What always surprises me about this series, is how the author manages to add such humor to a pretty dark storyline. I love that the female characters are sassy rather than meek doormats. Even the humor with the male leads are hilarious. None of that disputes that this is mafia/mob/bratva based romance so there are criminal aspects.

My only complaint was about how things progressed/escalated with Spider but I think that will change in the next book.
Riley is on her way to her sister's wedding (Sloane from the second book) when a Bratva head kidnaps her. Malek thinks she's responsible for his brother's death. This has been a great series, well-written with lots of twists and reluctant alliances. Riley and Malek are a lot of fun together despite the drama.
4.5 Stars

Not my favorite of the series but still really freaking good.

Loved the twist and the mc's.

Super steamy and tons of suspense and action.

I am so going to be stalking this author.
Her FMC's are awesome. Snarky, Strong and Independent.

Probably the least fav in the series. Too many triggers here.
Riley is just as insufferable as Sloan but even more stupid.
