Review copy provided by the publisher
Shayla Black and Lexi Blake are better than Batman and Robin.
These two really are the Dynamic Duo! When they get together to write a book,
magic happens. And a whole bunch of filthy deliciousness!
This series has knocked me off of my feet. You really have to
focus on all the details that are thrown at you. This is not a book where you
can mindlessly flip through the pages. You need to be fully involved. All the
books in this series are like that. And I freakin' love it!!
Dax and Holland have danced around their attraction for ages.
Mostly, Dax has been pursuing and, Holland hasn't let her vagina take over her
common sense. When they finally get together, it seems like all may be right.
But there's this unfortunate issue with a scandal involving, Dax's dead
father.
I have all these conspiracy theories running through my head
about this series. There's a mystery plot line that continues in each book. It
keeps getting more and more intricately woven. I have my own thoughts on what
happened to a certain character, but I'll keep those to myself and let you form
your own opinions. This is what I'm talking about when I say that you have to
be fully invested and involved while reading.
It's kinda hard to write a review without giving away some of
the important parts, and I don't want to ruin it. So, let me just focus on the
relationship between, Dax and Holland! Have you ever watched someone throw lighter
fluid on a bonfire and it just lights right up? That's exactly what happens
when these two come together...combustion! They have such incredible passion.
Two stubborn people who are so crazy for each other, they can't see straight.
Separately, Lexi Blake and Shayla Black write super over the top, scrumptiously
decadent sex scenes. But together? Sweet Jesus, it makes all my senses take
notice!
There are a number of players in this book. All are important to
the plot. This series is about a group of men who have made an oath out of
their loyalty to one another. Best friends to the end, kinda thing. While each
couple gets their happily ever after at the end of their book, the plot
continues on. But it's not a cliffhanger in the traditional sense. You aren't
left ticked off. You're left with the need for more and all sorts of ideas
running through your head!
I know I haven't given many clues into what happens in the book,
but I would be doing you a disservice to give away too much. Just know, that
the characters are extremely likeable, the sexy scenes are scorching, the
romance is thick, and there's enough spy and murder plots to keep any James
Bond fan enthralled for hours!
In order to enjoy this book, you must start at the beginning of
the series. That's where the journey begins. You need to start with getting to
know the Perfect Gentlemen and their stories from the start. If you aren't left
with conspiracy theories running through your brain while you're trying to
sleep, I'll eat my hat. Seriously, I'm not sure I've ever been this invested in
a series! I can hardly wait for the next installment!
