*****Book review*****

>Conflict & Interest<

I knew this would end in a cliffhanger, but DANG!  🫒  Well played, Abby.  Well played.

I'm starting in the middle of the trilogy, and I'm able to easily keep up.  There are a few back story items that I'd like more details on.  For those, I do have the first book and hope to go back to it before I read the conclusion, but I don't think it's a requirement.

From the beginning, Sawyer (little nuisance, petit diable, Sawwie(sp?)) Davvies is fighting her attractions even to the men she's already given herself to.  One man is twisted, the other hot.  I expected this to be wicked hot, and it didn't disappoint.  🌢

-- Book quote
'Forget possession. 
Pure obsession has taken over.'
-- Tytus Tremblay

Now, here's my quick take on our amorous, possessive men.  Tytus (Ty) Tremblay definitely has some demons that he needs to exorcize before he can be worthy of Sawyer.  His πŸ† piercings do have me overlooking a flaw or five.  πŸ”₯  And those moments they get lost in each other are... 🫦 ...dynamite.  πŸ’₯  I think he's the hardest for me to come around to.

The past haunts Mercer Eden, too, and when he gives into the darkness, I'm left wondering if Sawyer can forgive his mistake.  He is definitely over-the-top even on a good day.  I mostly find his antics hit my dark sense of humor.  He does need a swift kick in the pants on occasion.  Just be careful where you kick because those other skills are very yummy.  The fact that he seems to be as fluid with his sexuality as Sawyer makes me like him a bit more.

Noah Henry is the heart and provides a safe space for those he cares for.  He's incredibly easy to like.  Like everyone else, he has some ghosts that haunt him, but his sensitive nature calls to me.

I'll be back.  I need to see where this goes.

I listened to the audio book.  Lee Samuels,…

*****Book review*****

>Vengeance Granted<

I've read plenty of over-the-top books. In most cases, it works. In this case, I felt like Pierce DeLuca and Mila were shafted. I was left feeling like their story was only half told.

This was my first time with this author. I will try again, because even though I believe there's more to tell here, I do like the overall arc.

A few things to note. One, there are plenty of hints to the first book, so this should likely be read in order, but I was able to follow along fine. Two, this is more of an HFN. As the lead in for the next book was provided, it's possible their HEA comes later in the series. Three, there are some content warnings that you may want to heed, most of it is offscreen - non-con, violence, and abuse are the biggest ones.

Oh, one other thing. This is supposed to be 290 pages, but based on the listening time of the audio, I'd put it at about half that length. That's either some creative formatting or a misprint.

I won a copy of the audio book. The narrators are Eva Caine and Walker Williams. Both are new to me, and I liked them a lot. The accents weren't consistent, but I still enjoyed the experience.

Story: 3.5 stars
Narration: 4 stars
Listening Speed: 1.6x


>UPDATED 9/2026:<
I listened to the audio again. I'm sticking with my original ratings, but I do have a better appreciation for the story since starting the series from the beginning.
