carmen_6 's review for:

Empire of Lust by J.L. Beck

4.0

Okay, so I was reading the reviews on this book and a lot of people were saying that it was a DNF book so I went into it with low expectations. However, I kept reading…and reading…and reading. The author’s writing is incredible and THAT is what kept me glued to each page. This trope is not really for me (I thought it was going to lean more on the mafia than more on the age gap), but the scenarios they kept putting themselves in, were equal parts realistic and equal parts annoying, which kept me interested to see what they would do. I’m not gonna read the second one, but the first one was a good read. Like a little tellanovella.
