Control by Victoria Woods
5.0
Control is book #3 in the Power series, and it also a start to a new duet, Jai and Claire's story. You don't need to read Shyam and Ameila's duet, but I highly recommend that you do. It will enhance your reading experience. Control is an age gap and mafia romance. I got a glimpse to Jai's from the first book two books. And I was so happy when I heard that that Victoria Woods, decided to write a duet focusing around his character. Just like the first two books, I devoured Control in one sitting. Jai can be seen as a playboy/ladies man, but he definitely helped out a lot in Shyam and Ameila's relationship. He cares deeply for his family, and you'll see that even more in this book. Reading the scenes with his niece and nephew was definitely one of my highlights. As the plot unravelled, I really like how Jai's character developed.
Oh my goodness! I cannot explain how steamy this book is! What happens when a young ballerina teacher meets a tech wiz mafia/crime boss? Claire and Jai are completely opposite to each other. Yet, the chemistry and sexual tension between these two is like dynamite, you only need a small spark for it to ignite. Their encounters are heated and explosive, way, way too hot to handle. At first neither of them wants to relinquish the control to one another. Yet, eventually Jai and Claire give in, they can't resist the pull to one another. When are together they spiral out of control.
I really like Claire's character, she has a passion for dancing and loves teaching her students. She may be seen being timid and shy, but she's smart and intelligent; she can easily read Jai. But she has certain fears, she's scared to let anyone in. She's more of a loner, but that changed when she met Jai and his family. And the plot twist!!! Wow! Talk about it being a small world?! Indirectly Jai and Claire are connected to each other, in more ways than they realized. I was so shocked! I mean, I knew Claire was hiding something or more like hiding from someone. But, never in a million years would I have thought that would be it! The cliffhanger..!! Victoria! Please tell me that we are going to get book #4 soon. Overall, a fantastic book. I really need book #4! I have to know what's going to happen next!
