📘Book Info
Prepare for Betrayal and Redemption in Sin City.
As the leader of the Hellhounds and a valued member of the notorious Thoreau crime syndicate, Isaac has it all: power, money, fear. Falling for someone has never been on his radar. But for the first time in his life, Isaac thinks he's found someone he can truly trust—the mysterious security guard who shattered through his icy defenses and became the one person Isaac could be himself with.
Until everything goes up in flames.
Dallas Bradley has been treading an unstable line of deceit between righteousness and criminality. Isaac Thoreau's world is slowly turning him into Hawk, the man who doesn't exist, the man who's ready to do bad things to survive and remain close to Isaac. But when a dangerous deal goes south, in order to save Isaac's life, Dallas is forced to reveal the devastating truth—he's a Special Agent sent to infiltrate the Hellhounds and bring down Isaac.
Heartbroken and enraged, Isaac can't stand the man who betrayed him so deeply. However, when it's clear Isaac's fate is prison, Dallas strikes a bargain with his boss: help save Isaac from life behind bars and keep Dallas undercover to clean up the mess.
Isaac hates Dallas more than ever, but to escape the crosshairs they must work together once more. As tempers and stakes flare in the streets of Sin City, Dallas will risk everything to redeem himself in Isaac's eyes. But can their undeniable connection survive when trust has turned to ash?
💭Our Thoughts
"The game has begun, the board set, and the pieces moving in silence. And for some reason, in the darkened corners of purgatory hope feels like a candle in the rain."
We pick up pretty much where we left off from book one.
Hellfire is currently raining down on Issac and his crew
Things just went from bad to absolutely impossible
And Dallas is now clearly seeing how things are just not adding up
"He's a very skilled illusionist, and I fell for the act - hook, line, and sinker."
He didnt have a choice.
The truth was at the tip of his fingers, he knew which side he stood on.
But can he save the man he loves?
Or will the price be too high for either of them?
"Everything you know is just...pieces of a puzzle forced together in the wrong way"
I am not giving anything away in this closing episode
I will however tell you to strap in and hold on tight
This progresses so much faster than book one
The enemy was in our camp the whole time (so to speak)
The missing pieces of the puzzle fall into place
The whole picture now spotlighted
The ending though...
I feel like Issac spent a lot more time on set up whereas Dallas opened with a bang and kept me on edge till the end
Fast-paced, lots of action, so many twists and curves
