Review<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Another quick trip down into Sector Four.<\/p>\n

3.5 stars.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

This novella provides a slightly different view into life within Sector Four, with a focus on the politics in the marketplace. I love that each book is fleshing out this world more and more, and still giving us the chance to check in on the bunch of filthy but loveable baddasses that inhabit it. This time the focus is on badass club bouncer, Zan, and local crafter, Tatiana.<\/p>\n

Tatiana is the daughter of the tyrant who used to rule Sector Four – the man who was killed in order for Dallas O\u2019Kane to take over. Since then she has been a target, snubbed by those who survived her father\u2019s cruel leadership, and a symbol of power for those trying to rise up and take down the powerful O\u2019Kanes. She lives her life balanced on a fine line \u2013 staying in the shadows and keeping her head down, not showing allegiance to either side of the battle.<\/p>\n

When the growing rebellion within Sector Four gains the attention of Dallas O\u2019Kane, he sends Zan in to shut it down \u2013 which includes tempting Tatiana to the O\u2019Kane side of the battle lines. Zan is only too willing to do whatever he can to prove himself to Dallas after a previous attack which left him feeling like he failed the man, and his feelings for Tatiana make the job even sweeter.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy me?\u201d she repeated, all that Stone recklessness turning it into a challenge.
\nHe met her gaze, unflinching and unabashed. \u201cBecause I don\u2019t just look at you \u2026 I see you. I\u2019ve been seeing you for months.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s made very clear that the feelings between these two have been bubbling away quietly for some time, so the tension between them is already pretty high. And as with all books in this series, the sexy time is steaming! Zan and Tatiana have great chemistry, and Tatiana\u2019s need to be free and open up to Zan completely in the bedroom means that the sex is not only hot, but has an emotional element to it that makes the intimacy even more intense.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to do beautiful, filthy things to me. I want you to fuck me.\u201d
\nThe hand on her belly slid to her hip, and Zan edged his thumb under her waistband to stroke her skin. \u201cI\u2019m here,\u201d he whispered, then tilted her head back with his other hand and claimed her mouth.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I love Zan! The man is awesome! He wants Tatiana, but more than that, he wants to protect her, to keep her safe, and give her the home and family that she has never experienced. He has a huge heart, and there were some really sweet moments between them. But as much as Tatiana wants him, she doesn\u2019t want to get drawn into Sector politics, so it\u2019s not an easy sell. But with her only sister in the direct line of fire from the bad guy, and the promise of Zan and all that he can offer laid out in front of her, there\u2019s only so long she can resist.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat do you need?\u201d
\n\u2026 \u201cSomeone who gets me. Who doesn\u2019t want me to be anything or anyone else. What do I\u00a0want? \u2026 I want it to be you.\u201d
\n\u201cI want it to be me, too.\u201d\u00a0<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I really enjoyed this addition to the series. It takes a bit of a step away from the ongoing storylines, but I would still definitely recommend reading each of the books in order so that you get the whole picture as it unfolds.<\/p>\n

Definitely recommended for fans of the series. 3.5 stars.<\/p>\n
