This is definitely a fast paced intriguing read. Jagger is the most feared man in Austin, earning that title with the violence and brutality of his world. Miri is a junkie in the midst of a withdrawal when she decides to go to the big man himself to get her fix. What she didn’t expect was the chemistry between her and the Boss. I loved that we get to see a softer side of Jagger and not just the harda$$ druglord. That he is in a sense remorseful when he sees the effects of the drugs he sells has on Miri. It calls to his soul and he feels the need to protect her. I really enjoyed the dynamics of this book and I will say it ends in a major cliffy. So, if you don’t like cliffhangers you need to wait until Jagger comes out as well.

Having never read a story that has one of its main components as drug use before, I was unsure what to expect. I have read books where drug use is mentioned and a tiny bit of detail, but nothing like this before. I am pleased to say that I coped and I loved!
An addict and a drug lord.
Miri is desperate for her next fix of heroin and with nowhere else to go, she runs to the most dangerous place that she could of – Boss.
Boss is the biggest drug lord in Austin, Texas. He is young and handsome. He is intimidating and terrifying. Having been in charge of the largest drug ring in Austin since his early twenties, Boss has realised that the only way to be ruthless is to be alone.
That is until a junkie shows up on his doorstep looking for her next fix….. Miri.
Miri turns Boss’ world upside down. The fiery red-head unlocks something deep in him, and he doesn’t want to let it go.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and loved reading the journey of these two characters.
“Junkie” is the first book in Heather C Leigh’s new ‘Broken Doll’ series.

This was a very hard book to read. It was very emotional and unjust at first but the more i read the more i fell in love with the characters and rooted for their happy ever after.
Character struggles were so realistic. Love how the big kingpin has a heart behind his black soul
