Dark Surrender
Not yet published
Expected 9 Sep 26I've spent years believing monsters like me don't deserve happy endings.
After all, I lost my wife to my father because I cheated and had a child outside of our marriage.
I lost my sons.
And somewhere along the way, I lost myself.
Now I'm married to Penelope, a woman I never loved, doing jobs I hate, living in a gilded prison of her creation.
But when she walks into my life, the woman who changes everything…
She wants me dead, and I’m okay with that.
I don’t wanna live like this anymore.
I’m done.
Exhausted.
Ready for it to be over.
Yet somehow she sees me. The real me. Beneath all the bullshit.
I don’t know what I did to deserve her, but there’s nothing I won’t do to become worthy of her love.
Even if I must die in the process.

I really thought Property of Necro was going to stay my favorite, but as much as I wanted to hate Dark, Dark Surrender officially took the top spot for me.
This book gives us such a deeper look into Dark’s life and who he really is. Is he still a prick? Absolutely. 😂 And honestly, watching him deal with the consequences of his choices being married to Penelope and becoming his father-in-law’s errand boy I defienlty felt he got what he deserved.
But Iris and her sister Dee completely stole the show for me. They are officially two of my favorite FMCs, and I especially loved Dee and her completely unhinged side. 😂 anyone that loves opossums and mu!der you know is going to be a fun character.
One of my favorite parts of the story was having three different people essentially fighting for the same thing while not realizing it. The secrets, misunderstandings, and chaos that came from that made it so much fun.
This book has exactly the kind of darkness and dark humor I love. It’s twisted, chaotic, funny at the worst possible moments, and full of characters who are questionable at best. Dark finally met his match in this one! Which fingers crossed Bink has some amazing fan art of Dee's trophies and opossums.
We also get appearances from characters from the other books, which I absolutely loved. Seeing how all of these stories and characters are connected makes the whole world even better.
I went into Dark Surrender fully prepared to hate Dark…and somehow came out with a new favorite book instead.

Dark is a complicated character. After Dark and Deceitful, he was so arrogant that he only thought of himself. He brought home a mistress and child then expected Kali to welcome him with open arms. He got his rude awakening when Sunshine stepped in. What does all of this mean? It means he has been one of my least favorite characters….. until now.
Dark is on assignment to take down the worst of the worst. Including his “wife” and “father in law” when a pair of unforgettable eyes throw him for a loop! He is fascinated by Iris. She wants nothing to do with him. Dark wants to pursue her as its love at first sight for him. Until she mistakes him for one of the worst of the worst. He finds himself in hot water quickly. But he can’t forget Iris. He does everything he can to keep her, then the unthinkable happens.
Bink had me laughing along with the characters, yelling oh no! A few times and cheering Dark on. I couldn’t put the book down. Finished in one night. You must read Dark and Deceitful as well as Sunshine and Sinful to understand the storyline. Definitely a Bink Cummings must read!!

I am finding it hard to articulate how much I loved this book. Dark was not a character that rivaled the swoony-ness of his father. I shouldn’t be surprised that Bink was able to steal my heart so completely.
Dark and Iris are two flawed and broken people. Each has a fractured past that has guided their futures; and yet even in their converging purposes, they are lost. Thrown together in the most unexpected of ways, Iris and Dark find a connection that is as earth shattering as it is redemptive.
Bink has once again woven a story of unexpected tenderness, biting humor, and high stakes action. This is a story that will break you even while it heals. I cannot recommend this highly enough; and if you are a lover of gritty, sensual, volatile love, then I implore you to read this when it releases on September 9th..
While this is an interconnected stand alone, I do think you get a fuller picture of Dark if you read the Sacred Sinners MC: Nomads duet as well as Property of Necro. As always, please check content warnings.

Dark Surrender has been a long time coming and it was absolutely worth the wait! This story went nothing like I thought it would. Dark was not one of my favorite characters at all!!! But somehow this author created this story that completely turned things around in the most unexpected way. It was deliciously dark in all the right places, warm and sweet when it needed to be and fantastically steamy in other places. This book did deal with some pretty heavy, dark subject matter so be aware of the trigger warnings before you start reading. Otherwise, grab a drink, kick back and enjoy the ride!

MILLION Star Read!! I have been waiting to read Dark Surrender since we got Sinful & Sunshine.. Dark my not have been my Fav way back when... but let me tell you.. I LOOOOOOVE him now. Bink you totally out did yourself with Dark.. Made me fall for him <3 and IRIS.. OMG QUEEN!!!
This book is dark and twisted.. its absolutely batshit crazy but I would not expect anything different from Bink.. You had me yelling and laughing and screaming all at the same time.. (If thats possible.)
Thank you soooooo much for the phenomenal read. I can not wait for the next one.

Goodness me so many emotions are involved in the reading of Dark and Iris’s story, which is phenomenal, I absolutely loved it ❤️❤️❤️ The plot this book is built on is brilliant, we have chaos, drama and danger, which I think is a must in MC books and both Dark and Iris have their own baggage to deal with but Bink tells the story like this couple is actually talking directly to us and that was so amazing. A definite page turner and very entertaining. 100% recommend this book to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed, you will be blown away 😎🖤

5*
Dark is struggling with the mess he's got involved with his current wife Penny & her father Harold are the worst the things they are involved in is evil.
Iris & Dee are used to helping the Savage sinners but not directly, when they abduct 3 people to get answers only Iris doesn't know who Dark is until its possibly too late.
Wow! An absolute fantastic story

As always, I get sucked right into Bink's books. I loved this book. I was mad when I thought Dark was gone. I loved Iris and Dee! I think Dee needs her own book. I'd also like a book about the wedding! I will be ordering the actual book to add to my others. This is a must read. If you haven't read Dark & Deceiptful and Sunshine & Sinful, read those first. Thus book is a 10 out of 10!

Absolutely loved it, I read it in less than a day. I had been a Dark fan anyway even though I shouldn't have been. It made me like him more. If your not a Dark fan you soon will be. I also loved that characters I already new made appearances. 10 out of 10 recommend.
