It starts slow with a lot of teasing. But when the story progresses you just can not put the book down! I love the character development and the storyline. I really recommend this one if you want spice and a laugh<3

LIKE BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY that this book took me the longest to get into and guess WHAT? A SOLID DNF.. yeah, I was really excited for the story cause if you don't know me I AM obsessed with bikes and bikers on tiktok, I AM A SUCKER so I was going ASAP to pick this book and binge it.
The initial allure of the narrative, encapsulated in the assertion of desire from a man who typically achieves his wants, sets the stage for a potentially gripping dark romance. However, the execution disappointingly falters, relying excessively on clichéd archetypes such as the brooding, possessive anti-hero and the innocent heroine who undergoes a sultry transformation. Nico “Junior” Trocci is depicted as obsessively dangerous rather than intriguingly enigmatic, and his fixation on Lauren veers unsettlingly close to stalking rather than the passionate romance the story aims to portray. Rather than cultivating a nuanced and compelling relationship between the protagonists, the plot hastily propels them into lust-driven encounters that lack the emotional resonance and character development necessary to engage the reader fully.
Lauren’s journey from a timid bookworm to a confident club-goer holds the potential for a powerful narrative arc, yet it is regrettably reduced to a mere backdrop for Junior’s objectification and possessive tendencies. Her internal struggles and emotional complexities are superficially addressed, rendering her more of a fantasy figure than a fully fleshed-out character. The club scenes, while undeniably steamy and explicit, overshadow any genuine attempts at plot progression or meaningful relationship dynamics. Ultimately, the novel resembles a collection of spicy fanfiction rather than a thoughtfully crafted romance, leaving readers yearning for depth and authenticity that remains tantalizingly out of reach.
the only thing that I loved is the bike that Junior has...and it's such a waste..
