Nest of Thieves gives you the possessive alpha males and badass FMCs that you need in a story. Jo is confident and knows her worth. She doesn’t need anyone to look out for her, she has her own back. She also has the most character growth and as she begins to trust the guys she lets her vulnerable side show. 

Mac, Lark and Vette and possessive and dominant and really just the alpha alphaholes you want in a story like this. They each have their own flaws but they work so hard to be better for Jo. 

The book isn’t super dark but carries darker elements that build the excitement. I definitely enjoyed reading and am looking forward to reading more Rory Miles.

This started out so well and then just plateaued for the second half of the book, basically. I think that as soon as Jo moved in with them, all the momentum went right out the window. Their banter was great. The way Jo showed up as such a badass was amazing. By the end of the book it felt like she wasn't that tough anymore and I didn't feel very fulfilled by her "winning" in the end. The relationships with the men felt forced and somewhat off. I appreciate the author trying to add in diversity with the male characters but the spanglish came off forced and Riku/Lark's asian heritage felt like an afterthought. I think this book had the fittings to be SO great, but it suffered from being too long and lacking plot progression that started off really well. Reverse harems also have such a difficult time allowing you to truly get invested in each individual relationship. I wasn't able to feel depth there. Also, Jo kept doing seemingly dumb mistakes. I also feel like it was never explained fully how these guys were always able to find her...was it Lark? I mean they said they could smell her, but like that doesn't really say much. Sigh. It was okay. I'll definitely read more from this author int he future.

4.8 stars.
I am so glad I gave this author another chance after DNFing one of her other books.
This was fantastic.
I loved the banter and the smut and the fact that the FMC is a total badass.
Vette! Oh my god…when he calls her ‘mami’? So hot!
I love that hes sort of the leader of the group and he makes sure that she’s fed and happy and has an outlet whenever she needs one.

Lark..OH. My! He is so sweet and freaky! I loved the voyeuristic aspect of his love for her. Plus the ‘snaps’
