I saw this book recommendation on BookTok and since the description sounded intruiging, I wanted to give it a try.
You know I love taboo/dark romance's and I really wanted to like this but I didn't. I couldn't get into this story and I was cringing so hard. Especially over the fact how many times King called Cressida babe. Of course, it's okay to use it as a nickname but King used it too much and it got on my nerves.
I didn't like any of our main characters and I couldn't feel their chemistry at all. I didn't care for the smut either (I'm a smut girlie) and I skipped these pages.
I DNF-d it at like 90% because I couldn't finish it. I just didn't care for this book, I'm sorry. I feel bad for writing negative reviews but sadly, it wasn't for me.

This is a reread for me and six years later, it's not as great a read as I remember, although it's still a good book. A few plot holes and storylines weren't as fleshed out as expected, but it was an authors first book so I still think it's better than most authors first books.
Loved the affections.....loved the family of bikers....
It’s so easy to fall in love with the Fallen Men!
With every Giana book I read, I fall more in love with her fabulous antihero men! King may be young in years but he’s more mature than most 40 year old men. Cressida may be the “adult” in the relationship, but he’s going to be the one to help her discover who she really is. The journey they take together is SO worth ride! If I thought Zeus was fire, I had no idea until I saw him more in his role as a father here...

3.5 stars! Cressida is unhappy in her marriage and after seeing an attractive, dangerous looking man in a grocery store parking lot, it sparks her to finally leave her husband. She sees the same man out at a bar a few weeks later and starts dating him only to find out that he is not only the son of The Fallens MC's president, but is also her new 18 year old student, King Garro. I think this book had some plot issues. Cressida and King have the same conversations over and over and decisions are made about the relationship that are taken back two pages later. But King Garro is an unbelievably attractive and interesting character! I was swooning the entire time reading it! A very steamy fun, read!!
no denying this was good. i mean it’s a taboo MC romance that’s framed as a loose reinterpretation of Paradise Lost with an impossibly hardened and mature but incredibly sweet 18 year old as the love interest/sexy Satan.

did the evil rival gang really have to be Mexican? :(
