I was so excited to find out I was approved for an eARC of Leather & Lark via NetGalley as I was chomping at the bit for June 4th to get here.
Leather & Lark picks up shortly after the events of Butcher & Blackbird and features the best friend of Sloane, Lark Montague and the oldest Kane brother, Lachlan.
What starts as a marriage of convenience, or more accurately, a marriage of protection, slowly builds into something neither Lachlan nor Lark can really comprehend.
Someone is killing off members of Larks shady family and there's the shadowy Phantom from the end of Butcher & Blackbird skulking around.
I loved every minute of this. The banter between Lachlan and Lark had me laughing out loud. There were some special guest appearances of The Boston Butcher and The Orb Weaver, and Fionn and Rose (forthcoming Book #3: Scythe & Sparrow) and some really incredibly well written raw moments.
These two characters truly could not stand each other in the beginning, and rightfully so once you find out why. It was so gratifying to watch them slowly realize they have a lot more in common than they realize and that when someone truly sees you? Nothing can beat it.
This story revolves more around Lachlan and Larks relationship and the murder subplot really took a backseat with this one. Slow burn, Mutual pining and murder galore. If you liked B&B, you'll love Leather & Lark
