Publisher's summary

Mr. Lavender

Is there anything better than a man in a well-cut suit? There isn’t, and Mr. Lavender is the best there’s ever been. He wears a suit like it’s skin and is impossible to kill. Many people have tried. He can shoot the eye out a needle and kill his way out of anything. He’s impervious to danger and unstoppable, but he’s got one very big weakness: Sage Bradley. Lavender’s willing to risk it all for love but can the world’s greatest assassin be reformed?

Sage Bradley

Let’s be honest for a moment. He’s beautiful, and his body makes people weak, but he’s got terrible luck when it comes to men. He’s on a mission to save LGBTQ teens, comfort the elderly, and help communities in Africa because his heart’s as beautiful as his face.

It’s that beautiful heart that keeps getting him in trouble, and a date with an elegant, enigmatic stranger leads to a wild night of passion and a thrilling mystery that could cost him his heart and his life. Can Sage heal and domesticate a lunatic assassin? Can Mr. Lavender save Sage and claim his heart before it's too late?

I’m very excited for this series

This book grabbed onto my heart and didn’t let go. Read this book! I guarantee it’s a great read I wish it was longer although I’m excited for what the author can create in this world. Catch me in the review comments on the next book by the author. The narrator was also great and I was never bothered by their voice I lived their voices especially Mr. Lavender’s. Overall one of my favorite reads

Another amazing story in the Lake Cliff series

I was skeptical to dive into this story, because I wasn’t sure how K. Sterling was going to top the love story that is Aiden and Lane.... I should’ve known she’d prove me wrong. The story about Lavendar and Sage is so well written (and narrated by Mr. Sterling), that I’ve fallen in love with these two ‘new’ characters of the series. Lavendar has a dark past, and Sage is the ying to his yang. I can’t wait to hear what happens next. I’m already excited for the next audiobook!

Really Well Done

Loved this book and love it just as much in audio. Mr. Sterling’s narrating skills are well done. Sage and Mr. Lavender are quite the pair who haven’t let a little thing like assassinations come between them. I can’t wait to hear about the next installment from Lake Cliff.

The perfect sociopath!

I loved Lavender and Sage!!!! The hitman falls for his mark ! I loved the irony of this whole story. and tne "full circle" effect. I liked watching Lavender fall deeper for his mark and trying to find out who and why they wanted him dead. I liked seeing Jeremy humanize and allow himself to feel love for Sage. I also enjoyed finding out the inner workings of a killer and his assistant. It wss quite interesting. Sage's parents should be grateful to Jeremy for saving their son, instead of being so sour toward him. I want more of this amazing story. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this story and am giving an honest review. The narrator's voice and expressions brought it to life.

Can't wait for the next mystery

I love how Sterling wraps complicated love story's within a new mystery to solve in each story. I adore the new additions of Sage and Lavender. Looking forward to more interactions between the two couples.

Full of SPICE!!

I absolutely love this author and the characters she creates. Lavender, Sage, and this dangerously sexy book.. have moved to the top of my “favorite Audiobooks” list!

Thank you K. for the new & dangerous fantasies you have introduced to me (like giving oral to my partner while he defends us from hitmen) ;)

Love this series!

I’ve been reading this series as it comes out, since it started. I really enjoy Scott Sterling’s narration and his voices for the characters. Don’t stop, please!
Lake Cliff just keeps getting better; not sure if it’s the water or some other hidden magnet, but it draws such cool a group of dark superheroes! MmmmMmm!

Awesome as always

I will forever love this series and K. Sterling. Mr. Sterling did a fabulous job (again) narrating this book. So funny and on point. Can't wait to listen to the next one. He really brings the characters to life.

Opposites Attract

Bad boy finds a soul. Lavender finds his forever in Sage. I loved the story and the way it was read. Mr. Sterling keeps getting better. Lavender comes alive. I can't wait for the next one.
