Asa by Jay Crownover

Asa (The Marked Men, #6)

by Jay Crownover

The sixth book in the scorching hot NEW YORK TIMES bestselling MARKED MEN New Adult series

Royal Hastings has been a cop, first and foremost, for most of her adult life. So when a call-out goes wrong and her partner ends up in hospital, she finds herself suspended from the job, indefinitely. With too much time on her hands and a heavy load of guilt weighing her down, she seeks solace in oblivion – otherwise known as a golden-eyed bartender with a rap sheet as long as her arm.

Asa Cross has spent his live on the wrong side of the law, but a near death experience has left him rebuilding his life and relationships. But being good is tougher than it seems – especially when being bad looks as good as Royal does.

On paper, the cop and the con seemed doomed to heartbreak – but when love has stolen your heart, how can you walk away?

This is difficult for me to rate. I LOVED Rule. I LOVED Jet. I liked Rome and Rowdy and Nash. I struggled to really feel any connection with Asa and Royal. First, I felt like Royal was a bit desperate and needy chasing after Asa all the time. It wasn't like the determined, get your man kind of chasing. And even though Asa is a good person now, I struggled to really 'get' him. I just felt really disconnected from this book. The best parts were when the other characters made a cameo and that is not what you want from a book. I love Jay Crownover and will always have a special love for this series but this book just didn't click for me.
