Stella is a tattoo artist, born with a silver spoon in her mouth and working to overcome the mistakes from her past. Tyler is a bookie with an axe to grind, set on blackmailing his way to revenge. Their chemistry is incendiary, even as their hatred for each other deepens.
This was a great book. I normally don't enjoy enemies to lovers but this was a brilliant exception.

Total waste of time. The plot and characters were poorly done. I was especially disappointed in the characters development. Nothing like the first two books. To add insult, there are political undertones that just pushed me over the edge. I read for enjoyment not political commentary! I finally had enough at around 25%. I got far enough along to say I truly tried to finish.
