Dena’s Thoughts
I really enjoyed this sequel! Picking up from the first book but with two different pov’s. Avani leaves Jake’s establishment to work for his brother Greyson. Greyson who is controlling and bossy can’t stand Avani. She’s always late, talks back and is under his skin.
I really like Greyson! Why is it always the stabby ones that get me? Anyway, I love the possessiveness, the “I don’t want her but I need her” and especially the “touch her and die”. SWOON. I appreciate assertiveness and bossiness.
Avani’s character really pulled at me. All the things she had been through and she’s still out here being a bad b. People like her have my admiration and I’m just in awe of them.
Once again I think this book (and duet) is a great introduction into dark romance. These were short, quick reads and I enjoyed them very much!
