I don't know how B.B. reid does it but she knows how to write an H a##hole that you can't put down... even when you know that what you are reading is a bit twisted and disturbed.. not for everyone but if you enjoy a bit of darkness in your stories check this one out

Are you fucking kidding me? Mian is a damn snake. A fucking snake ass. Angel is literally keeping her safe and alive yet she just goes and—I can’t even believe this. Mian doesn’t deserve Angel.
#AngelDeservesBetter
It’s actually unbelievable what she did. Like she should be fucking grateful, she’d honestly be dead without Angel. She and her son would’ve starved without Angel’s interference, or murdered too. People want Mian dead.
Angel was literally her saviour. And then she goes and fucks him over.
Ungrateful cunt. Like, I get that she’s 19, she sure ass hell acts like a teenager with that spoiled and bratty attitude.
And then the part where they mention her potentially being a bad mother... well, they aren't wrong. You find her fighting constantly, risking her son’s life by doing so. I think the author was trying to go for a “strong” lead, but every time she fights against Angel, it basically risks her son because she thought at the time that Angel was dangerous, and so was Lucas and Z, but she fights them all. Basically risking her son’s well-being because one, she doesn’t even know where they were keeping Caylen, and two, thinks they would hurt him and her. So I have no idea why she was trying to fight Angel and his crew about everything, it was kind of stupid when they had her son at their disposal.
Mian-fucking-Ross. Horrible heroine. Hate her. Honestly, I think she should’ve aborted or given Caylen to be adopted. She was in no condition to be a mother. Had no support system. Had limited amounts of money. Had an unstable job. Don’t get me wrong, I support teen pregnancy, but she was in no condition to raise a child. To give your child a better life, you need to think about what you have, what they deserve, and think. I once read a book where this woman gave birth to the child of a rapist, (as in the mother was raped) and the mother resented the child and what it represented. Yet the mother raised the child anyways. It kind of reminded me of this story, yet completely different.
And once again I state: #AngelDeservesBetter

Why did it take me so long to read this book? This love story had suspense, lust, angst, and passion. From amazing secondary characters to beautifully plotted backstories, this book had it all! Our hero, Angel, is such a heartthrob. I loved his aggressiveness and take-no-crap attitude. I loved his passion and desire for our heroine Mian. He's the kind of hero that I love because even though he's a boss, he's not heartless. He feels and loves. He is everything.
And Mian was a joy to read as well. Her back story is not pretty, and the crap that she goes through in this book is not quite dark, yet is definitely not fair. She's a badass mama and because of that, she earns high marks from me. I wish we could have seen more of her interactions between her and her baby, however because of the plotlines surrounding that it wasn't quite possible. What we got instead was fierce determination, her spunkiness, and her vengeful lust for Angel.
I absolutely love, love, loved them and I'm about to dive into book 2 right now because I just can't wait.

I have read books by B. B. Reid and didn't like at all. I didn't finish them. I picked this one because I was bored and thank god I did. This is probably the best book by her. The mob she created, the story and twists made me read The Bandit in 6 hours. I couldn't put it down. I totally recommend to those who loves a dark story with romance and a cold but passionate male character.
