It\u2019s a fast-moving story that continues to blur the line between good and evil, and with action, revenge, and new alliances formed, I love the way this book played out.<\/p>\n<p>The steam is absent, but the romance is strong, and I loved seeing Gabriel and Mercy together, committed, and determined to claim their HEA.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cHaven\u2019t you figured it out yet? Everything I have is yours \u2026 Including my heart. That\u2019s yours. It\u2019ll never be anyone else\u2019s.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Gabriel is a wonderful bad-boy turned romantic hero. He\u2019s still operating in shades of grey, but his heart is in the right place, and his journey throughout the series is really well done. Mercy was always a bit of a badass, but this book shows just how far she\u2019s come, how brave she is, and how she\u2019s such a great match for Gabriel, more than able to hold her own in his world. These two have become quite the powerhouse couple, and I loved them together so much.<\/p>\n<p>There are lots of loose ends to tie up in this book, and I loved seeing all of the different elements come together. There are some surprises<\/p>\n<p>All of the audiobooks in this series are narrated by Ada Sinclair and Alex Kydd, and they do a great job with the story.<\/p>\n<p>3.5 stars.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Empire Nightclub<\/strong><\/h4>\n<div data-post-id=\"73864\" class=\"insert-page insert-page-73864 \"><p><strong>Originally published under the penname Nina
