Isabella enters the dungeon looking for trust and leaves wanting Lachlan’s violence pointed at everyone but her.
I’d gone into the dungeon to find out whether Lachlan Byrnes could be trusted and returned wanting his hands on me and his violence aimed at everyone else.
God help anyone who stood in his way when Lachlan got free.
God help me when he turned all that attention back on me.
I was already half out of my mind over a man who’d barely touched me.
~Isabella Duarte, Eyes Never Lie
About this Isabella Duarte quote
This Isabella Duarte quote captures the dangerous intimacy of Eyes Never Lie before the romance has room to become physical. Lachlan is chained, wounded, and trapped, but his power is still there. Isabella feels it. She wants his violence aimed at the monsters around her and his attention aimed back at her, even when that desire terrifies her. This is a strong post for dark romance readers who love captivity, forced proximity, protective rage, and the delicious danger of a hero who has barely touched the heroine but already owns too much space in her mind.
