I wasn't convinced by the first book but this one was super entertaining! The sexual tension was also great. I feel like these books are like a good reality TV show - basically turn your brain off and enjoy the ride. I cant wait to find out what happens, and hopefully see what the script is with the stalker.

fmc almost caused me to dnf
I really wanted to like the fmc but she’s annoyingly stubborn. To the point that she just isn’t like able. Her moral compass is trash but she’s on her high horse looking down at everyone else.

This is a very intense game of trying to stay alive for a gang that she didn’t want to be in. For her men that she cares for she fights to live

LOVED IT!! This was such a great book, and so much happened! We continue from where book one left off, and AJ managed to get herself in a tricky situation with the crows and the saints. Now having to have a crow with her at all times, she has to go through a series of trials that could happen anytime and anyplace. During this time, while things are definitely getting heated between Grey, Rook, Corvus and herself she’s slowly starting to get to know them and understand them and vice versa. I love that AJ keeps her spark and her take no BS attitude! This series has been great and I can’t wait for the next book!!

Wicked Trials had my heart racing, my mind whirling, and my blood pumping the entire time.
This is book two and it begins right where Crooked Crows left off. This book never pauses. Not once. And it made me wonder how the four of them are still standing because my heart never stopped racing while I was reading it.
I hate phrasing it with, this is not your typical reverse harem, because yes, Ava Jane does have a relationship with each of the main characters making this very much a reverse harem, but it is different in how she forms those relationships and in the time she spends with each person. Rook, Grey and Corvus didn't set out looking for a girl to share, it just sort of happened organically along the dark path they are all on.
While they are all attracted to Ava Jane, they are also all pulled to something different that lives within her too. It is truly what makes this book interesting, her individual relationships with each guy. They each get time with her, but aren't possessive about it with each other. Ava Jane has such a strong pull to each one, as much as she tries to resist it, but it's a pull that is unique and individual as they each are. I really like that about this story.
While the band of brothers between Rook, Grey, and Corvus, is strong their broken backgrounds are also what binds them to to Ava Jane. She is also what could ultimately destroy them. She may be currently going through the trials to become one of them, but it was never her ultimate goal. Ava Jane is a power of her own and each guy, as they spend more time with her, recognize the bada$$ that is Ava Jane. She is no damsel in distress waiting to be rescued, she will rescue herself and either kill anyone near her or perhaps save their sorry butt as well. It's a toss up when she has her knives strapped to her.
We learn a lot more about Rook, Grey, and Corvus, their backstories along with some of the mystery surrounding what they currently do. This also means Ava Jane risks getting more attached to these three as well. Something she didn't want to do when she agreed to taking down the organization. Ultimately, the big question becomes, will she make it out alive and with her heart still in tact?
Wicked Trials ends on a cliffhanger and I can hardly wait to find out what's in store for everyone.
