Paige isn’t the type of person to sit back and do nothing when her brother dies under suspicious conditions. Especially when she finds out that the situation involves her ex-step-father the notorious drug lord. Taking the situation in her hands she places herself undercover to find out who killed her brother and to avenge his death. After choosing to protect Paige over his own family, Damien has placed a bulls-eye on himself from both Kramer and Paine families. Will both be able to stay alive to keep the relationship going? This book offers more than just romance and suspense. It has the reader on the edge of his or her seat wondering what curve-ball comes next or what tidbit of information will be used against someone. This is a page turner and will keep your attention throughout.
Paige is devastated when she gets the news her brother, Greg is dead. They are saying it was an accidental overdose of heroin. Paige knows this is wrong since Greg was an undercover cop. Paige knows her brother didn’t do drugs but wanted to bring down two of the biggest crime families so she thinks they had something to do with his death. Paige has a connection to the Paine family – her stepfather Jackson is the head of one of those families. Paige runs into so much trouble so Jackson (not wanting Paige to get hurt) asks his son Damien to protect her. Sparks fly between these two but goodness does Paige need Damien. She has no filter nor forthought into what she is doing. That was my only problem with her. I enjoyed the interaction between Paige and Damien but I cringed when Paige went off on her own. This has a great story line with lots of action and a wonderful story. Just wish Paige would have been a bit more street savvy.

This fantastic story features Damien and Paige. The separate twists and turns their lives took from birth was insane. Being a mobsters reluctant son was hard for Damien. Throughout the story I never knew who was going to shoot who. Family loyalty was huge for Damien‘s father but when it came down to it, it was sketchy at best.
The action and suspense were awesome. The steam factor was off the charts! What a ride! The story keeps you on the edge of your seat. I’m very curious to see how their life turn out a few years down the road. Deep thought and amazing plotting went in to this fabulous read. I loved it!
This book was very good. It has everything you need to see in it to even qualify. Loved the action, the drama and just everything. This book covers so many subjects and it works together for. This is one of the best books I have read so far.

4.5 House of Paine stars
Firstly, I’d like to thank Kylie and Booksprout for my advanced copy of House of Paine and I willingly leave my honest review.
Secondly, I’d like to say when I first started back with reading through my kindle, Kylie was one of the first authors I ever read. I bought the House of Paine when it was still two books. I only ever managed to read the first book so all these years I have never known the outcome……so when I saw this ARC available I jumped on it, so I could have some sort of conclusion! Not sure why I put it off for so long because it was a really good book!
Paige loses her brother Greg and in her quest for revenge, she is pitted against two powerful Mob families, the Kramers and the Paines. Unbeknownst to most people, Paige is Jackson Paine’s stepdaughter and as much as he can he tries to protect her. However, Paige is a loose cannon and tries to do everything herself which just causes a kaleidoscope of more problems. Damien is intrigued by her and eventually the two start an intimate relationship. Some twists and turns I didn’t see coming and some secrets are exposed that were unexpected
Suffice to say I enjoyed it and would recommend Kylie and this book to anyone who wants a good and steamy read
After the Death of her brother Greg, Paige, a medical student, swears her revenge on the ones responsible. What she didn’t count on was the dangers that she would ha e to reach her way around or Damien. Can she bring down the ones responsible and still fall in love?
I love a good gritty dark romance. I don’t read many but I will be glad to add this to my collection
This book is an emotional roller coaster from beginning to end! It’s a mafia romance and so, as to be expected there is some violence, fear, suspense, questionable consent and drama along with the love and romance. It’s a face paced book so be prepared to sit there with your Kindle in hand for quite some time as if you are like me, you shall find it incredibly difficult to put this book down until you have finished it! There is a great plot with great sub plots and wonderfully developed characters, it’s an all round well thought out and well written book.

A dark, gritty romance fueled by passion and revenge. The story is chock full of dangerous secrets, lies, jealousy, suspense, and ties that bind. Damien is sexy, the quintessential bad boy and Paige the feisty woman bent on revenge. This book takes you on a thrilling ride that has you unable to put it down. No cliffhanger. Pick up this great read…you will be glad you did!
