A feel like more of a mystery-romance, then a taboo kinky read that I as expecting. I have very k mixed feelings about the dr and does he have a God complex or is his heart in the right place. Right up until the very end, them I'm not as forgiving as the kids. I love the relationships, the pot smoking was hilarious, the characters well developed. Honestly, I hope there is another book and this becomes a series because we are left with several things not addressed. A HFN.

Hottest elevator sex scene ever! If that isn't enough to get you to read this book then read it because it's an awesome story about a bunch of hot guys that have made it their life mission to cause a little havoc to the underworld of human trafficking. Some very wealthy FBI agents, some that just get caught in the cross fire so to speak, but a very well written story.
There are a few typos that were missed, so editing could be better. But don't let that dissuade you in any way

Sry good dark read, the elements of the story were there unfortunately the ending was really rather anticlimactic. The first person story telling was well done, it was well written no well edited. I loved the characters but really would call it a romance with a dark past.
Head the warnings. The kids in this book endured and survived some terrible abuse and suffer ongoing mental health issues so there could be many triggers.
I normally love a HEA, and I really love that these characters found each other but I think I just expected a darker twist towards the end, like maybe someone from his past coming back to try to reclaim what they perceived as being taken away from the. Might have made it better, might not have. Just my two cents. ...more

I don't know even know where to start. This is my first time reading A. A. dark and let me just say I love everything about my first read. I love the I don't know even know where to start. This is my first time reading A. A. dark and let me just say I love everything about my first read. I love the pen name, I love the title, I love the cover and most of all I love this crazy dark read.
The story is based in its entirety in the placed called Whitlock. Whitlock is a city within itself, with a governing ruling body, a medical facility, a town center, it's on "police force". It's a distopia for those with very outrageous, twisted fettishes (fettishes might be to tame of a word, but I got nothing else) that can afford to join the community where with the right amount of money they can buy anything and anyone their twisted mind desires.
The book starts with Bram, who is the head Master of Whitlock. What he says goes to the point of his guards exacting his discipline even when it's to one of their own. He has come to notice a particular slave who has him struggling to maintain his separation from the deprevity of those he oversees. Brams right hand man and "friend" from a very young age is West. West comes to want everything Bram has, and will stop at nothing to get it.
24690 is the slave Bram has been watching. She came to Whitlock as a child of only 10 and was bought by her Master. Her Master is suddenly found dead and she finds herself in the middle of the struggle between Bram and West.
This story unravels with so many twists and turns it keeps you guessing. Truly the events of what nightmares are made of. It does end on a cliffhanger and after a very intense scene that is left unfinished.
Head the warnings! Or Not and enjoy this insanely dark read! ...more

So, this is one of those reads for a long vacation, or long travel ride because it is long. And some parts seem just a bit to long before you get through the gas to get to the steamy hot ass parts. But I couldn't put it down, and even though I thought this was the end there is a twist at then end that just needs resolved, and of course I'm still waiting to see how this HEA will work. I just hope it's not another 500 pager to find out. ...more
