A review by kazza248
Without Consequence by Victoria L. James, L.J. Stock

I purchased this book initially out of curiosity as MC isn't (wasn't) really my genre, I wanted to know what all the hype was about Drew Tucker....and from the first page I was drawn in not wanting to stop reading, this book is so well written you don't just read it you feel it, every emotion they go through, but I wouldn't expect anything less from these two brilliant authors.

Drew was just out of prison after being inside for five years, he was back home with his brothers, but something wasn't right, something was missing.......enter sassy Ayda with her smart mouth that wanted to annoy, anger and challenge him every time she spoke to him, she wasn't scared of him, she was brave and stubborn...he had met his match!

Ayda was a struggling guardian to her Brother Tate after both her parents had been killed, she worked three jobs to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table, she had put her life on hold to care for her brother. Until one night he decided to help or so he thought and brought a whole heap more trouble to her door in the form of Drew Tucker.

Deep down in the book is a love story that is slow to burn but you know its going to happen, along with the violence and brotherhood, and the hatred for the rival gang. You fall in love with Ayda and her strength from the start and the way she pulls Drew out of his shell and open up to her, with her he is a totally different person and she quickly falls in love with him. I really love the character of Deeks, he was loyal to both Drew and Ayda and always willing to help.

I don't know yet if this has changed my mind about MC books but I know that I have to read all the books in this series, I love the work by both of these authors individually, but together they are unstoppable. Off to Amazon now for book 2
