My first book from this author and she got me hooked!
I love my books underground themed and dark. With romance of course just for fun and all that jazz.
But she really got me hooked with this book!
Kick-Ass heroine.
No doormat.
Underground story.
OTT possessive alpha.
May-Dec love-hate story.
I dig all those above mentioned. I crave that in a book. And the author has them in spades!
Suffice to say, she got a fan in me now and I’ll be sure to read more of her books!
This story grabs you from start to finish! Solomon runs the city and Riley is her own woman who just so happens to run a chop shop inside her garage in the back. She never thought that it would be a hazard until Solomon came in that night when she knew she had locked up. Now she is on his radar and he has one thing on his mind Riley. She is the woman he wants and he will stop at nothing to have her. There is so much drama going on in and around her life not to mention her mother who is a card shark amongst other things. Will she be able to keep Solomon at bay and her mother in check?
Great story
I like a dominant, possessive hero and I would have thought I would be head over heels in love with Solomon because he is certainly that. Unfortunately, he was also a little too heavy handed for me. He was constantly threatening the people in Riley’s life in order to force her into doing what he wanted. His force also led to some moments of dubious consent. Riley did eventually yield to him but only because she felt she had no other choice. She did end up desiring him at that moment and time, and afterwards, but I never felt a sizzle between them before that decision was made.
I wanted to love this story but I just never felt like I connected with the characters. I will read more from this author because I suspect she either has, or will eventually have, a hero that fits my criteria perfectly. Fingers crossed that I find him.
Solomon and riley! This was so freaking cute! I swear.. this author is one of the queens when it comes to mafia romance stories. Ruthless but calm, Solomon stays cool and collected but it always commanding which fits his role properly although he definitely lets riley off way too many times which seemed a tad bit out of the personality trait. But the way riley is.. I adore her headstrong self. Reckless and ditsy the way she is so unaware at times but very true to her character.
Katie and roman were great side characters for the two andt eh excerpt showing the start of her own story was suspenseful! Shank and cilia! Unknown characters until they leave you a very lasting impression when you least expect it. loved cilia even though it took til the end of the book for me to think that way about her. and shank! Oh man.. I actually really like this guy. That crazy stupid messed up buffoon.
Great characters. Love the plots and the back and forth between the main two. It was adorably sweet while keeping that violent suspenseful edge for the mafia aspect. Very enjoyable to read
Do you like dark reads?
Then this is the book for you.
The hero is dark, driven, dominant, doesn’t take no for an answer and gets off on the heroine standing up to him.
The heroine is feisty, loyal, a talented driver and mechanic and has more balls than a lot of men and defies the hero at every turn.
Her decisions aren’t always the wisest but she will own up to them….eventually. Really enjoyed this even though it’s not my usual read.
Ah Solomon so unapologetic about hunting Riley down and keeping her. Feisty Riley isn’t going to give up without a fight. She was quite creative in trying to get away from Solomon but no one can hide from the boss for too long. In my opinion Riley is a lucky woman!
