OMG……..what a book. Completely captivated from start to finish and so many twists and turns to keep you entertained throughout. The main hero is so hot and I can’t wait to read more from this author.
Oh my what can I say about this book other than you need to read it mercy what a good story. I’ve read just about all of Ally’s book from the start and each and everytime she continues to surprise me with how much she continues to grow in her writing.
This book is about Seth who may be the youngest in the Cavalieri Della Morte men, but you won’t want to cross him. He’s the one you never want to get a visit from, so when he’s sent to collect a debt he is offered a girl as payment.
Leeann is a spunky doesn’t take crap from anyone kind of girl, but she has a soft spot for her brother who always seems to get into trouble with the wrong people which she bails him out of, but this time that won’t work as she’s been taken as payment for his debts and she doesn’t know what’s going to happen to herself.
I loved the plot line of this book. It was well written, engaging and kept me guessing. LeeAnn is a fighter, clearly, and Seth had definitely found his match in her. I had a difficult time connecting to Leeann though. Her whole character fell short for me, which is true of real life people too, so it didn’t take away from the story line (to me anyway).
My first book by this author and another great addition to the series. This is Seth’s story and it’s a quick, addictive read. Was hooked from the very first page.
Seth is younger than the other members of the CDM, but he’s a pretty ruthless and dangerous man. This was a shorter read than expected, and I thought parts of it were a bit rushed, where I wanted the scenes fleshed out more. But the dark and danger tones made up for it, and I liked the story line with Leann being taken as collateral for a debt owed. It was an intriguing read, and I only wish there was more!
3.5 stars
First time I’ve read this author and being introduced to so many is one of the things I have loved about this series. Unfortunately this book just didn’t quite reach the same heights as the others books for me. However in saying that, the storyline was very good, there were some twists that I didn’t see coming.
In fairness to Ally, Delinquent followed one of the best books in the series, which possibly leaves you looking for more.
Seth was still very young and a delinquent as such. He was a debt collector for Arthur and he always collected in one way or another. However this job should of been another simple pay day and it was anything but. Whilst everything was laid out nice and simple by Seth, he did collect, he was paid in blood but not in the usual form. He needed answers and he was about to be bombarded with them.
Seth is the youngest ‘Knight’ (I believe) to claim a seat at the infamous table of the Cavalieri Della Morte
Seth works as a collector. Collecting outstanding debts for Arthur. Debtors choice. Crimson or green?
Seth still has a lot of his humanity left. When he was young tragedy struck his life. He vowed at an early age he would avenge the creature who brought upon him the memories that would forever haunt his nights. Mentored by Lance Knight into the brotherhood. He has a deadly skill, devout dedication and yes, he is a bit of a rebel.
Leeann thought things were good. Yeah, there was the occasional blip in her world. But hey nothing is perfect.
Except it seems her value. She is the perfect answer to so many problems. Sadly they were not her problems. Until now.
I have to say I truly adored her spunk! Even with all the head bashing and finger groping she never backed down!
Seth truly has a heart and it seems to have been taken captive. The way Leanne fights him at every turn and the undercurrent of innocence in her touch only drives his need for her higher
This was a solid read with a serious twist in the story line that affects one of my favorite Cavalieri. For me, it did not have the darker undertones that some of the other story’s did. It still had lots of blood and guts and fun times with torture. It just (IMO) was more of a straight romance. I am not sure how to put it.
I did wish there was a bit more closure with regards to certain events and others I would have liked a bit more meat to the scene. But anyone who follows my reviews knows I am a bit greedy with my story lines.
Another wonderful addition to the Cavalieri family.
Another fantastic read by Ally Vance and another fantastic addition to the Cavalieri Della Morte series. Would absolutely recommend reading.
Seth Galahad, doesn’t follow rules except those of the Tabella. Sometimes he does bend them to suit. He will collect, whether that be in cash or blood. When another option comes his way, will he take it?
Leeann Mallory, has been caught up in her brothers debts. He gambled with her life and lost. Now she is being used as payment but she won’t go down without a fight. She’s fiesty, strong willed and determined to get away. Will Leeann escape with her life and her heart?
Ally Vance writes dark romance and Delinquent is no different. Definitely not for the faint hearted or squeamish. It’s suspenseful, packed with heated arguments and steamy moments. Told in dual POV (which I prefer), it’s a quick and easy read. The development of the story and the not knowing where it would go, made it hard to put down.
Delinquent is the newest captivatingly addictive addition to the Cavalieri della Morte series. With each new Cavalieri brother introduced in this series I’ve been drawn further into their world and enjoyed every dark and gritty moment.
From the first time Seth appeared in this series his mysterious persona intrigued me. Though the youngest of the Cavalieri Seth is reckless, lethal and thrived in the chaos of the job. When his newest mission was called in Seth soon realized things were not going to go as planned. Leann was such a feisty spitfire and I loved how she wasn’t afraid to go toe-to-toe with Seth. Even as their worlds were flipped upside down the chemistry and banter between these two kept me constantly craving more.
Full of suspense, action, secrets and lies Delinquent kept me constantly guessing until the end. I loved the twist their story took and after this amazing addition to the Cavalieri della Morte series I can’t wait to see who’s story’s next.
Delinquent by Ally Vance is book #9 in the Cavalieri Della Morte Series! I have loved this series so much, mostly because I’ve found so many new authors that otherwise I may not have had the opportunity to find. Ally is not one of those authors though, I have been obsessed with her work ever since I read Flower in the Dark, and as usual, she did NOT disappoint! Delinquent is part of the Cavalieri Della Morte Series but can be read as a standalone, told in dual POV.
“I’m the delinquent who doesn’t play by any rules, not even my own.”
Seth Galahad at 19 years old has been a collector for the Tabella Della Morte, another one of Arthur’s loyal knights for 4 years, ever since he walked into his home and found his mother murdered. Seth is sent in to collect when the men and women who borrow or barter with Arthur Calthorpe don’t pay up.
“Pay what you owe in cash or pay it in blood.”
When Seth makes his way to Club Wicked to collect a debt from his latest target, Caryn, he gets more then he bargained for. Caryn offering up an innocent woman to buy herself more time. Even though Seth knows he shouldn’t and that Arthur would be pissed, he can’t just leave the girl being used as a bartering chip there but he can’t let her go either, not until he finds out what she has to do with all this. So, trusting his gut, Seth takes her home with him.
“A simple job gone wrong has created ripples, which can’t now be undone.”
Leeann Mallory is caught in the middle of something she has nothing to do with. All because of her brother Arron’s gambling addiction, he chooses to play with his sister’s life… and loses. Now Mallory must depend on the same man that’s keeping her captive if she has any hope of surviving.
But Leanna turns from captive to co-conspirator pretty quickly. Leann’s defiance is enough to rival Seth’s and the more she fights him, the more drawn to each other they are and soon this ‘pretty girl’ nor Seth can deny the attraction that runs like a current between them.
“You are too much of a temptation. I took you from Caryn without thinking of the consequences, and I never intended to want you. But now I do, Leann, so I’m going to keep you. First though, I have to make them pay.”
That ending HOLY SHIT! I did NOT see that one coming! I can’t even say more than that without spoiling it but DAMNNN Ally way to drop a bomb!!!
Will Seth follow his oath and see this through to the end? Or will he change the rules up for the ‘pretty girl’ he’s falling for?
You’ll have to check out Delinquent to find out!
“Two wild and reckless souls coming together in passion and hunger, and I love every minute of it.”
Shew, secrets from the past are revealed and take this book to a whole other level, it’s a romance but it’s so much MORE too. Ally is an amazing writer and she pulled out all the stops in Delinquent!
Seth, this sexy bad boy is totally reckless and he for sure shows his age BUT he’s also a sweetheart, I mean come on, everyone loves a dirty-talkin’ bad boy! He’s gone through so much in his young life, including the murder of his mother that has shaped him into the man he is today.
Leann, she’s defiant and mouthy and she takes no shit from Seth, which only makes him want her more, I wasn’t sure if I was going to like her character at first but she won me over when she made her decision in the end… I’m trying sooo hard not to tell spoilers!
These two together, HOLY HOTNESS ya’ll! The steamy scenes were literally fogging up my Kindle! The chemistry between these two was fire and every single time they argued and bickered it was like throwing more gasoline on the flames!
I have enjoyed this series SO much, each installment has just gotten better and better. I know that once it finally is over I’m going to be in serious book hangover mode but I can’t wait all the same. I’m really hoping that the series concludes with Arthur’s story because even though at first I hated him, I have to admit there is a method to his madness and everything he does is for a reason.
Secrets, suspense, romance, and so many twist and turns you won’t know what’s coming next! I HIGHLY recommend Delinquent as well as the rest of the Cavalieri Series!
I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book.
I love the Cavalieri Della Morte world. It’s dark and gritty, and yet you just can’t put it down and walk away from it.
Seth is the newest Cavalieri that we meet. I think that he’s probably the youngest at this point as well. As far as I can tell, he’s only about 20. He’s disciplined, but he also has a huge impulsive streak. I know that it doesn’t seem like it should work that way, but it totally does. He’s still working up the ranks of the CDM, and right now he’s the one that Arthur sends out when he needs to have some debts collected. When he goes to collect a debt from Caryn, he ends up with Leeann.
I like Leeann. I thought that she had a very good heart. She’s a fierce little thing though. She’s not going to just sit down without a fight, she’s going to keep trying. That fire serves her quite well.
I think that she and Seth are going to be very good for each other.
Delinquent is the 9th book in the Cavalieri Della Morte series.
This is Seth Galahad and LeeAnn Mallory book.
When Seth is sent to collect a debt, he didn’t expect he’d be walking away with Sassy LeeAnn.
I love this series and can’t wait for the next one
WOW! This book was so twisted! It left me breathless and captivated. Seth and Leeann were amazing characters that pulled me in and held me captive until the end. This is a new author to me and I can’t wait to read more from her in the future!

Dark. Delicious. Dirty read that keeps building the Cavalieri Della Morte world. More than 5 if possible!!

The action, suspense, and steaminess combine to give you a heart racing story you will want to read again. It is not for the faint of heart – that’s for sure. The characters are strong and the chemistry is off the charts.
Seth and Leeann are a smoking hot couple. Apart, they are strong and tough. Together, they will make the pages ignite on your kindle. Their scenes of steaminess are mind blowing and will knock your panties off!! Such amazing writing by this author. I can’t wait to see what she holds in the future!!
OMG!!!! This book had me on edge from the beginning to the end. I just love Seth and Leeann story. It’s so deliciously killer edgy yhat I just love. It gave everything and I just love Bad boy killer Seth. A must read!!!!
This book grabbed me right away. I felt as if I was holding my breath the entire time trying to figure out what was going to happen. Between Seth’s reckless personality and LeeAnn’s determination to not just give in and do what everyone tells her to the chemistry was . The author has not just risen to but surpassed my expectations.
Delinquent (Cavalieri Della Morte series) by Ally Vance Seth is the youngest of the assassins. He was taken in by Arthur after he discovered his mother murdered in their home at 16. His job is collections. If they can not pay back the money then they will pay with blood. Leeann moved in with her brother even though he has a gambling habit. Now he has just told her he lost her gambling and she can’t believe it. Now being held captive she had just found out she is being used as partial payment for her captive’s debt. Seth has come to collect a debt but has discovered the client doesn’t have the money and they want to give him Leeann as partial payment. Seth has issues because of how his mother died and Leeann is still trying to wrap her mind around what her brother has done. Together they both try and deal with the situation plus their own personal demons. To compound the situation the sexual tension and attraction has been an added issue
As this story unfolded I was shocked at what was revealed. The story was definitely interesting and once again had me wanting to know more about Arthur. I do have to say that the bomb that was dropped was dropped and not fully put to bed. I truly hope at some point in will be. 4.5 stars for me
Ally is fast becoming one of my fave authors. Her books make you feel like you’re right there with the characters experiencing what they’re going through. What happens when you’re going to get what you’re owned but instead offered something you shouldn’t take? You need to read this book to find out.
Im absolutly in love with this series.
This was a quick read and cant wait to dive into the next one.
I really liked how they fell for eachother given the circumstances
Whoa this was exciting right to the end Seth Galahad is a lethal assassin with no remorse what so ever and loves his job to be always paid in blood that’s the only way pay up or die and god forbid I loved him his whole personality is intense and super sexy at the same time and when he runs into a little problem like Leeann who was a spitfire and I loved her for it his world turns upside down. So many secrets and so much danger this will keep you on the edge of your seat with the dark and dangerous Seth Galahad.
