Vegas Underground Book 5

HE KIDNAPPED ME. HELD ME PRISONER. I knew Junior Tacone was dangerous. I worked for him once taking care of his mother. I thought when the job was over I’d be safe. Out of his awareness. Out of his reach. But his brother took a bullet and Junior chose me to be his nurse. So I’m his prisoner, trapped in his beautiful house, subject to his rule. And it seems he’s developed a thing for me. Which means he may never let me go...

Note: This steamy stand-alone romance is the fifth in USA Today bestselling author Renee Rose's Vegas Underground series. No cheating, no cliffhangers.

 


My Review:

Before I even started reading this book, I was intrigued with the premise. I mean, Junior has been a thoroughly dislikable character for the whole series so far and I couldn’t imagine how the author was going to redeem him. I loved how she did it. I wasn’t completely a fan of the way she showed my previous favorite heroes as callous jerks to do it, but I really appreciated Junior’s sense of honor for his family and their history. Desiree was a little hit and miss with me. There were moments I loved her and moments I could have done without her, but overall, I thought she was a perfect fit to challenge Junior and bring out his protective side. I read a borrowed copy of this book.
