I love Sinclair Kelly, and her books are just always so good. However, this one just felt like it was nothing but steam. I read a lot of romance/steamy books, so I feel a little hypocritical here but when a book is like all smut, they tend to just not work for me and that’s kind of what happened here. I really loved the background story and wanted to focus more on the Syndicate, hunting down who is in charge of that ring and helping it, and rescuing people. It felt like such a huge thing that the book kind of treated as an afterthought. Plus, I needed the guys to grovel and fight for Fallon’s forgiveness, but we honestly don’t get any of that. It’s like she spent 10 years avoiding anything to do with them and the band, and then once she shows up at the concert not only do, they find her basically right away but then right after the concert they’re hooked up! I needed her to hold out more, make them grovel, and be slow burn. But like I said the steam in here is maxed out and I just wish we focused more on the story because it was really good just needed more focus on it. It didn’t feel like a Sinclair Kelly book. I want to eventually continue with the series to see if the balance of the smut and story gets better because there is a whole series revolving around the Syndicate and I hope to get more of the missions in future books.
