Riley Thompson’s biggest problem used to be keeping O’Malley’s bar running while hiding her creative accounting from the IRS. But when four devastatingly attractive—and lethally dangerous—men make her an offer she literally can’t refuse, her life takes a turn straight into “what the hell am I doing?” territory.
Roman, Sebastian, Miles, and Kieran aren’t just the city’s most powerful crime lords—they’re the Crimson Brotherhood, and they’ve decided Riley’s particular talents make her the perfect addition to their organization. Between knife-fighting lessons that definitely aren’t OSHA-approved and trying to keep her growing feelings for more than one of the men under control (Spoiler she fails spectacularly at that last part), Riley discovers her mysterious past might be exactly what painted a target on her back.
When violence erupts and secrets start spilling like cheap beer, Riley must decide if she’s ready to embrace both the darkness and the light buried within her. Because in this game of shadows and steel, love might be the deadliest weapon of all. Sometimes the family you choose comes with throwing knives and questionable morals. And sometimes that is exactly the family you need.
Dangerous? More like delicious!! This book is so fun and impossible to put down with the gorgeous metaphors and banter. The juxtaposition between characters makes for a wild ride where you’ll never find a lull. Den of Vipers fans should immediately add to TBR. The spice is unique and so well written, I’d crawl on my knees for any of these men. The twist and mystery elements are soo intriguing. Very impatiently waiting for book 2!!
I absolutely loved this book! The FMC Riley is wonderful! Her internal monologues are so funny and witty! I love how sarcastic she is! I honestly laughed out loud a lot while reading this. And the guys! Wow. Roman, Sebastian, Miles and Kieran… they are amazing! The spicy scenes are on point! The only thing I hated was the ending. Because I WANT MORE!! This is a new favorite! I totally recommend for anyone who likes “why choose” and/or mafia type books! Trust me, it’s fantastic!
Wow! What a great book! I have to say I just love Riley and how she is such a bada**. The way the Brotherhood takes her in and starts awakening her memories of her past and her skills. I love each of the brothers for their different sides. I think Miles is my favorite but I have to say all of them are perfect characters. I can’t believe the ending!!! Ugh now we have to wait for the next book!!!
Kept me on my toes and wanting more!! Great book!!
Wow this is a masterpiece! The tension the drama the absolute passion!! The author makes you fall in love with each character. Great character building! Perfectly portioned plot and spice. Highly recommend!!
