Book Review: 'Til Death Volume 2 by Bella Jewel

Marcus and Katia's story is not all love and hearts and flowers. It is toxic and chaotic and really not good for anyone. It was like watching two trains hurdling down the same tract towards each other. You know exactly what is about to happen, know the destruction that will follow. You dread watching it unfold yet there is no way for you to tear your gaze away from the inevitable wreckage. That is what reading these two was like for me.

In Volume One, Marcus was the monster. He used Katia for his own personal gain and while he may have done some things out of love, it didn't matter. In Volume Two, Katia becomes the monster. An emotionless, empty monster. We see a bit of how Marcus struggled after they split, and struggled is an understatement, yet I couldn't bring myself to sympathize with the jerk. Everything that happened was his own doing and he completely broke Katia. He is responsible for what she has become. Can they repair what might have been love or are they better off cutting ties and finally moving on?

Book Review: 'Til Death by Bella Jewel

Katia fell in love with a jerk. They met. They hooked up for a few months. They married. But she was just a business deal to Marcus. A way for him to keep his family business. He doesn't lover. He has no intention of ever loving her. He just needs her as his wife for the next two years. What will happen if she ever finds out the truth?

So this is the first Bella Jewel book that I have read and i really enjoyed it. A lot. It is told from dual point of views while also going back and forth between the present and past. You would think that all of that jumping around would be a bit confusing but I thought it flowed very nicely. I found myself curious about the back story of how Katia and Marcus came to be and then waiting on the edge of my seat to see what happens when she finds out the truth. And it is inevitable that she will find out, so you spend the majority of the book anticipating the big blow out.
