I went into this not realizing that this book wouldn't be connected to Hooked so realizing it's set in the early 1900s really through me for a loop at first. Since I'm so used to reading fantasy and historical romance with royalty...my brain kept trying to thing this was much earlier in time than it was so when they'd mention guns/cameras/etc it took me a minute to remember when it was set.

There is just something about a man, who had a rough childhood, that believes he's this hard carefree person when in reality he does so many things that shows he cares...thats just *chefs kiss*

We also love a leading lady who takes no bullshit and is willing to do whatever it takes to avenge a wrong.

A fun read though doesn't feel like a book I'll reread over and over.

I could only get into it to a certain point before it became a bit more torture porn-y for my taste.

Better than hooked when it comes to the romance. He is DEVOTED to her. I eat it up. Sex is worse though. Plot is solid but the setting was odd. Why is she wearing a corset in the 1920’s?

I honestly loved this. I really enjoyed Tristan’s character especially seeing his childhood and how it affected him. Also HES OBSESSED and I LOVE IT. Sara is also a bad bitch and I love how Simon balances out their bad deeds. 9/10 smut
