Summary

Payton

Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds.

When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified.

I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

Nero

The first time I took a man's life, I knew there'd be no going back, no normal existence in the cards for me. Instead of walking away, I climbed a mountain of bodies and created my own destiny by forming The Alliance. And I was fine with that, content enough to carry on.

Until I stepped through those open doors, and into her life.

I should've walked away. Should've gone right back out the door I came through. But I didn't. And now her life is in danger. That's the thing about being a bad man. I'll happily paint the streets red to protect what's mine.

And Payton is mine. Whether she knows it or not.

So good

I was really surprised how much I liked the storyline. But I would have wished that man speaks for man and woman for woman and not mixing. Overall good listening and can recommend!

The start to a great series

I have read all 3 books that are currently released in this series but as preparation for book 4 Hans release I decided to listen to the audio book throughout December .

Tropes :

Virgin FMC
stalker MMC
Mafia
He wants her but can’t have her

I mean what’s not to love with those tropes.

Nero jumps onto Paytons balcony when trying to escape the authorities and he instantly becomes obsessed with her , watching her from a building over the road . He knows he wants her but also knows this will put her life in danger

Payton wants more of the mystery man she met one dark and stormy night but with a troubled past can she trust him .

Although a lot of the plot has dark moment there really are some comedy scenes particularly between Nero and King , There is just something about SJ Tilly’s writing that draws you in and leaves you needing more

Loved it

My first time listening to something written by S.J Tilly and I loved it.. The narrator Jack Calihan and Chloe Ryan really bought the characters to life.. The MMC was the right amount of bad, possessive, spice and love.. The thing I really liked was the FMC didn’t argue just bcoz she could and decline everything.. she accepted his love and went with it.. The love and spicy scenes were hot.. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️❤️

Nero really is a weirdo

I’ve read the book but didn't realize until I heard it how weak Peyton is. Out of all the women in this series, she is the weakest. Hearing it makes her annoying. But we'll worth the listen. Very nice performance. But I can not help but wonder, how do they feel when they read the spicy scenes out loud.
