SUMMARY: (SPOILER WARNING)

Brooklyn has been on her own since her dad died as a kid. Since then she’s learned that people are awful (especially men) and that she loves killing.

She finds herself picked up off the streets and thrown into a death game at the Royaume D’élite club. She is both thrilled to hone her skills and unsure of what’s to come next.

Niall hates the Royaume D’élite club, but he finds himself there with Kyan scoping out how to take it down. When Niall sees Brooklyn fighting while he’s there, he is enthralled with her. He decides to buy her and see if he can turn her into his killer sidekick.

But as Niall and his current captive, Mateo, get to know Brooklyn, they both see a kindred spirit in her — a violence that speaks to both of theirs.

REVIEW:

This. Was. Awesome. Gah! I loved it so much.

Brooklyn is my favorite. I knew I would love her being front and center after meeting her in The Harlequin Crew series, and I was right. She is that special brand of quirky lovable psycho and there were so many laugh out loud moments just from her inner thoughts and the things that came out of her mouth.

I also loved her inner strength. No matter what crazy shit she’s facing, she has a strength to her that I admire greatly.

Niall is my second favorite. He is Kyan’s uncle (from Brutal Boys of Everlake Prep). I love him because he’s like the male version of Brooklyn. They are so in sync and I adore their dynamic.

I also love that we learn more about him and what makes his character tick.

And I loved the crossover scenes with the things happening in the Brutal Boys series. So cool.

I did like Mateo a lot, but he is definitely the more controlled of the three. He has a darkness in him that speaks to the other two, but in a different kind of way.

I am curious how Niall and Mateo will come to a truce. Obviously them teaming up to help save Brooklyn was the first step. But I’m so excited to see how it progresses!

Overall I am absolutely loving this duet. Caroline and Susanne never seem to let me down. They are phenomenal writers and this series is no different. Gonna jump right into the next one to see what happens with these three crazy lovable psychos!

What the hell did I just read? The Death Club is book 1 in the Sneaky Sisters newest series. We originally met Niall in their Brutal Boys of Everlake Prep. As soon as his character was introduced I knew I needed more of him. He is a total insane psycho and I am here for it! I have yet to find a story written by these two amazing authors, that I did not instantly fall in love with. Niall is one funny crazy SOB, Mateo is a little standoffish but I’m betting by the next book he will come out of his shell more and Brooklyn is a tough bitch to deal with those 2 crazy ass men! Of course we were left with a cliffhanger! I can’t wait to see what happens next in Society of Psychos! Definitely recommend this book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hooked on every page and literally ate the book in a day to make it to the end. Love all these characters! Can’t wait for book 2. By the way the audible narration is fantastic!!

This is the first time I've ever read a book by these authors so I didn't know what to expect. But, holy gurl, reading this book kinda blew my mind. LIKE OMG?! It was such a thrilling and exciting journey reading about these three psychos. Like seriously, this book is totally f**ked up and twisted, but I love it so much. To be honest, I hate menage trope, but I decided to give this book a try because I was extremely intrigued by the blurb. N u know what? It's absolutely worth it! They're are so hot and the sexual tensions are just *chef kiss*. Overall, I enjoyed this book so much and I'm extremely excited for book two! Can't wait to read more about them! I think Caroline and Susanne have done an amazing job in delivering this story and won my heart. I highly recommend everyone to read this book, especially if you're a fan of dark and twisted captive romance.
