"I have never wanted to be called "Kitten" as much as I did while reading this book.<br/><br/>Enzo, the Saint's enforcer, and Hawke the bartender from the fight club, have been lovers for years. Each of the MMC had a traumatic past. Enzo, went silent, while Hawke wore his scars on his face. I loved how they gave each other strength and balanced each other out.<br/><br/>Blake (FMC) is pretty reckless, and while running from her past, she is looking for moments to make her feel alive. She ends up in the underground nightclub, causing Enzo and Hawke to take notice.<br/><br/>When the three of them combine, it's pure perfection. Throughout the story, you uncover some crazy interconnected pasts. The connections (as well as the 3 MC in general) kept me from putting this book down. It just kept getting better and better. Oh, and who could forget the spice"

"Loved this! Couldn’t put it down. Found a new favorite writer in LJ. The Devil Wears Black was the first I read of hers and it had me hooked! Love her style: funny, real, relatable "
