"They say we're murderer and thieves. We're gangsters and lowlifes. Although, to be fair, we recieved those last two labels when we were only children. Poor and alone and not a sin worthy of hell yet to be made."

If you enjoy mafia romance with violence and some BDSM. ANY book with the Carter brothers is for you. This is the first book in Declan's story and man does it end on a cliffhanger.

Braelynn you poor innocent girl you need to run for the hills! Or are you truly innocent? The mistery in this one is getting to me. Is she working for the feds?
 
 Or is she really falling for the big bad wolf? I can't tell yet but so far the story has me in a vice grip and I need answers I can't wait to dive into the second book.

This was my first Willow Winters book and I’m hooked!! This book reads sooo easy and fast, I absolutely loved it!!

It’s a long time ago that I was really into a romance book and that I forgot that I was reading. I was intrigued, invested and really shocked at the end.

I love how Declan has the “touch her and you will (literally) die” vibe but has a soft spot for Braelynn but just doesn’t want to admit it 🙈 and the spice in this one is immaculate and really hot 🥵

I really want to read book 2 ASAP. I was sad it was over and I can’t wait to read more about Declan & Braelynn and the world she got dragged into because she has a soft spot for the bad guy.

Wow what an ending. What a cliff hanger! Some parts of me love this story to bits, I love the BDSM + alpha male tropes and other parts of me HATE how quickly Braelynn is quick to say 'yes Declan'. But that tiny piece of disghust and unease is what makes this such a good plot. I'm really looking forward to reading book 2 and seeing how Braelynn will come out of all this. 
Also how did the Prologue tie in? That part still confuses me. 
Sent to me by the Author for honest review.

 Hot damn, this book was hot!

This was my first time reading something from Ms. Winters and it will not be the last. I would say that Tease Me Once is dark erotica romance. Sprinkled with little bit of plot. Little bit. It's very quick, kinky and intense read. Mind you, it has a bombshell cliffy! 👀

We follow 2 povs: Declan and Braelynn.
As I understand, Declan (the youngest of Cross brothers in the crime family) occurred first in Merciless series and fans have been waiting for his story to be told.

Braelan (yes, I gave them ship name lol) knew each other when they were kids and now Braelynn is working in Declan's exclusive gentlemen's club as a waitress. Someone in the club is informant and Cross brothers needs to find out who it is. And our sweet Braelynn is so curious to the point that it's questionable.

Declan is very dominant, commanding and ruthless where's Beylann is soft, sweet and in the beginning - naive. They have great chemistry together and openness, that is rare in these sort of 'relationships'.

My major issue is that I still wanted to have more depth and background to both of them. Yes yes, erotica and all. But the whole setup was good and if author would have utilised it, this would have a higher rating.

Thank you to Willow Winters, for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review! All thoughts are my own and left voluntarily. 

Thank you so much to the author for the copy of this book for an honest review. 

I adored Declan and Braelynn. Their chemistry was simply off the charts and so so intense!!

I binged this in a couple of hours and will not be getting over it any time soon, especially after that untimely cliffhanger.

Braelynn, the girl looking for a new start from her old life. Declan, the boy she used to know turned man who spends his time lurking in the darkness. W. Winters extended her Merciless World series with this first series in a trilogy about Declan, Braelynn, and their complex dom-sub, boss-employee relationship. This one is full of spice, angst, and mafia dramatics. It ends on a cliffhanger, so be ready to immediately reach for book 2 when you finish!

Thank you to W. Winters for an .epub of this book in exchange for an honest review!
