REVIEW: Beneath These Scars by Meghan March

Review

Lucas Titan is a man who gets what he wants, when he wants it, and allows no one to stand in his way, but he’s finally put in his place by a sassy, strong woman who refuses to allow the scars of her past to rule her present. She will not cower to Titan’s demands nor allow him to rule her life, but regardless of her disdain for him, her body wants his, and once they start, they just might be the only person for each other who can see beneath one another’s regrets, pain, and facade.

Holy Hell is Lucas Titan one arrogant bastard, but here’s the thing, he has EVERY right to be that way because he’s a self made man who looks only to himself to build and grow his empire. Lucas thrives on control, power, and dominance, but he realizes that he also likes the challenge that Yve brings into his life, and as they give into their physical attraction for one another, Lucas and Yve slowly start to realize beneath each other’s tough exteriors is someone who longs unconditional love and someone at his/her back because regardless of how much they abhor asking anyone for help, they truly deserve respect, care, and comfort from someone who understands their scars and sees past them.

Yve Santos has always been a bit of a mystery in Meghan March’s Beneath series. But readers could tell without a doubt that she’s lived through a horrific past that puts her on edge, exacerbates her fears, and keeps a voice in her head that brings her to her knees with worthlessness. But Lucas Titan brings out her sass and bossiness, allowing her to gain back some of the control that she lost at the hands of her ex husband.

I absolutely loved Beneath These Scars, and Lucas Titan is by far my favorite of Meghan March’s heroes because he is who he is and he doesn’t give a shit, at least externally, what others think about him. He may take drastic and underhanded steps to get what he wants, but that’s because he’s used to taking care of himself and fighting tooth and nail for what he wants. His scars come from his relationship with his deceased father and every step he has taken since his father’s death has been to prove that he’s a better man than his father ever was in terms of his intelligence and drive to succeed. I never hated Lucas in the other books in the series because at some level, I understood his game plan and I saw that there was more to him than his duplicitous ways.

I love the fact that readers get to witness Lucas and Yve’s story through both of their perspectives because it allows us to truly see underneath all of their actions and attitudes; their love to hate relationship is both comical and incredibly hot because their explosive feelings are translated into sexy and spiteful interactions,

making for one hell of a fun read.

I dare readers to be introduced to Lucas Titan in Beneath These Scars and not find his take charge attitude and demanding personality hot as hell and totally worth his dominating ways!
