Layla is a free spirited woman who enjoys men. She likes to go out and have a good time. While at this bar with her friend who was trying to find out information on the sex club being built next door a man spills a drink all over her. While swiping on a dating app she sees the man and decides to try to meet up with him so that she can berate him for what he did to her. Well, Tristan is intrigued he doesn’t date much because he is very particular with what he likes. He likes to have full control and prefer his partner to be submissive. Now Layla is not really sure that she would like to be involved in that sort of dynamic. However, once she gets a taste and she reads the books Tristan gives her she’s starting to think it won’t be that bad. But, Tristan is also the head of the Irish mafia group and he is battling two different groups. So he not only needs to watch and protect his brothers but Layla as well. One group is fighting with him because of something his younger brother did. I loved the family aspect of this book. These brothers are supportive, love one another and always there to lend a hand, fight a foe or whatever is needed. Great story. It’s very spicy and has some dark moments. I enjoyed the usual mafia aspects of violence on the page and a mystery. I cannot wait to read the book about the remaining brothers in this series.
