From USA Today bestseller Logan Chance comes a deliciously wicked dark romcom vigilante romance.
Poe Cameron doesn’t do obedience. He does revenge. But the mafia crime syndicate known as Goldenbell has his sister.
Kidnapped. Hidden. Alive only as long as Poe follows orders. Betray his vigilante crew, feed the syndicate intel, play the loyal attack dog… or they kill his sister.
Now Poe's undercover inside a trafficking ring he’s desperate to destroy, walking a razor-thin line between saving his sister and burning the entire operation to the ground.
Then he meets her. Orchid Lin.
Goldenbell’s enforcer. The woman who makes grown men obey with a smile and a threat. She doesn’t trust Poe, so she keeps him on a leash… in a safehouse with one bed and nowhere to run.
She wants him broken. Trained. Controlled.
Poe wants to bring Goldenbell down.
And if falling for the enemy is what it takes to make them obey?
So be it. He’ll obey long enough to get close, then he’ll make Goldenbell choke on every order they ever gave him.
*Make Them Obey is a high-heat, high-stakes dark romcom packed with forced proximity, one bed, vigilante justice, savage banter, and a hero who’ll burn the world down to save his sister.

"Make Them Obey" is the fifth book in the *Pretty Deadly Things* series. Poe finds himself with little choice but to follow orders, betraying his team at Maddox Security in an effort to save his sister. However, he is puzzled by Orchid; something about her facade seems off. The more time they spend together, the more he notices her mask slipping, which only intensifies his desire to uncover what is truly happening.
Orchid's role is to oversee Poe and ensure he stays on task, but she is also hiding a secret. As tailing him becomes more necessary, it grows increasingly difficult for her to keep this secret from Poe, especially as he starts to question their surroundings. The tension between Poe and Orchid is palpable, leading to explosive, steamy moments.
Their slow-burning romance is filled with action and mystery, creating an addictive suspense. Simultaneously, they both express their vulnerabilities and open up about their rare, true feelings, creating an emotional depth to their connection. With a surprising cliffhanger at the end, I am left on the edge of my seat, eagerly awaiting the next book in the series.

Make Them Obey by Logan Chance is a wild, high-stakes ride that blends dark romance, suspense, and razor-sharp chemistry into an absolutely addictive fifth installment of the Pretty Deadly Things series. Poe Cameron is forced into a brutal double game—betraying his vigilante crew to save his kidnapped sister while infiltrating a dangerous syndicate. His only oversight? Orchid Lin. Cold, controlled, and terrifyingly efficient, she’s the enforcer tasked with keeping him in line… and the one person he absolutely shouldn’t want. The tension between Poe and Orchid is electric from the start. Forced proximity, one bed, and constant power struggles turn every scene into a battle of wills and desire. Their enemies-to-lovers dynamic is messy, intense, and completely gripping, especially as trust becomes just as dangerous as attraction. What really stands out is the blend of action and emotional stakes—there’s real danger, real betrayal, and a romance that burns right through it all. The banter is sharp, the twists hit hard, and the cliffhanger leaves you absolutely reeling. Dark, sexy, suspenseful, and impossible to put down—this series just keeps getting better.
🖤📚 Make Them Obey is another addictive ride through the Pretty Deadly Things series. This is book five, and it delivers everything I love about this world: danger, obsession, emotional damage wrapped in expensive black clothing, and chemistry hot enough to set off smoke alarms. 🔥
Poe and Orchid completely consumed this story for me. Poe has that perfect dark, controlled energy that makes every scene feel heavy with tension, but Orchid refuses to be overshadowed. She pushes back, challenges him, and pulls emotions out of him he probably never wanted to face. Together, they’re chaos in couture. Every interaction feels loaded, whether it’s anger, attraction, vulnerability, or all three tangled together at once.
This series keeps proving why the Maddox Security world is so addictive. If you love morally gray characters, protective antiheroes, intense romance, and stories that feel equal parts dangerous and emotional, Make Them Obey absolutely belongs on your TBR. Poe and Orchid left claw marks on my brain in the best possible way. 🥀🗝️
Make Them Obey is the 5th book of the Pretty Deadly Things series. I'm really enjoying this series with the suspense, action, danger, heat and plot twists that you don't see coming!
The instant attraction building between Poe and Orchid with the love/hate relationship of captor and captive playing out provides the heat and spice that could disrupt the power structure between them. Their struggle with it conflicts with their objectives versus their desire for each other. The interesting dynamics of their relationship adds to the complexity of the story as Orchid is the one orchestrating Poe to "obey" her instructions to protect his sister while his team questions his loyalty.
There is a very big cliffhanger at the end that has me on edge waiting for the next book to find out what happens!
Thank you Logan Chance for an early copy and I'm sharing my voluntary opinion.
We're back with book 5 of the Pretty Deadly Things series, and this vigilante crew just keep getting hotter and hotter, and into more trouble then they care to admit. Poe Cameron is being stitched up and he's being blackmailed to go against his team, his babysitter / enforcer is the gorgeous Orchid Lin. She's cold, determined, intimidating and controlling in every aspect of her life, lets no one into those sky high walls she's built. The physical connection they share is palpable, and will most certainly get you hot under the collar! This one is all about falling for the enemy, trusting your instincts and literally no one else. High on angst and drama and the Serafina saga continues.
I voluntarily reviewed a free advance copy of this book provided by the author. The opinions expressed are my own.
Poe has been abducted by Orchid to hack some code for a crime organisation. He knows if he goes along with this he can secure the release of his sister, Enley who has been kidnapped. But once he starts hacking the system, he realises he is being tasked to hack into Maddox Security who he works for. He initially refuses but Orchid insists that it is the only way to save his sister. So he agrees to hack the system and feed the criminals dummy information. Some suspicious nosy neighbours threaten to expose their cover and as Poe learns more about Orchid he thinks she is also hiding something. Add to that the complication that their is intense chemistry between meaning that they can't resist each other and this makes for a very entertaining romantic suspense story.
I absolutely love this series!!! They just keep getting better and better. The characters are amazing and the storyline is brilliant. Logan Chance really created an unforgettable group of characters. This book is Poe and Orchids story and wow it’s incredible. Not to mention totally Hot 🔥, there chemistry is off the charts.
Poe’s sister is kidnapped and he is made to betray his friends and obey the enemy. Orchid is the enemy and the organization she works for has Poe’s sister. Put the attraction is undeniable, and Orchid is not who she seems. The book is will keep you on the edge of your seat and completely captivated.
This story as well as the rest of the series are must reads. It’s completely different from anything you’ve read.
As one story ends the next begins with Poe becoming a pawn in Seraphina's malicious plans. Things have taken a progressively dark turn and it has become personal for Poe with the kidnapping of his sister Enley. Orchid is Seraphina's enforcer, but she has secrets hidden deep.
Thrown together with lives depending on them, they fight their attraction to no avail, keeping their cover while doing Seraphina's bidding.
There are secrets and menacing hidden forces at work which culminate in an unexpected and explosive cliffhanger ending. Not best pleased about that, but keenly awaiting the continuation of this series with Render and Enley's story.
I gratefully received an complimentary copy of this book and this is my honest review.
Poe and Orchid's story is one that is filled with endless emotion throughout the book. They are both in positions that they cannot turn down due to the consequences each would face individually. I adore Orchid, she is a firecracker and Poe, this man is one of a kind for sure. The passion is on point and the storyline keeps us on our toes all the way through, you might think you know what will happen but you will be sorely mistaken. I will say that this story is one that will leave you hanging in the end saying "damn, I need more now. Why would you end this book this way?" but at the same time I love it because I cannot wait for what's to come next.
I would say this is the SPICIEST book of the series. Need some ice cold water after this one because Poe and Orchid are H.O.T hot!!🥵❤️🔥
We left off in the last book with Poe kidnapping Salem's dad. Turns out that Serafina is blackmailing him by holding his sister hostage. She wants Poe to hack a system, he just doesn't know what it is yet.
Orchid is his handler and their forced Proximity and having to pretend to be married to the neighbors is getting to them both. When Poe does what he's told he gets to be her "Good Boy" 😜.
But Orchid has secrets of her own that may jeopardize the whole mission. Does Poe's friends think he's turned to the dark side or will they find him and save him and his sister.
Didn't see that coming!! Poe and Orchid is the definition of enemies to lovers. He is held against his will by her in a safe house asking him to do the unthinkable. Poe's heart is torn in two as their attraction becomes all consuming and he tries to fight back against the enemy while Orchid's lines blur between obligation and passion.
This very intense and riveting suspense romance will have you holding your breath to the end and beyond. As the series continues the story takes turns you won't expect and will make you hungry for the next book.

Orchid and Poe's story turns the heat up, the danger, and the stakes! The vigilante crew keeps getting messier, hotter, and deeper into trouble they absolutely did not sign up for, and I have loved every second of it! I'm addicted to this series and can not wait for the next book!!
Make Them Obey is the 5th book in the Pretty Deadly Things series which should be read in order. Like the others, there's little to no humor in the plot, so if you're expecting a romantic comedy, you'll be disappointed. Instead, there's kidnapping, blackmail and imprisonment at the hands of various actors. Poe and Orchid's romance starts with adrenaline-fuelled attraction and ends with a love born of danger and hard-earned trust. Their story ends with a massive cliffhanger, which I am not a fan off! I received an early copy and am leaving this review voluntarily and honestly.
This book starts out strong and ends strong. In some parts it gets nerve wracking on what is going to happen. Poe and Orchid is falling hard for each other while each is thinking they are on wrong teams. A bit of mystery, suspense, nerve wracking like I said it a lot of surprises along the way. And a cliffhanger you don’t see coming. Logan Chance did a number with this one. You will actually love it. Be sure to read the first four so you know what is going on. This book and series will be a reread for me in the future. I received this as an arc and I am leaving my honest review
Following on from where the previous story ended, while the blurb gives enough away, it is better to have read book 4. Told in DUAL POV'S Poe and Orchid's tale is fast paced, with twists and turns, added heat, I was, much like the rest of the series, hooked from the start, and did enjoy how their story infolded, and it will be interesting to see how it all comes to a conclusion, especially with the Epilogue that's set up for the next book.
Reviewing for Rock Hard Romance by Vicki RHR RATING 5*/5
This is book 5 of the series amd would have to say one of the best. Poe and Orchid were everything i needed and more. This one had everything... danger, obsession, double crossing, plot twists, emotional damage, suspense, morally grey characters and antiheroes... but also plenty of chemistry, angst and attraction. I loved their instant attraction love/hate relationship. Their dynamics together just made thus one I couldnt put down. This one ends on a major cliffhanger that just has me super invested and wanting the next book now! Another amazing read by favourite author. A must read.
This is book number five in the series. We originally thought that Poe was a spy and betraying the organization. However we find out that his sister has been kidnapped and he'll do anything to keep her safe. He's taken to a house, with a tough as nails handler, to do some hacking. Nothing is as it seems, in this story. Orchid has secrets of her own. The plot twists will keep you on your toes. The ending with make you scream Thank you to Logan Chance for the advanced
A hot new book in the Pretty Deadly Things series. Poe has really met his match in Orchid. The push and pull between these two and the different power dynamics made sure this stood out. Loved all the plot twists & turns, drama & intrigue added together with plenty of spicy steamy scenes. There is a cliffhanger ending, which had me shouting out loud. Will definitely be grabbing the next in the series as soon as it’s available.
Poe is forced into doing things against his better judgment, betraying his people and not knowing what is going on with his sister. This story is only part of the bigger plot and what's coming as the cliffhanger had me shocked. The enemies to lovers vibe with Orchid added spice and an explosion of chemistry that kept me on edge. I can't wait for the next book.
I always thought this author's rom-coms were his best work, but I'm warming to these romantic suspense novels. He keeps you guessing right to the end. Who are the good guys? Can you really tell? Full of suspense and loads of surprises throughout. Good writing, tangled characters. Everything you could want!
The start of this story is intense and full of possibilities but I felt let down a little near the end, it was just too not credible. There were twists and turns and betrayal, who do you trust? Poe and Orchid stayed true but both were betrayed and then everything is left in disarray with that cliff hangerQ
WOW WOW WOW is all I can say. This one certainly kept you on your toes. But, the relationship between Poe and Orchid was one of interest. Serafina, is one smart cookie. Cannot wait for the next book, Make them pay. Thank you BookSprout for the advanced copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
OK not trying to spoil anything, but this book ends on a cliff hanger! So I view this as a public service.
Blackmail, angst, drama, family (both blood and found), the risks are high, push and pull between our Poe and Orchid leading to spicy times, kidnai, forced proximity and one bed can all be found inside.
5 stars, but now I'm impatiently waiting to see what's going to happen next.
Make Them Obey by Logan Chance was an intense, addictive read from start to finish! The chemistry between the characters was off the charts, and the story kept me hooked the entire time. Logan Chance delivers the perfect mix of suspense, steam, and emotion. I couldn’t put it down and can’t wait to read more from this author!
I am loving this series of books and all the characters and Poe and Orchid are no exception! I have so much to say but don’t want to give anything away! Trust me this is another fantastic Logan Chance book and you don’t want to miss out!
Poe and Orchid…..cliff hanger baby! I loved how the two of them couldn't resist each other despite the circumstances and also could see through the disguises. Found some aspects a little confusing but eventually things fell into place. Can't believe we have to wait to see how this ends!
I have liked this series but, I must admit, I didn't like this book as much as the others...but I'm not sure why!! It was a little repetitive in parts and BEWARE does end of a cliffhanger!! I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review
Wow! Wow! Wow! What an incredible story and fantastic characters. Poe is being blackmailed and made to betray his friends after his sister is kidnapped by the enemy. Orchid is entrusted with keeping Poe inline by the woman running the enemy organisation, until she gets what she wants. Poe & Orchid are fire🔥 Their attraction and undeniable chemistry is off the charts! This book is full of suspense, secrets and plenty of spice🥵 This is an amazing addition to what is already a phenomenal series.
