Savage Lover by Sophie Lark

3.75

Ya know, for really not being into cars (at all) I really enjoyed this installment of the Brutal Birthright series. I like how the Chicago underground setting continues to develop and captivate. I really enjoyed the classic heist plot and even the shady police officer that made Camille be an informant. I do hope that maybe we see more repercussions of stealing from the Alliance Bank vault, and would love to see more of Vic (Camille’s 17 year old half-bro) too. Nero was always an intriguing shadow in the other books and getting to finally know him was lovely. I also liked how he saw Camille as more than a “grease monkey” when no one else did. Also, I hope Camille finds her place in the Gallo family as the badass woman she is. 

One negative to this book: I would’ve liked to see Mikolaj and Nessa make a cameo here. Honestly the more Miko content, the better. Similarly, I’ll be looking for more Nero/Camille content in the next books. Callum and Aida continue to be main characters and frankly, I just don’t love them that much.
