Once he hunts her down,
He's never letting her go

She can feel his intense stares through her bedroom window, and she can smell his intoxicating scent when he's close. But every time she tries to catch him, he seems to disappear into the shadows. The only thing she knows for sure is that he wears a mask. A mask that hides a wicked scar running down his face but accentuates his startling green eyes.
She shouldn't revel in his dangerous attention, but she can't help herself. There's something about him that calls to her. Until her best friend and the only person she's ever been able to count on in her life, goes missing. Peyton has a feeling her masked stalker has something to do with it. After all, his sudden presence in her life can't be a coincidence. But instead of staying away from him, she has a set a trap, draw him out of hiding and somehow bring her best friend home.

Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
Saffron writes some of the most deliciously dark books and I love every one of them, but Roped…oh Roped took my darkness and made it happy!!
Peyton and her dark Phantom have a cat and mouse game happening, but when Peyton finally calls her monster out of the shadows the real game begins and Peyton realizes she’s part of a darker and more sinister plan than she originally thought.
This book has some of the events from book one layered in but the focus is solely on Peytin and her Phantom! Things go deeper though because the fight for freedom and for the Grayson’s to have what’s rightfully theirs isn’t over. Now Peyton must find a way to help those she loves while Rad, her dark, broody cowboy Phantom tries to keep everyone safe!
What I loved about this dark and dangerous romance is how Rad and Peyton became each others light. Even though Rad lives in the shadows something about Peyton calls to him and their banter or well her banter had me chuckling and hanging on to every moment!
Gah I could go on and on about this book! What I will say is that this series, these characters are Everything! There is something that just sucks you in and keeps you! I am so obsessed with this series but the healing and love between Rad and Peyton elevated them to my faves!
