Good points 
-Taboo Romance 
-Bikers 
-main male lead is fierce about his woman 

Bad points 
-horrible biker lingo and bikers are obsessed with Elvis??? It’s pretty cliché.
-The female lead flip flopped a lot. 



She was groomed. She was 15 when her crush was encouraged by the grown man and her parents. Then 18 when she was married to a 36 year old man. But then turns around and is with a 18 year old when she is 26. Maybe not as big of a gap and King was really pushy but still kinda gives an ICK factor. 

I feel like she didn’t give her brother enough of a chance. Then again maybe that’s messed up cause of the situation she was in but he went to jail for her, bought her a house, and made sure they could find her. Not saying he is brother of the year… she also was like I am never taking money from a man again but then caved immediately.

I ate this book up! The way King talks is addictive and swoon worthy. We all need a man like him that will protect her no matter the price, do anything to make her happy, and is her twin flame. I really enjoyed the taboo aspect too! I can’t wait to continue this series, I have a feeling it’s gonna be one of my top favorite series. And I’ve heard the next book is even better!

Didn’t expect to like this book, but I did. King is just such a MAN. I was swooning and wishing he’d break faces for me. Still, I didn’t love the student-teacher relationship. They kept focusing on it and it made me feel kind of ick. Which is why I give 3 stars not 4. That said, I genuinely enjoyed reading about these violent bikers.
