Entangled (Cold Love #3) by Scarlet Blackwell

Entangled features an instant attraction with a lot of animosity and feral banter that’ll have you experiencing every emotion known to man! While Entangled is a standalone from the other two books of the series, the story continues in the second part, Revived.

From the blurb:

He’s a cop tangling with the most dangerous man in town…

“As long as he knows the deal, it’s fine. He hates cops, so it should make for some pretty rough scratch-your-back sex.”

Chief of police Jamie Allen is smitten by the new arrival in his remote Alaskan town of Barrow until he realises Ephram Welles comes with baggage—he’s an ex-con.

Any liaison between them is strictly forbidden. Jamie would be risking his job and reputation if he tangles with a convicted felon.

But Ephram isn’t easy to resist. He’s everywhere Jamie turns, and the mutual chemistry between them is sizzling hot, just waiting to explode. Jamie’s willing to risk everything for just one night of passion with Ephram, but can he stop there? As he learns more about Ephram, he starts to realize that his feelings run way deeper than lust and can’t be denied.

“I don’t know how to carry on. I thought I could, but I can’t. I don’t have anyone. I could disappear, and no one would notice.”

Ephram’s running from his past and his own loneliness since he lost everything in one moment of madness. He’s come thousands of miles to an isolated community to start again and the last thing he needs or wants is a cop prying him open inch by inch, but that’s exactly what Jamie seems hell-bent on doing. Ephram doesn’t need this complication. He’s tormented by memories of prison and he hates cops with a vengeance. But Jamie’s a different proposition from anyone he’s ever met before. He’s the sort of guy Ephram’s been looking for all his life, even though he knows he should throw him away...

Tatted_book_freak's Review:

As always, Scarlett brings another energetic and mind blowing story of illicit affairs. Entangled quickly became my favorite of the series thus far, with the past experiences and trauma of both characters, brought emotions to the forefront, making the reader experience every emotion in this masterpiece. 

𝙃𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙖 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙬𝙤 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙢 𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙞𝙧 𝙬𝙖𝙮 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙫𝙞𝙤𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙭.

The forbiddances of their connection mixed with such intense chemistry was so explosive!!  Their instant attraction, the lack of restraint of desire beyond the animosity at every encounter.  Their constant bickering and merciless  banter made for such an emotionally, intense storyline! 

So excited for Kanen’s  story next with yet another outsider!
