About this ebook

I Followed him. Watched him. Stalked him. 

As a detective, it was my job. Jake Cryson was the best lead I had to getting information on the trafficking ring I'd been trying to bring down for the past year. He was the key. I could feel it in my bones. 

But I got caught...

...And now he has me. 

My name is Detective Laila Ashby, and this is only the beginning of my story. 

Dethroned is the third book in the interconnected standalone series Darker Places. It is part one of Jake and Laila’s story and DOES end on a CLIFFHANGER. The story picks back up in Demolished. Although helpful, It is not essential to have read the prior books in the series.This book is a dark romance, and thus contains dark subject matter. Reader discretion is advised.

Ratings and reviews

This is the 4th book I've read written by Nicole Cypher; I can’t wait to read more of her books. This is the 3rd book in the Darker Places Series; it is interconnected with the other books but can be read even if you haven’t read the others; the story continues into the next book and ends in a cliffhanger. I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.

I normally avoid cliffhangers but I recently discovered Nicole and really liked her. Since the second part is already available and the story sounded interesting I decided to make an exception. I’m so glad I did. This story is incredible! It’s incredible because Jake is unbelievably amazing! He kept surprising me and each step of the way I was tense in anticipation for whatever came next. Do NOT read any reviews with spoilers. It will ruin all the fun.

I really enjoyed this very dark romance. It was very dark, fair warning. This is a very bad boy doing very bad things to the good girl detective. It's not always necessarily sexy. Yikes! But you know, there's a happy ending so there's that. It's good, i promise. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
