TAINT (The Snap Trilogy Book 2) Kindle Edition

Taint is so emotionally charged and twisted that after the first read, I had to immediately read this story again to be sure what I thought I read really happened!

Taint resumes beautifully where Snap (book 1) ended. The characters have evolved a great deal in this story. The drama escalated from five to a thousand on page 1. What happened to Phil? Will he get away with the beating he gave Hazel? The four horsemen, Hazel, Bobby, Erick, Cady's friendship is tested in ways they couldn't have imagined. Will their friendship survive the biggest test of all? The emotional upheaval will gut you.

The drug Snap is the root of all evil in Taint. Phil is a walking time bomb in his desire to monopolize the market. Cash is floundering all over the place attempting to do the right thing. Hazel is in a haze (literally) thanks to Cash and Phil. Bobby is the glue holding the entire crew together. No pressure, right? Bobby will do things in this installment no friend should have to do. Ever. Who in the haystacks gave Dale the green light to be the boss? I'm not sure how I feel about his infiltration of the four horsemen yet.

Are you expecting an HEA of any sort in this installment? Don't. Are you expecting feel good, happy, and syrupy bonding among the four horsemen? Don't. If you're expecting raw, gritty, and real emotions, issues, and tests of friendship, then jack friggin' pot! This installment is definitely a Jack Daniels read! The cliffhanger warrants at least three shots of booze alone! Talk about wild and crazy drama! It's like watching a tornado reek havoc in slow motion....the highest adrenaline rush times a million!

Five gazillion stars for this phenomenal read! I'm cheering (and secretly leaving sacrifices for the book gods) for Cash hoping he will come through like a wrecking ball for Hazel in Mend! He seemed a bit subdued in Taint. No worries though. It's been proven most wars are won by not reacting. I'm pumped to get my hands on the conclusion, Mend!

Taint is the second book in the Snap trilogy....I loved Snap so I knew the bar was set high on what I expected for the next installment...and not only did Tara deliver but she exceeded all my expectations of what I anticipated would happen.....Not only do you get more insight into the twisted and dangerous mind of Phil and what he is willing to do and put Hazel though to get what he believes he deserves but you also get introduced to Cash's friends Joseph and Dale and how they fit into all of this, Bobby plays a bigger role in this installment and you get another insight into Cash....where that will lead we will have to wait for Mend the final installment in the Snap trilogy to find out...will Hazel and Cash get their happily ever after? Your guess is as good as mine but I can't wait to find out.......

Even though this story is dark and troubled, you can't help but to have hope throughout the Entire story!!!
You are taken on a ride that will leave you with whiplash for sure.
There are so many players in this story that you are not sure who you can trust and who may turn their back on you at the flip of a switch.
Hazel has been through Hell and back and she's not sure she has what it takes to put it all back together again. Betrayal Lies and Deceit are extremely high in this nail biting Psychological thriller that will gut your soul and give you enough hope that it will be repaired enough to survive till the end.
Phil......... I can't even....... UGH!!!!!
Cash, oh my Broken Cash. he isn't as innocent as he seems but since you have read Snap you probably know that by now!!! He will stop at nothing to help save Hazel, even from herself.
There are so many characters in this book and they ALL have a significant role that make Taint the phenomenal read that it is.
Tara Dawn makes you Feel what the characters feel. the hurt, pain and grief these characters feel are devastating to witness and you will find yourself sucked into the hell that Is Taint!!!

OMG...TARA YOU ARE KILLING ME WITH THE CLIFFHANGERS!! What a stopping place!! Gggrrrr...

Seriously the characters are addicting...I NEED MORE!! *takes a deep breath*
OK...my emotions are all over the place with this storyline with every page I turn, I am more and more invested not only with Hazel but her friends (Cady, Erick, Bobby and WOW Cash)! I especially LOVE Hazel and Cady's 'bestieship' it reminds me a little of my bestfriend of 30+ years (or 100 years hehehe) I don't know what I would do without her.

This trilogy is a definite...MUST HAVE!! If you like sit-on-the-edge-of-your-seat, nerve wracking intrigue...IT IS HERE!!!

Tara Dawn does it again in the second book in this series. From the first page to the last she keeps you on the edge of your seat every single second. All of our favorite characters are back and then some. After reading this book I am left boggled, I can't believe what I read and I am in desperate need of more. Perfectly flawless storyline. This book picks up right where Snap left off and takes you on the continued journey of Hazel and the rest of the crew. She is such a strong woman but how much can one person take? I still can't figure out what just happened!! This is a MUST read. If I could give it more stars I would. I love a book that gives nothing away and this is exactly what Tara does with this book. Fantastic!
