Growl is so precious. I read all of Cora Reilly’s books and love mafia romance, but avoided reading this story for some reason. I have no idea why I did that because I love it so much. Definitely worth the read.

Oh I like it very much. It was dark intense and suspenseful.

The story was captivating and interesting. Dark as were the other books in this series. But Bound by Vengeance was a story little different from others. Growl is a very broken men a monster who in his very dark and sad life did experience anything good. He was forced to be monster. And he like it. Didn't mind that people see him that way or that that they were more afraid of him than respect him. I find him ... cute. That's right I say cute. All this time he led a simple life alone with his dogs. So when he was forced to share his life with someone else, he didn't quite know how to behave. He never had to take into consideration others feelings. So there were some awkward situations that my eyes were cute.

But when it comes to Cara, I didn't like her very much. She might have been strong under this circumstances. But all the time she complained. She was very spoiled and thus very annoying.

I very much enjoyed reading this story and that's what it matter.

I'm still on the fence about this book; I'm not quite sure if it's my cup of tea.

The main couple left me feeling pretty confused, and the whole Stockholm syndrome angle didn't do them any favors. Cara's immaturity really grated on my nerves as well and I understand she’s only nineteen but God get a grip, and Growl didn't exactly win any points by taking advantage of her vulnerable state. Honestly, they might just be the worst couple in the whole series for me, and that's saying something, considering Aria and Luca's love story just grinds my gears.

Overall, I have to say, this book didn't quite hit the mark for me—I just couldn't get into it like the others, maybe the next book will scratch that itch.

So I liked Bandit and Coco and Growl with them.
Cara and Growl relationship was just boring but it was short book that had dogs and there is that.
