This is one of those very polarizing books for me. While the concept is there, I felt that it lacked the pow. Marcella, being the daughter of the Capo, did not want to bow down to her dad’s wishes and marry the man they picked for her. Maddox is out for revenge and for his MC club, she was the perfect target. For me, I could not connect very well to the characters in this one. I felt that I needed more fire from them. I very much enjoyed the push and pull and every little twist. I just felt it was a little flat for me. While this is part one, there is more coming so it ends on a slight cliffy. I am intrigued as to what the author has planned for these two in the second part though. Solid 3 and a half stars from me.
