Rating: 4.5 Stars, rounding up, because I love the Marked Men
Crownover does it again. She gave me a captivating, swoony, lovely, sweet. funny, sexy and tear-invoking novel. I am so entrenched in the MM family, that I will lose my stuff when I read Asa and it's all over. JC has gotten better and better, with each novel, at giving us bits and pieces of the other couples and letting us know how their relationships have changed and evolved, while still keeping the focus on the current couple. This book focuses on Rowdy and Salem and their second chance romance. I really enjoyed getting to know Rowdy, since we didn't really know much about him before, and how do you know love a guy with a heart that big! Great romance with enough drama to keep it interesting and plenty of the heat that we expect from the Marked Men.
