I do NOT consider these as stand-alone reads, as there are multiple reoccurring characters, overlapping timelines, and overarching themes. For all the stories, but especially this one, I HIGHLY advise these be read in the author’s recommended order for maximum reader satisfaction and to prevent spoilers because there are two different series interwoven together (Dark and Dirty Sinners’ MC and The Five Points’ Italian Mob series.
CAUTION: May contain spoilers if you have not read any of the previous stories in either series
⛔️ There are multiple warnings about subject matter that may be a trigger or offensive to some. If you have any sensitive topics, please read in its entirety.
Contains adult language, derogatory terms used to describe females (some males), steamy MF and MFM adult intimate scenes, and violence. Here are some of the areas / themes covered, which may be referenced or detailed within the story: dominance, submission, kidnapping, abduction, murder / assassination, torture, human trafficking, assault, drug distribution, money laundering, betrayal, rape, restraints, degradation, knife play, breath play, blood play, sadism, masochism, “bathroom” play, domestic violence, sexual abuse, mental abuse, physical abuse (some with a minor), etc.
** There are also themes of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, and suicide **
This is a darker themed, reverse harem story due to the characters’ history. It wasn’t clear in the beginning, at least to me, that this was a reverse harem. The timeline overlaps with the previous story. I have included a brief background for each character below.
Serena Akeroyd does an excellent job handling the sensitive themes of this story. I wasn’t concerned after reading previous stories with similar themes, but I didn’t expect the moments of levity, or the creative ways Amara finds to take back her control or embraces her courage.
There are some grammatical issues, but nothing difficult to interpret (I did not include those that were used by Amara’s character as that is part of the storyline). These were primarily incorrect word / tense choice, missing and extra inserted words. The most distracting part is the usage of phrases and/or terms not part of the American lexicon, although not as prevalent as in previous stories. I am trying to make sure I mention these for readers such as myself that visualize the story as it is read, because errors interrupt the flow.
Here are the backgrounds and a brief recap on how the story begins:
Amara is one of the three females rescued from the Lancaster mens’ country shack. She was trafficked from the Ukraine and was near death when found. She has recovered physically for the most part, but not mentally. Amara does speak relatively good English, but hid it from the others for quite awhile. Another told the group about Amara being fascinated with Giulia, as she watches and studies her / others. Some believe that she is a lesbian or has romantic feelings for Giulia.
Quin is the younger brother of Nyx and Indiana. He was referenced here and there but not really included in scenes until later. He was a victim of the Sparrows when he refused to do their bidding and was sent to prison for something he didn’t do. Quin was still a juvenile at the time, but was tried as an adult and the Sparrows made sure he received a harsher sentence than he should have. Quin didn’t tell anyone about being set up until Nyx finally relented and visited him in prison to tell him about their sister. Then Nyx worked with their allies to get him a pardon. Quin was notified and was shivved by another prisoner before he could be released (his time in Rikers is more detailed in the previous story).
Hawk was introduced in the first story and has the most normal background. He has a sister named Giulia, a twin named North, and their father, Dog, was a patched member of the Sinners’ MC. Dog was abusive, so his mother moved him, North, and Giulia out West, where their Mother met someone and remarried. After her death, the three of them returned to the MC, Giulia met Nyx, North met Dog’s new wife, ran off with her and is now suspected of his death, and Hawk was a prospect that patched in the night the MC clubhouse was blown up.
This story begins after the clubhouse has been destroyed and construction has begun. Hawk works for the MC Enforcer, but floats to cover whatever job is needed. Currently that is a bouncer at their strip club. Amara is quiet and watches everyone, some more than others. She has taken up watching and waiting for Hawk to come in from the club, of which he is aware. One day she approaches him and they have a conversation on the front porch, which leads Hawk to make an offer he never expects her to take him up on. Then she surprises them both and accepts …
