Dena’s Thoughts
I was interested in this book because I love a good dark romance and fake marriage/marriage of convenience but what really caught me was that this is written by man. Typically romances written by men aren’t great, this was not the case with this book! I could not put this down and honestly as soon as I can I’ll be downloading more of his books!
Fumi is an equity partner at one of New York’s more successful firms. She had a sick father in which she is his main caretaker and to top it off, she just found out he has a hidden past and she has to find a way to come up with 5 million dollars! Cue Gabriel, a name partner at the same law firm who is diving into politics. Sadly, studies show he won’t win because he’s a single man but he’s going to fix that by hiring one… for 5 million dollars!
And if things can’t get more complication their law firm handles business for Club Venom, a less than legal club where everyone is anonymous and you can act upon your most devious fantasies.
Like I said I couldn’t put this book down! I loved the dominance, passiveness, the insulting words that came out of this man’s mouth… I don’t think there wasn’t a part of this book I didn’t like. Both MCs were great, the darkness, the kinks and even the drama! I will be reading more of Jagger Cole and suggest you do too!
