Bane by L.J. Shen

Bane (Sinners of Saint, #4)

by L.J. Shen

Roman 'Bane' Protsenko
Naked surfer. Habitual pothead. A con, a liar, a thief and a fraud.
Last I heard, he was extorting the rich and screwing their wives for a living.
Which is why I’m more than a little surprised to find him at my threshold, looking for my friendship, my services, and most puzzling of all—looking humbled.
Thing is, I’m on a boycott. Literally—I cut boys from my life. Permanently.
Problem is, Bane is not a boy, he is all man, and I’m falling, crashing, drowning in his sweet, perfect lies.

Jesse Carter
Hot as hell, cold as ice.
I wasn’t aware of her existence until a fat, juicy deal landed in my lap.
She’s a part of it, a little plaything to kill some time.
She is collateral, a means to an end, and a side-bonus for striking a deal with her oil tycoon stepdad.
More than anything, Jesse Carter is a tough nut to crack.
Little does she know, I have the teeth for it.

I enjoyed reading about the HotHoles from a slightly different perspective! And Bane fit right in, even if he's quite a bit younger. Which makes me wonder if he'll show up in the All Saints High series as well.
His story was more somber, as was that of Jesse. Her life was far from a dance of roses, and the way she was kept in the dark by some people made me root for her all theway.
