After reading “Just For You, Sir (Doms of Decadence, #1),” I had to read this story in order to find out what happens to Cady! She seems so tough and streetwise, yet she has a soft spot for and tries to help Jacey. In this volume, we see just how alone and lonely she really is. Of course, she’s gotten to this state by punishing herself over her friend’s death, for which she blames herself. Luckily, she realizes that she is in over her head in regards to a situation with a stalker, and although she doesn’t tell anyone about it, at least she attempts to get herself out of the situation: by taking a job at Black-Grey Investigations.
Of course, things only get more interesting from there, as the Dom and the spitfire with secrets go head to head, repeatedly. Lots of spicy love scenes (with some light BDSM included), intrigue and excitement, and finally a sweet resolution.
The interplay between the characters is delightful. I loved Cady, and even Hunter despite his gruffness and overprotectiveness towards her. I am looking forward to reading more about them and others in their group in future installments of the series.
After the death of her partner and best friend, Cady leaves her home town and shuns everything she’s ever known choosing to do her personal penance by giving everything up and living on the streets. She’s determined to keep everyone out and never care about anyone again. But when another young homeless woman befriends Cady, she can’t help but to try and protect her from her psychotic and controlling ex. She takes a one night job as part of security team to act as a decoy to keep her friend safe. She never thought it would turn in to more.
Hunter Black didn’t plan on developing feelings for the homeless woman they hired to fill in as a decoy. But he can’t get her off of his mind. He offers her a job on their team to get her off the streets, but his urge to protect her doesn’t really let her do much other than sit in the office. When she’s injured on the job, Hunter decides he’s the one taking care of her . . . and that’s when sparks truly start to fly.
Will Cady’s omission about her past, however, come between them as they explore their new relationship? And, will Hunter’s obsession with finding his sister’s murderer be the thing that tears them apart forever?
I enjoyed Cady and Hunter’s story. I can understand how they were both destroyed by the loss of loved ones, although I’m not quite sure I understand why Cady ended up on the streets . . . It was a fun dynamic watching her learn to submit to Hunter while also getting him to understand that she is more than capable of handling herself while on a case for Black-Gray Securities. It was clear they would be a fantastic couple and help fill the void they were each missing f hey could only move on from their pasts.
This book has plenty of super sexy moments as well as a suspenseful plot. If found it to be an enjoyable read and great follow up to book one of the series as the story flowed nicely from Just For You, Sir to Forever Yours, Sir. 4 stars.
I definitely enjoyed this book more than book one. I loved Cady’s sass and her attitude when we met her in bk 1 and was happy to see she got her own story. The writing seems to have improved so hoping bk 3 continues in this manner.
Hunter sees Cady and can’t get her out of his mind, and she’s the first woman that he’s been interested in since the death of his sister. Cady is thinking things about Hunter, but she doesn’t let anyone close since her friend died, and she blames herself.
After Cady get injured and Hunter jokes about her needing a spanking, things get hot between the two. Cady soon realises that Hunter is a Dom, and for the first time she feels her mind free. The panic doesn’t set in when Hunter tells her that he wants more with her and knows they have to trust each other, Cady wants to try to be what Hunter wants, but doesn’t know if she can let go of her past.
After Cady gets injured Hunter turn overly protective, but Cady isn’t having it. Hunter knows that he’s been pushing Cady away but with the break on his sister’s case he becomes distracted, When Cady gets injured he realises that she is more important but with Cady giving him an ultimatum, he’s worried he may be to late in giving her the one thing he ask of her his trust.
Although it can be read as a standalone, I enjoyed it more having the read the previous book.
