Jesus a hell of a lot happened in this one...including a very crazy cliffhanger. I wanted to scream and slam my kindle shut... but I refrained. just barely.
There really isn't much I can get into without spoiling. Yes the Seven of Spades is back, Yes he's back with a vengeance, and Yes there's more Levi and Dominic. This book however does end with them in a not so good place. I knew it was coming. I read the reviews, but it still made me mad all the same. Can't Levi catch a damn break for once?
As usual I am waiting with bated breath for the next installment of the Seven of Spades.

Oh my Goooood!!! Some good fucking FOOD.
I normally don't like to read romances where the characters are just happy and in love. But I don't mind it in fantasies and other genres where there's other stuff going on in the plot to keep me interested. I'm interested enough in the murder plot that I wouldn't have minded if there was no relationship drama in here.
But the relationship drama in here was just DELICIOUS. As soon as Dominic relapsed I knew there'd be some good relationship drama, and I was not let down. The tension. The drama. I was really into it. Watching my poor, sweet Dominic spiral was sad but like, so so good. I'm loving it.
I'm not entirely unconvinced that Stanton is the Seven Of Spades. I dropped the theory when they began to suspect themselves, but then they just sort of let it drop, so maybe it'll come around back to him? They tried to say his interest in Levi isn't sexual or romantic but idk. This person destroyed Dominic's apartment for hurting Levi. Like... how is that not a twisted form or romance lol
My other theory is the lawyer guy. Sawyer, maybe? But idk. I honestly don't think anyone but Stanton makes sense and I'm DYING to know!!!! Onto One-Eyed Royals!!!

Damn. I knew this series was gonna get angsty at some point but I still wasn’t prepared. This author does such a great job of showing how compatible Levi and Dominic are, despite all the relationship issues popping up. And BOY did they pop up. Dominic’s gambling issues were front and center and being inside his head as he spirals was heartbreaking. Despite wanting him to recover, I think his characterization needed this moment. He had almost been too perfect compared to Levi (which was also addressed in the book!! We love self-awareness). Levi’s anger management situation…listen. I’m just so glad he’s trying to figure himself out, even though I’m here for the ass kicking lol.
But yeah, even when Levi and Dominic are going through it, they still worked together as professionals so well. Despite them coming at each other verbally, their connection couldn’t have been more clear. Ugh, I just love them. Excited (and scared) to see how they move past this.
Also the Seven of Spades lowkey dragging Dominic at the end?? I mean I’m not on their side but…..I understand

This series gets better with every book! There were so many wonderful anxiety-inducing moments reading this. Particularly when I started reading chapter 20, I had to literally put down my phone and take deep breaths to prepare myself for what was about to follow. It was soooo good. All I can say is, get ready for some real relationship drama.
I will say there were times for both Levi and Dominic where they acted...unprofessionally that really annoyed me. However, what I appreciate is that these actions were usually met with some serious consequences. Given that, I can mostly overlook them; also since these times also often enhanced the drama of the story.
I end each of these books wishing I immediately had the next one to start. The next few months of waiting are going to take forever.

Es que no puedo con esta saga. Desde el segundo libro he tenido el problema que, un poquito antes de la mitad, la historia se para un poco y empiezo a dudar si seguir. La trama se vuelve algo monótona, comienzo a dudar sobre si es sostenible narrativamente el romance entre los personajes y también, como buena mujer con problemas de compromiso, me pregunto si llegaré al quinto libro. Pero después empiezo a dar vuelta las páginas y sin darme cuenta ya son las 4 de la mañana y solamente me queda un 15% para terminar. Y todas mis dudas desaparecen, porque CSM LA HISTORIA ADICTIVA NO PUEDOOO.
Declaro: el desarrollo de nuestros protagonistas es francamente espectacular en esta entrega. Ambos están hechos MIERDA, psicologicamente en su peor momento, pero la autora lo taclea tan bien que gozo leyendo. La relación entre ambos y sus problemas además se siente muy orgánica, creíble y, para que les voy a mentir, también estoy viviendo por el drama. Los amo a ambos, pero Levi y su rabia tienen un lugar especial en mi corazón; es exasperante a veces, pero siempre entiendo de donde viene e incluso me llego a sentir identificada (lo que wtf, pero tampoco me sorprende dada mi salud mental lol). A esto le sumamos un supporting cast hermoso, una guerra de pandillas y un asesino serial fascinante, y termonamos con que estaba tan absorbida que ni me dí cuenta cuando ya había llegado al final. Y NECESITO MÁS.
Saga reqlia buena, debería ser ilegal su existencia.

The best one in the series so far!! The stakes are much higher than in the earlier books and we finally see some emotional, character and relationship development happening. This novel gave me what the others before had lacked. I love it when the main characters are going through it - and oh boy, Levi, Dominic & co are NOT having a good time. I also loved the mysterious, damning, ominous presence of The Seven of Spades. They're a marvelous opponent. I truly enjoyed this book.
