Ivy's Poison: A Dark Enemies to Lovers Romance Kindle Edition
Bors is hungry for revenge after one of his assignments spins out of control. Not only is he tortured by the man he was hired to murder, the president of a notorious and ruthless motorcycle club, but he’s also left in the care of the man’s deranged daughter, Ivy. And she knows exactly who is chained and at her mercy, the one she has wanted dead for three years.
During captivity, Bors witnesses what has become of Ivy’s life, and finds himself trapped between hatred and sorrow for his female tormentor.
“It only took one day for me to hate her more than my worst enemy.
Only took two to start planning her death.
And only three… to fall in love with her.”
Bors is an avenger. Especially Ivy’s.

About the author

Souls on fire…
Award winning and USA Today bestselling author, India R. Adams, writes stories of souls on fire. Whether India’s characters are feeling the heat from hell or the wings of grace, they are all transforming and want to share their journey with you. Her novels range from Dark MC, Paranormal, to Contemporary, but each story is either a path of destruction or a road to redemption.
Sometimes both.
So, if you want to read about voyages of the heart, the grit to rise from one’s knees, or the strength to break free of the binds of a spirit, then pick one of India’s stories because she believes damaged souls are worth saving and that there is nothing more beautiful than a soul on fire.
One of the best ways to follow India and stay up to date with her latest work is her newsletter.

Steam: hard to rate this one
Genre: Very Dark, Antihero, Enemies to Lovers, Biker, Assassin, Very Dark (yes It needs repeating)
Triggers: This book is one of the darker books I have read. It has all the triggers… ALL OF THEM! Do not take this warning lightly… this is like a few shades away from pitch black
*****
I have to thank jjs_bookobsession for recommending another book that is going to mess with my head for a long time.
This review will be brief because I do not want to give anything away. Just know this journey is sick, twisted, deranged, and dark and I couldn't put the book down once I started.
Throughout the book, I felt a little deranged myself. One minute, I'm giggling at some crazy banter/antics (like real crazy, not cute crazy) and the next my breath is taken away from the horror of the scene unfolding. While reading this book, I felt like a chameleon in a bowl of skittles: sick, angry, disgusted, confused, sad, and finally... happy-ish. And then there's the ending twist... WTF!!! Are you serious!
After reading Hostile Illusion and Hostile Saint, I knew when this author said dark, it would be dark. Thankfully, the author has a flashlight and guides us through the darkness, though I will tell you, there are parts of this book that will steal your breath, hurt your soul, and break your heart. You just never know what evil will come out of the darkness and this book is filled with evil. I personally loved Ivy and Bors’ story and being the twisted dark reader I am, I look forward to more from this author!
As for recommendations… if you can handle triggers and very very dark books… READ THIS ONE! This one is for all my dark romance lovers that like to walk on the edge. (I mean real DARK, not light gray wanna be dark).
- Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2022This novella is an intense, dark, gripping story that immediately had me absorbed in the story from the first page until the last. The raw emotions it invokes as you read are extremely powerful due to the way the story is written. Simply brilliant craftsmanship weaving words like this so intricately.
My heart rate elevated to an incredible level with the excitement in a certain situation and I honestly felt like I was there with the characters in the story. At other times, I found myself smiling so much from very simple yet fun actions. I also love Bors’ sense of humour, often very sarcastic but always humorous. Ivy is without doubt one of the strongest heroines I’ve read about and I adore her.
To see(and I mean that because as I said before you feel more than just acquainted with these characters) Bors grow and expand into unexplored territory is such a delight as is Ivy’s journey. Together their physical chemistry is like no other yet their understanding of each other is also just as deep and meaningful.
Another sensational story by this wonderful author who truly knows how to entertain her readers.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2020This was short action pack story that I love. I like the drama and the characters. Super enjoyed this story!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2019There's a reason India Adams is one of my all time favorite authors. Her writing touches the depth of my soul and her words resonate deep with their truth, power, and understanding. Adams is known for her stories that cover difficult but necessary topics of abuse, sexual assault and trauma, love, loss, human trafficking, and more.
The story of Bors and Ivy is true to form. Like every other book I've read by Adams, there's shocking and brutal aspects but also an underlying hope that imperfect and damaged people can find love and forgiveness, healing and security despite their faults and mistakes. Bors and Ivy are both twisted and scarred in ways that are hard to read at times but I loved the gritty realism of their lives and the perseverance of character they both display.
Their love story isn't planned but I found it perfectly imperfect. Bors and Ivy grow on you as you read and pretty soon they become as cherished and loved as a best friend. I wanted many times to reach into the book and prevent their suffering but that's a testament to excellent writing that I was so sucked into the story. This is a hard, brutal, and beautifully crafted read that should not be missed. I won't give away spoilers but suffice it to say that there's so much to love about this book and you'll be rooting for our lost souls the entire time from start to finish.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2019“IVY’S POISON” is phenomenal. Every novel I’ve had the opportunity to read by author India R. Adams has been phenomenal and “IVY’S POISON” continues that perfection in a way I did not expect. For nearly half the book, readers are given dark and psychological insights into what seem like the most twisted lives possible. Bors by definition is an assassin who develops an obsession on Ivy and then becomes the man deigned by his boss to end the life of Ivy’ father. And thus, begins the most amazing tale! Staying true to form, Adams’s writing is eloquent and descriptive, her characters are so well developed they become real, breathing entities, and the story as always illustrates as realistically as fiction can, the redemptive power of love. This is the first Cavalieri Della Morte (“IVY’S POISON” is actually book 5) novel for me, but it will not be the last! I have a growing number of titles to read by some equally remarkable authors. If you venture from time to time to darker romances, then I must HIGHLY recommend you start with “IVY’S POISON,” and you should purchase your copy today! Happy pages! 😉

4.0 out of 5 stars Tiene de todo
Hasta ahora es una de las historias que más me ha gustado de la saga Cavarieli. Y es que tiene de todo: humor, drama, acción, pasión.
Bors es un asesino pero en cuanto ve a Jade se convierte en un osito de peluche.
Y Ivy es una auténtica luchadora, junto con Beth han sobrevivido a un infierno.
Merece mucho la pena.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read
This was a great Assassin/MC dark romance read. Bors is a KA dark hero and poor Ivy has had to go through hell. Plenty of action and suspense with a fantastic ending. The extended epilogue was a fabulous extra.

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 Dark Avenger Stars.
This book was fantastic. I've never read this Author but I'm checking out her books based on this story. I loved her writing, It completely sucked me in from the beginning.
Deeply dark and disturbing at times but utterly gripping. The pace flowed perfectly and I found myself engrossed. It was suspenseful, shocking and exhilarating at the same time. The witty humour in the story cut through the Darkness I found myself chuckling a time or two.
Bors is pure Alpha, terrifying, dangerous yet undeniably a protector of the innocent. I absolutely loved him. To see the softer side of This big bad Assassin melted my heart, I laughed my ass off at times too. Bors is definitely a Man you want on your side, a true Dark Avenger.
Ivy is a complete badass. This chick is smart and she knows how to take care of herself. The brutal world she has been brought up in has taught her how to survive and protect what she loves at any cost. My heart hurt for her at times, life hasn't been easy for Ivy. She struggles through Hell but she has something worth fighting for so she does what she has to and that's why I admired her strength.
The chemistry between Ivy and Bors is fuxking hotttt. 🔥 Holy Sh!t!!!
The way that man Growls is sexy as fuxk.
Loved everything about this book and it's my first 5 Star read in the series.
Bors and Ivy are gonna be a hard act to follow that's for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars A dark delightful read
When Ivy hooks up with Bors, she never expects to see him again. She doesn’t even know his name, but she knows she’ll never forget him.
Years have gone by, and Bors hasn’t forgotten the little red head that rocked his world. While out planning to take out a mark, he crosses paths with her again. Only she has more surprises up her sleeve, and is even more trouble.
Is it fate that they’ve found each other again?
Loved these two characters! Their story was full of action. It had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dark romantic suspense
Ivy's Poison is book 5 of the Cavalieri Della Morte series. It can be read as a stand alone dark romantic suspense.
This book has strong themes of violence and some readers may find the sexual content offensive.
Bors is an assasin on a mission to take out the leader of a motorcycle gang. However he hadn't planned on falling for the leader's daughter. Brought up without a family, having no ties is ideal for his work. But everything changes when he finds he'll do anyhting to save the ones he loves.
Once again Adams' strong characters and well-written descriptions make this an engrossing story. Even if at times the content made me feel uncomfortable.
