Burner
Kim Jaesu was only fourteen when he was forced to kill someone. Twenty years later, he’s the leader of the Syndicate, one of Big Five criminal organisations in South Korea. At his side, is Jung Joonho, a man who’s been with him since his first step into a world of crime, a man known throughout the Underworld as a Demon to be feared, and uncontrollable.
After taking over as the head of the Syndicate, all Jaesu craved was peace and stability. But that peace is unattainable, with the Amerize Company encroaching onto Korean soil, already infiltrating the lands of the Japanese yakuza. The Amerize Company is newly the last of the Big Five, and they’re unwilling to join hands, when they can dominate. With word on the street of a mystery drug, and rumours of a new kind of technology that can control life and death, Jaesu is a few steps away from an all-out war. And in the shadows, lurks a group hell bent on trouble, and with a personal vendetta against Jaesu.
But Jaesu has Joonho at his side, with a long history between them. He may not know what they are to each other, but he can count on Joonho to do the one thing he does best—kill. And with a war coming, Jaesu needs all the help he can get.
Peace and power are synonymous, and Jaesu, he’s greedy to win.
Burner is set in South Korea, and is a male/male action romance, with a healthy dabble into the criminal underworld.

50/50
I wanted to like this book however it was very long and ended on a cliffhanger, which I really hate. The characters were interesting and there were many complex side stories but I was left with no conclusions or any satisfaction. I won’t be getting the next in the series.
