Jaded by Lana Black
5.0

What an amazing debut novel from Lana Black! What happens when you're life sucks and you're at the wrong place at the wrong time? Jade finds that out the hard way, on her birthday of all days.

Living with her deadbeat parents and abusive boyfriend, Jade's life isn't the best. She's forced to go out and cash her birthday check to buy booze for her parents. What's worse, her terrible boyfriend Eddie sends her out in the shortest dress, sky-high heels, and refuses to let her put on panties...and makes her walk the whole way. Stopping at a coffee shop for a quick birthday drink, she finds herself being harassed by two men on the street, but two other men come to her aid.

Ace, Mick, Xander, and Ian are looking for an out of their current situation. They don't want to be gangsters anymore. They want to live a simple life, maybe even settle down. But when the job they're on goes south, and they kidnap Jade because she recognized one of them, their lives all change. While they all find something in each other, they aren't in the clear, especially with Burto and the sleazeball Peirce lurking around the corner.

Make sure to read the trigger warnings before starting this book, because some scenes can be hard to read. Be warned, this book does end on a brutal cliffhanger...I'm eagerly anticipating book 2! If you're a fan of enemies to lovers, age gaps, MM, or why choose/reverse harem, check out Jaded!
