Madman by W.S. Greer
4.0
Solomon King, the King of all kings, grew up in the school of hard knocks. Born to a neglectful junkie ho, deep in the clutches of poverty, he knew the only way he was going to find a way out was by his own blood, sweat and tears. Armed with an almost cocky attitude and a chip on his shoulder, he and his best friend, Nix, start on the path to success. Once a stick-up kid, he’s graduated to armed robbery. And the sweetest thing he’s ever met, Reina, a girl from the right side of the tracks, proved to be his ride-or-die in every way. Until the day she disappears. Fast forward seven years and Solomon is virtually at the top of his game, his biggest rival being the Philly mob who want to erase him as a threat, and surprisingly Reina is back. Is she here to hurt him or help him? You have to read the book to find out!
I really really really liked Solomon. I get that he was an anti-hero and had virtually no redeeming qualities, but there was a strange sort of honesty in his crimes. And that’s one thing about this character that you have to respect - his honesty. I also admired his fearlessness. This man was freaking BOLD! I enjoyed the action scenes, the background stories, the itty-bitty romance with Reina, and a lot in between. I was hoping that the sex scenes would be hotter, however, after reading the author’s note at the end about how he wanted this to be a book his children could read, I can understand why it was on the milder end. This story is far from over, as far as I can tell, and I look forward to whatever happens next!
