and a villian that is as sinful as they come.
With this book, Katee Robert also opens up a door to a universe that already has me waiting impatiently and exited about what is to come.
