Holy WOW. I was not ready for this book. I loved it and everything about it. As it always is with these dark romances, read the TW/CW.
What I loved?
🖤 Ryan - this FMC is a total baddie that can hold her own but was not afraid to become a puddle for Gunner. I loved how she handled people who underestimated her and all of her shades of grey. Top 3 FMC right here
🖤 Gunner - 👀 Em, he is just a short circuit waiting to happen.
🖤 The side characters 😂 Nikki and Dex were fantastic. Dex is hilarious and Nikki was such a supportive and funny friend
🖤 The banter and tension - I could live on those 2 things alone, it was top tier 😮💨
🖤 THE PLOT TWIST - WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. HECK I knew something was amiss but for some reason I just didn’t put 2 and 2 together
🖤 The spice - There was only 2-3 major scenes, yet they were 😳🥵🫠

Ryan, a girl found on the street by a cartel heir, turns into the top enforcer of the organization an absolutely take no shit type of character which I LOVE! Then we have Gunner the Sgt. at Arms for a local Arizona MC. Gunner underestimates Ryan at their first meeting. However, Gunner soon finds out that she's more than he's bargained for but maybe that's a good thing. The thing about this book is not only is it twist and turn-y but it's also funny. In my opinion if you've seen the show Burn Notice you'll love this book as much as I did.
