I don’t apologize or regret the destruction I’m about to cause. I’m at peace with what I must do… nothing can or will stand in my way. Not even the raven-haired beauty with golden eyes who haunts my dreams.
No one is innocent in the story of my life. Fairy tales don’t exist!
I. Make. No. Excuses.
Everyone needs to atone, and I’m the man who is going to see to it.

Excerpt
Charlie walks out of the bathroom, breaking my train of thought. She’s almost glowing. My eyes narrow as I inhale deeply.
“You okay?” She looks at me, concerned.
I stand and stroke my cock. It aches only for her apparently. Her eyes zero in on the area between my legs, and I stop before doing something I’ll regret.
“I’m fine.” Grabbing my jeans off the floor, I watch her eyes caress my body as she licks her lips.
“You hungry?” It comes out harsh, but fuck, I’m a man, and if she keeps licking her lips…
“Umm, yes, but I should get home. I have to work later.” Her eyes stay
fixated on my cock and abs while she twists her hair on top of her head with a rubber band.
“I’d like to take you to breakfast.”
This gets her attention. Her eyes find mine. She frowns and cocks her head, the sun kissing the side of her face just right.
“You’re stunning.” I reach for her. I need to shut the fuck up. After all, I need to cut her loose at breakfast.
She must be my ultimate punishment. I might as well torture myself with her, saturate myself.
A small smile plays on her lips, and I smell peppermint. She must have brushed her teeth.
“Fuck… we’re going to be each other’s downfall.”
I lean down to capture her lips in a kiss that was supposed to satisfy, not make me crave more. I’m about to pull away when her hand reaches for my cock and I know I’m entirely fucked. I try to pull back, but she moves her delicious body closer, and all my good intentions not to fuck her are fading.
My Thoughts <3
MC Romances are like my catnip- I like them… a lot. Give me an alpha guy that is a bit broken but MAYBE capable of pulling through, I want to read it! Though I am not sure what that says about me personally, haha! Cassandra Robbins’ Disciples series is ALL about that. We are immersed in the MC life and these guys are not ‘good’, but are they really ‘bad’?
We meet David in Atone and this guy is READY to make everyone that destroyed his life atone for their sins. Revenge is the ONLY thing on his mind, well other than Charlie, the girl that captured his attention before his life went down the drain. Now that he is back can he see if that fire still burns for the beauty at the diner? Or will he only be focused on revenge?
If you like MC reads, I really believe that you will like this. David does not treat Charlie well during the first part of the book and she is a bit needy for my taste, but she has some pretty redeeming qualities and I like how she grew as a person through the story as well. There are SO many twists and turns and things that make you go ‘uh oh’, but this was a heartbreaking romance that makes you hope that these two can get their HEA at the end. All in all, I definitely recommend you read this book, I enjoyed the story, the twists, and most of all the chemistry between them!
PS: Thank you to Cassandra Robbins and Candi Kane PR for allowing me an advanced copy of the book to read and review honestly!
