Wow! This book was intense. Seeing Rose ine the Stoneview Trilogy did not have me read for this book. This is a standalone duet. This book had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what will happen. It does end in a cliffhanger that makes you want book two now.

Forever crushing on Rose.

Iโ€™m not one to pick up a book with FF but how could I resist Roseโ€™s story.

This was so good and intense af. This is by a new arthur for me and it won't be my last. The story had me hooked from the prologue and I was constantly at the edge of my seat, dying to find out what will happen next. Rose, raised to live the life as part of Cosa Nostra. Abused, tortured and trained to be a weapon and to be the wife of her abusive foster father. When she escapes to freedom she ends up being kidnapped by the Bratva to be used for revenge for the next sixteen month's before she is found. I don't want to say anymore and give things away you'll just have to read it, but it does end on a cliffhanger, so we'll have to wait and see what happens next. I could not put this one down, there was always something happening.

This is a dark polyamorous MM, NF, FF, MMFF with hot af spicy scenes

Do read authors TWs before starting this one as it deals with some heavy stuff where kinky times are concerned and might not be everyone's cup of tea. But for Dark Polyamorous romance lovers this one's going to be a definite treat. ๐Ÿ˜‰

After reading Queen of Broken Hearts novella I was running to start this one. Even though Rose and Rachel made me go crazy in that one, yet I was wanting to see what would happen next. Would Rachel's one sided love reach fruition especially when the object of her desire is a Playgirl to the extreme.

So I have to say when I started this one, I was not ready for the intensity and rollercoaster ride this one took me on.
I mean FREAKING SHT. There was just so much going on.

Rose is back after two years when she was kidnapped on the very day that she was to run away with Rachel.
Now Rose is back and nobody knows why she was taken or what happened or how did she ever escape.

There are secrets piling up, sure but for Rose, the people that were always the centre of her world have their lives changed as even though, Rose is the same girl who can sleep with anyone if she likes them at one glance, yet she's also the same possessive one who will do anything for Rachel.

The biggest shocker comes when Sam traps her and makes her be complaint to his plan to find the Volkov brothers, whose whereabouts no body can find out.
Why is Sam doing this and especially when he has a man of his own, Lik, yet why does Rose hate him and yearn for him at the same time?!

Lik was hot and his ๐Ÿ”ฅtimes with Sam had me ๐Ÿฅต for the way they are with each other. Even though all characters have their own flaws yet Sam has to be my least favourite one. I just didn't like the way he would treat others.
Lik was a sweetie and a easy going cool dude.
I have to say though, the buildup to the attraction he feels for Rose was so beyond hot as he's a man who's never found a woman attractive.๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ

Rose is a mad house and a maniac obsessed over Rachel but what I loved was the fact that now she's getting a taste of her own medicine with not getting Rachel's attention and having to be her dirty secret when she treated Rachel the same way in the past.

Yet I really can't blame Rose for the way she is especially after reading about her past I had tears in my eyes and wanting to save the little girl in the past for when she was wronged.
Rose definitely made me feel emotional for her and I might not agree with her actions at times yet that girl is a softie somewhere inside.

Rachel, man, poor thing. It felt like she's always in some kinda prison one time or another but I can't wait to see her get justice this time for the burden she carries and doesn't have to.

This one has tons of Kinky and outright filthy times loaded with so much spice that I would say read carefully or you might get burned with all the heat. (Kidding, although the spice is freaking hotttt โ™จ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฅต)

THEN COMES THAT ENDING.๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ .... WHAT THE.... I knew that there was something not adding up... BUT THAT... Yep, straight going for the next book. Can't wait to start it after reading this crazy shocking twister. Also, hoping to find more times filled with utmost debauchery and ๐—Œ๐–พ๐—‘iness in the next one.๐Ÿ˜‰๐ŸŒถ๏ธ

When I started this book I did feel a bit disoriented because I have not read the previous series set in this world. It did say you can read it if you havenโ€™t read them but I felt it would have been better if I had read them first. It made it a bit hard for me to get into the book.

It took me a while to feel connected to these characters- except for Lik, I loved him right away- I honestly didnโ€™t find Sam and Rose all that likeable, but as the story went on I did get more invested in them and their story.

I also enjoyed the spicy scenes in this book. They definitely kept me motivated to keep reading!

Overall this was a decent read and by the end I did feel that I will read the next book in the duet but in my opinion I would recommend reading the other books in this world first.

So, I haven't read the other books that also take place in Stoneview but I really enjoyed this book, and I will be picking up the other series soon. That being said this can definitely be read as a standalone. This book pulled me in from the prologue and I just couldn't put it down. The characters are all amazing and you can't help falling for each and every one of them. I can't wait for the next part of the duet.

i'll tell you what, if anyone is going to get me to read a mmff romance, it's going to be ms lola king. i am convinced i will read anything this woman writes.

after meeting rose in jake and jamie's trilogy, i was so excited to get to her story. and lola delivered!! the power dynamic between all the characters was so intriguing, the plot was fast paced but not rushed, and this one is freaking steamy asf!

and ofc it does leave on a bit of a cliffhanger which makes me so excited to get to book 2!

You know those addictive books well this is another one of them
Rose is a super badass character reminds me of one of my favorites Roxy from Den of Vipers
This book is a perfect blend of plot and spice what I love most about books is this
Represents the characters well as the more focused Rose
I liked them all but she was my favorite of them all.
It got a little dragged out in the middle of the book but I didn't get tired of it, I just loved reading more and more of it
I was attracted to him when I read Blurb(synopsis) for the first time, this is the first book I've read by Lola King and oh my god I haven't met her before
The perfection of writing to make us feel in the place of the book are few authors who do it with this perfection
I can only say that I'm looking forward to more
