A story at its core about family. It’s also a romance, a mafia tale, erotic and gruesome. It’s all here and if there are warnings, heed them. The SA in this book is very detailed and could certainly trigger someone.
Fawn & Clay are an unlikely match, but they certainly know how to light a fire and keep it hot. She’s looking to be chosen, to belong and ultimately loved. Family isn’t something she knows a lot about at 18, but she has an idea.
“For the past eighteen years, I have scratched at the surface of what a family looks like. I've ripped my nails from their beds trying to get to the core of it. Feel it. It's more than dinners and movies and conversations. More than sharing a space. It's effortless togetherness. Laughter on a hammock. Cradling your wife. Dancing. It's in the resting smile…” (Fawn)
Clay is head of the Cosa Nostra in Australia and married for business but not for romance nor physical intimacy. His wife Aurora is mafia royalty, but she wasn’t groomed to lead. Family is the reason Clay leads. His brothers and their families are why he builds the businesses and continues as the Mayor. When Fawn arrives, he sees revenge and a pretty little burden to play with as he pleases.
It’s intense but oh so good. The heat is scorching and you might find yourself needing more breaks than you thought. Great book & I’m ready for His Pretty Little Queen next.

Slow Burn but Oh so worth it
This book is beautifully written, I LOVED IT!!!! TRIGGER WARNINGS, Please read them! This book is dark and not for the faint of heart. The realistic glimpse into the darkness of the foster system seems universal, the book is set in Australia but could just as easily be in the US, UK, anywhere in the world. I LOVE the raw and unapologetic re/telling of Fawn's story. We really get a sense of who Clay Butcher is in this book and the realationship between him and Fawn is perfection. His character evolution as she wiggles into his daily life is sooo... Clay, (stoic, quiet, controlled, dangerous.) This is probably my favorite book in the series just becuase of the dark realities in the pages. Fawn's unwillingness to give up and survive life and Clay's unwillingness to let her JUST survive...*chef's kiss*
