"INTRIGUING AND REFRESHING"

Fresh Fiction Review

Wicked Lies
Karina Cooper

Reviewed by Louise Evans
Posted March 5, 2013

Romance Paranormal

WICKED LIES a novella by KARINA COOPER, is the story of Jonas Stone and Danny Granger. Jonas Stone has been in hiding since leaving his van and being taken to a safe place that the rebellion has set up for him. We are also filled in on what has happened to Danny after he was taken from Parker's apartment by mission operatives. Danny is also the grandson of the rebellion's leader May, who is also a ghost. I am not giving away spoilers this is all revealed in Sacrifice the Wicked.

Jonas is attracted to Danny but worries about Danny being too young, he also worries because Danny is the ghost's grandson and wants to make sure that nothing jeopardizes that relationship and power that she has and that he needs to keep his friends safe.

I have never read a sex scene between two men and did not know what to expect. It was written just as well as Karina's love scenes between a male and female. The chemistry between Jonas and Danny shows through from the first time they talk. Jonas is just a voice in Danny's ear, but Jonas has been able to see Danny for the past 3 days threw a feed he used to hack into the cell Danny has been held in for the last week. Danny wants to make sure that Jonas is not able to see the condition that he is in and in usual Jonas style he makes sure that Danny is comfortable talking to him so Jonas can get him out without anyone seeing him and hopefully not injured anymore that what he already is. So he tells Danny what he knows will make him comfortable and able to trust him.

Danny has to break through Jonas's tough emotional armor that he has wrapped around himself and has never allowed another male to penetrate.

WICKED LIES introduces us to a new and growing relationship that needed to be told, but would make a book too long. I am glad that KARINA COOPER wrote WICKED LIES because it gives us a better view into the character of Jonas.

SUMMARY

Jonas Stone has been given his first independent operation: rescue the insurrection leader’s imprisoned grandson from the Mission. Getting the job done means more than getting Danny Granger out-it means staying with him while he heals. Staying too close, for way too long.

Danny is everything Jonas isn’t: confident, optimistic, honest--a man to be reckoned with. If only it didn’t mean going against everything Jonas has planned. He’s kept his secrets for years, hid behind a mask no one could see through...until now. Danny isn’t the kind of man Jonas deserves. But he might be exactly the man he needs...
