Congrats & Happy Release to Jen Frederick & Jessica Clare!
Last Hit: Reloaded is LIVE!
Nickolai & Daisy’s Story continues...
There was a time when Nick loved the fear he instilled in his enemies. His tattoos alone promised danger, but it was the look in his eyes that delivered on it. A contract killer since he was just a boy, Nick has now forged a new life and a new identity with the woman who followed him, captured him, and changed him.
Synopsis:
He terrified Daisy. Once. But she couldn't resist, and she ignored every warning. It paid off. Now she's part of a new beginning, a fresh start in America helping him to leave behind a reckless and violent past as a professional killer. But the past is never easy to outrun, especially when so much of it thrives on revenge.
A new threat has emerged from the shadows, and now Nick and Daisy have no choice but to rely on Nick's killer skills to protect them from everything they've tried so hard to escape.

Quote 1
Between each caress I tell her how she consumes me. “I think of you always. Art is about passion. In every curve, I see your breast and in every face, I see your lips. In rolling hills of landscapes, I envision the dip in your waist and the rise of your hip. In the tendrils of vines, I see your honey hair entangling me.” The depths of my obsession are laid bare for her. If I were to lose her, I would be nothing. I would burn myself to ashes so that the winds could carry me to the four corners and where each molecule would search endlessly for her.
“You’re always with me, Nick. In my heart and mind and soul. I promise you,” she gasps.
“Then show me how much you want me to fill you. Show me your desire.”
Quote 2
As he turns away, I call to him softly, “Detective McFadden, I would not endanger a soul on that campus. My beloved attends classes there, and it is my greatest desire that she be safe and happy. There are many reasons why I am not the man you seek.”
He swings back quickly. “I don’t think you are the university shooter, if that’s what you’re implying.”
“I imply nothing. I am responding to your litany of complaints and questions about my existence. Your attention does not frighten me, but do not mistake this. If you endanger Daisy or her father in any way, there will not be enough pieces left of you for even your loved ones to identify.”
At my threat, he gives me a bemused smile. “But you don’t give a rat’s ass about yourself?”
“I can take care of myself, Detective, and anyone that I love.” The chill is seeping into my bones, and I need to go inside and warm myself in the sunshine of Daisy’s love. “Good evening to you.” I nod and open the front door of the building.
Quote 3
Whatever it was, the women in my classes steer clear of me.
I can’t blame Nick. He wants to keep me safe, and I love him for it. After my kidnapping last year by Yuri and Vasily, I don’t mind his hovering. It makes me feel secure, even if it chases away any chance of friendship with “regular” people.
As I swipe my iPad and open the text to the class’s lesson, I tell myself that these things don’t matter. That the approval of my peers does not matter to me. I have Nick, and that should be everything.
But in some ways, not having any girlfriends to chat with makes me feel as if I am still that isolated young woman living in a boarded-up house with my father. I had no friends then, either. And funnily enough, I thought that friends and life would come easily once I escaped his house. And while Nick blazed his way into my life like a comet and paved a path for me, I still struggle with everyday things.
Like small talk. I never realized how much of a favor my friend Regan did me when she took me under her wing. But now Regan’s in Texas and I’m having to figure things out on my own.

Author Jessica Clare
This is a pen name for Jill Myles.
Jill Myles has been an incurable romantic since childhood. She reads all the 'naughty parts' of books first, looks for a dirty joke in just about everything, and thinks to this day that the Little House on the Prairie books should have been steamier.
After devouring hundreds of paperback romances, mythology books, and archaeological tomes, she decided to write a few books of her own - stories with a wild adventure, sharp banter, and lots of super-sexy situations. She prefers her heroes alpha and half-dressed, her heroines witty, and she loves nothing more than watching them overcome adversity to fall into bed together.
My Review:
I love the Hitman Series and Nick and Daisy are one of my favorite book couples, so of course I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book :) I was so craving another taste of the delicious Ukrainian ;) And I wasn't disappointed :) I was caught in the story after the first few words and the book was so captivating that I couldn't put it down :)
I loved getting a new dose of Nikolai's intense and dramatic self. And I have to say that every time I read how the big bad alpha male softens in front of Daisy and worships the ground she walks on, completely melts my heart :) I love the contrast between his two personalities :)
Daisy, on the other hand, is his exact opposite. She is so innocent in her understanding of the world and has an amazingly big heart. It is definitely interesting to follow Nick and Daisy's everyday struggle to fit in and how they slowly adapt. They both definitely touched my heart with everything they do for each other: from the ways how Nikolai is ready to do everything in his power to keep Daisy happy and safe and the the same time not stifling her and pushing her into the nightmare she lived as a teenager, to the ways Daisy is trying to brighten Nick's everyday life and erase the worry and tension from his eyes. In my opinion, they fit perfectly together :)
In addition to the heart-melting, tender and heart-breaking moments, there are some seriously hot scenes that will leave you breathless :) The chemistry between Daisy and Nick is simply off the charts and the show it on more than one occasion ;) So be prepared for some pantie melting hotness ;)
In a few words, I immensely enjoyed reading this short story in the Hitman Series :) I definitely recommend it to all fans of the books. If you still haven't met Nick and Daisy, you are missing a lot so don't waste any more time and #oneclick these amazing stories and start reading :) Me, personally, I can't wait for the next book to come out :)
