3.5⭐

This is an odd one - it had somewhat predictable plot, but damn it worked for me. Had just enough of everything good to out-weigh the things that didn't work and writing also did work for me.. like protective and obsessive hero, insta lust but not insta love, MC plot whilst not being too MC.. heroine who is not a total doormat but also doesn't fight ridiculously long. Also, for once h was not kidnapped at the end! Also, the 🔥 was gooooood!

Can't decide if to round up or down... Decimal system anyone..😔

Story: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Angst: 😱😱
Smexy: 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Absolutely loved Dominic's story! Emmy's life takes a complete180 the day she rescues Dominic's youngest son from would be killers. The unassuming middle school music teacher is kidnapped and held by Dominic "for her own safety" because, well... no good deed, right? 😅😅.

These guys in this MC, lo!. Not sure what's in the drinking water, but they're all falling fast and hard and doing whatever they can to breed them up, lol. Dominic proves he's just as nuts as Roman (book 1&2) when it comes to his girl. This series has been fantastic. Well written, fast paced, and tons of hot smexy, lol. If you're A fan of OTT jealous/possessive fictional men, this series will definitely check your boxes! Can't wait to read the last two!

This is the first book I have read by V. T. Do and I look forward to reading more.
Dominic is the prez of the Kings Men MC club and a single father on top of it all. Harsh and ruthless in his work life but loving and compassionate in his home life with his sons. When one of his sons, Braxton, is attacked and a petite teacher tries to help him, Dominic goes into protective dad mode.
Emmy, the young teacher, finds herself in a precarious situation and tries hard to escape her situation but fails miserably.
Great story, wonderful characters, and a beautiful happy ending 💜

3.5 stars - I really liked the bulldozer hero who carried around the sweet h all the time. I liked how he insisted on feeding her and dressing her and just taking care of her all the time. He’s all aggressively caring. 👍🏻👍🏻 it doesn’t get 4-stars because it felt a little too surface. This book needed some angst and drama.

These keep getting better! Dominic and Emmy❤️ Dominic is the mc president and Emmy is his youngest sons music teacher. One day Emmy sees a boy she recognizes, being chased on his bicycle by a black unmarked car. She is in her car and tells him jump in. She tries to loose these men while being shot at and she succeeds. They dump her car and find a run down house to hide. Emmy is terrified but stays strong for the boy. Well turns out the boy she saved is Dominic’s son. He has tracking devices in all of his shoes so as soon as he knows he is missing the search is on!
When Dominic and his men find them Emmy attempts to attack Dominic to protect boy, not knowing he isn’t the bad guys. This is where our story begins…
Dominic has to protect Emmy now, since the bad guys know who she is, and he is not above drugging her and kidnapping her to get her to his place😈It doesn’t take long before he claims her as MINE…I love these OTT JP biker guys❤️Emmy finally comes around and they are so great together. He loves to feed her, dress her and may have a bit of a breeding kink🍆💦What better way to keep her than get her pregnant🤷🏻‍♀️ Dominic is dealing with a traitor in his club and until he finds out who his biggest concern is keeping his boys and Emmy safe…not really any OW drama
…he takes Emmy to his bar one night and one of the club chicks comes up to him but he doesn’t even acknowledge her or take his eyes off Emmy. Emmy is pissed and tries to take off but Dominic catches her and reminds her who she belongs to in his office…he has no interest in anyone else SHE IS IT FOR HIM!!!
I loved this book and can’t wait for Kai’s story, Dominic’s oldest son!!

Series? Y.

Cliffhanger? N.

HEA/HFN? Y.

Triggers- Violence, language, explicit erotic content, dub con

Tropes- Captor/Captive, 1%, Breeding Kink.

Emmy is leaving a music lesson on her way she’s sees one of her students Braxton Madden and with a black car following him. She ends up saving him and going on the run to an abandoned barn. Dominic the president of the King’s Men Motorcycle Club is looking for his son when his older son Kai says they got a location. They get Emmy and Braxton and Braxton is sent to his Aunt in New Zealand for the summer and Emmy is held at Dominic’s house for safety. She hates him but they are both extremely attracted to each other. Can these two opposite lives ever fit together? I love Dominic and Emmy so much. The supporting characters are amazing. Just remember I’m keeping you love that.

THIS IS ONE LIT FREAKING PAGE TURNER.
Dominic and Emmy will dig their claws in you and won't let go even after you've turned the last page.
I'm still not over all the Madness, Possessiveness and Passion I read between Dominic and Emmy. 😻😻😻

So we already know Dominic from Roman and Ryleigh's book (their book is definitely a must read if you enjoy Stalker vibes Possessive hero) as he's the Prez of King's Men MC. He has two kids from his young age and his kids are his entire world.

Dominic rules Sacramento through his MC with an iron fist and is one strong, fierce leader.
But when his younger son suddenly doesn't return home, he's ready to turn everything upside down.

Though, never did he expect to be instantly obsessed with a quiet music school teacher who also does something that earns her his protection for life.

Dominic is one crazy man who becomes so obsessed with Emmy that he not only takes her but wants her completely as his and only his.

My oh my... Though, the way he convinces her every time with Mutliple Os.. Ohhh... Will set the pages aflame and had me fanning and gasping over their on fire 𝖲𝖤𝖷𝖸 times that were so full of intensity and raw possessiveness that it will make you yearn to have a man like Dominic too. 🔥🔥🥵🥵🌶️🌶️

But there's also some thing happening within the Club that maybe connected to destroying everything Dominic has worked for so far and the worst is that defect might be from inside too.

I have to say the suspense was equally freaking amazing as was the Romance part which had me turning the pages like crazy.
And when we finally learn the truth, I was shocked and so didn't see that coming.

I FREAKING DEVOURED THIS ONE COMPLETELY. AHHH.. STILL NOT OVER DOMINIC AND EMMY TAKING ME ALONGWITH THEM ON THIS WILD WILD RIDE. LOVED FREAKING LOVED THIS ONE. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Another dark and twisted addition to the Kings Men Series.

Quote:📖
“You’re the woman I am 🤬 obsessed with. The woman I can’t let go. So I am doing what I told you I would do from the very start. I’m keeping you. Now, come for me, wildcat. Be a good girl and come.”

Thoughts: 💡
This book is dark, and Dominic Madden makes other OTT heros look like courteous gentlemen. I have read a lot of dark romance novels, but this had me squirming in a few places. I wouldn’t say that it delved heavily into the forced sex category, but there was a clear disregard for the word no. There’s a lot of spanking, a feeding and a breeding fetish, and the MMC tends to treat the FMC like a living doll.
The plot was fairly interesting and fast paced; but the sub-plot with all the issues in the club didn’t get as much attention as the romantic development between the MCs. Almost like this was a romance novel *gasp*.
Emmy and Dominic had an interesting dynamic. Dominic was extremely possessive and manipulated a few circumstances to get Emmy where he wanted. Emmy was smart with a tortured backstory and reacted appropriately to the abrupt changes she faced.
The writing was fun if a bit awkward in places, but I was still able to follow along with the story. The sequence of events makes sense, and the smut scenes are prevalent.

Fun Bits:
⚜️ Kinky (including breeding & feeding kinks)
⚜️ Interesting Plot
⚜️ Lots of Backstory
⚜️ Fun Family & Friend Dynamics

Important Note:✨
Pay attention to the CW, this is a story with a breeding kink, and a super possessive MMC.
This is book 3 in a series of standalones.

If you have read the first book in the series, no need to read this one. Almost same dialogues, almost same story, almost same kinks and almost same ending. 2 stars for putting the effort of typing/writing the book again. lol

My Review: I’m really loving this MC series so far. It’s very well written, fast-paced, and has swoon-worthy alphas that fall hard and fast for their beautiful women. Dominic is the ultimate leader and rules with an iron fist. He protects the ones he loves fiercely; from his brothers, to his sons, to now the love of his life, Emmy. Dominic is so taken with Emmy that he decides to keep her and protect her even if she disagrees, which makes for some super spicy moments. They had a slower burn to their romance but once it got going it was so satisfying. Loved it!

Emmy is a 6th-grade music teacher and was monitoring the halls as the kids were leaving the school and she opened her mouth to reprimand a student for his language but decided since it was the last day of school why bother especially since it was Braxton Madden and he had probably heard much worse at home.

Braxton was the youngest son of Dominic Madden. The notorious president of the King's Men MC Club. She had never had reason to meet Braxton's father, but she had seen the gorgeous man at school functions and heard the other teachers gossiping. She may be fascinated with him, but there was a difference between a bad boy and a dangerous man so she avoided him at all costs.

Emmy had just finished a piano lesson and noticed a boy on a bicycle fly by. She could swear she recognized him. As she pulls her car into the street and gets closer she realizes that is Braxton Madden and when he looks back at her she realizes his face is filled with terror. Something hits her car and when she looks into the rearview mirror she sees why.

There is a black car racing towards her with a man leaning out of the passenger window...with a gun and they are aiming it right at Braxton. She sped up and yelled for him to get in her car. There is no way she is letting them kill him.

Dominic couldn't imagine anything more freeing than hitting the open road on his motorcycle with one of his brothers. When a cop pulls out behind them he and Axel glance at each other with a nod and head in separate directions. Dominic is almost disappointed when the cop gives chase after Axel, but they accomplished their goal.

He nods at the semi that blows past him. They had distracted the cop to give the semi transporting product enough time to cross state lines. Dominic has spent the last decade as president of the King's Men MC Club and had loyal men across the world.

He owned bars, nightclubs, restaurants and salons that catered to the rich, but most served as a front to launder money for his drug transportation business. Men across the country trusted him to make sure their products made it to their destination and they paid dearly for the service.

I loved this book! It is very well written and the characters are fully developed and relatable. Although this book can be read as a standalone I highly suggest that you start from the beginning with Roman & Ryleigh's duet. All of the characters are recurring and books 1 & 2 give you tons of background material to truly understand these men and the King's Men MC Club.

Emmy has only been in Sacramento for a short time leaving everything in her life behind in Nevada after her future was taken away from her. Dominic rules California with a tight fist and no one is stupid enough to cross him. But Dominic has a soft spot...he loves his sons and will do anything to protect them.

This book is action-packed from word one. It is full of danger, intrigue, suspense and smoking hot. Dominic first had intended to protect the woman who saved his son's life, but it didn't take long for her to become his obsession and he would do anything to keep her tied to his side.

Highly recommend this book and can't wait for Micah's story and hopefully, the Four Horsemen will also get stories.

Monster is the third book in the King's Men MC series. I have read the first two, but readers new to the series will be fine starting with this book, as it is a standalone novel. Roman's story has been told; now it is Dominic's turn. It is an action-filled dark romance featuring possessive love, steamy, erotic scenes, and family loyalty.

President of the King's Men, Dominic, is a cold-hearted, ruthless bastard with a tiny soft spot for his family. He will stop at nothing to protect those he loves. When an abduction attempt on his youngest son is thwarted by a fascinating little wildcat of a woman with a heart of gold, he must protect her from the men trying to take him down. She may not like his ways or how he takes over her life, but he has quickly become obsessed, and there's no way he's letting her go, not now, not ever. He simply has to convince her that it is what she wants too. Even monsters can find love.

Emmy, on the other hand, has experienced that no good deed goes unpunished. Now a domineering MC president has kidnapped her and locked her in his house (and bed) for her own good while he searches for the men behind the attack. He may be smoking hot, and she gets flustered whenever he's around, but kidnapping is not ok… at first…

V. T. Do knows how to write romance! She makes something you know is wrong still feel so right. She also has a knack for creating pictures with words and building emotions, if that makes sense. And the erotic parts of the book can make any reader hot and bothered.

Emmy grows and develops a little through the story; she is closed off and prefers solitude but dares to become vulnerable and open up to friends and love. I felt one element in the story was left up in the air regarding Emmy: her hands and playing music.

Not much personal growth when it comes to Dominic. He is already capable of love, as he loves his sons, and his personality doesn't change because of his passion for Emmy. He is still the same monster, just with one more person to protect.

(minor spoilers in the next part)

As a reader of dark romance in general, you usually overlook some significant reality flaws and evil actions to focus on the romance. There are car chases, shoot-outs, and kidnappings, but no police or other law officials are in sight. And that's fine; you know what you signed up for. But it is possible to cross a line here if the reader has to overlook too many logical breaches or if a bunch of coincidences fits into the plot perfectly. The latter is what bugged me in this story. For instance:

Despite some minor issues on my part, I thoroughly enjoyed this story and will keep an eye out for the next book in the series.

A piano teacher saves the youngest son of the infamous King’s Men president.

Emmy’s a middle school music teacher who saves one of her students from getting killed. Once his father finds them, she thinks the worst has passed, but then the MC president decides to keep her. He says he’s protecting her, but what if what she needed protection from was him and how he made her feel?

Dominic wants to find the people who dared go after his son. He knows there is a traitor in his club and he won’t stop until he finds them. Keeping the music teacher was impulsive, but now he doesn’t think he can let her go once all of this is over. He won’t. She’s his.

Goodreads-Quotes-4

This is the third book in the King’s Men series. It tells the story of the single father and MC president, Dominic and the small music teacher who got dragged into his chaotic world. This is a dark story with captive romance, suspense, MC clubs, and an age gap. It has a lot of triggers, so make sure you read them before diving into this book.

Goodreads-Quotes-3

I have to say Dominic was intriguing. He seemed emotionless, but when I saw things from his pov, it showed that I was wrong about him. He would do anything for his kids and the people he considered family. A ruthless MC president with a past that has shaped him.

Goodreads-Quotes-2

Emmy’s dreams turned into dust one night and it left her trying to gather the pieces left. Dominic says he could give her the world, but she can’t trust his words when he is keeping her locked in his house. But as she slowly sees a side of him that shows he’s capable of feelings, she falls for the monster.

Goodreads-Quotes-1

I loved reading this dark romance book and plan to read the other books in this series. The side characters are interesting and I want to see the other ruthless men fall for their girls. I’m sure I’ll never get bored reading a V.T. Do book because the way each one is written makes you fall in love with each character and the plot hooks you in.

If you are a fan of dark MC romances, then this book is for you.

Okay, I'm just going to say this. I FREAKING LOVE DOMINIC! Yes, he is a hot bad boy with obsessive tendencies and likes to be in charge...but add on how much he loves his boys and I MELTED. I just loved everything about him and his tattoos and the fact that he can give tattoos and his love for his children and his desire to have more children and how protective he is. I also really liked Emmy! I loved her background and how she is a good girl who just wanted to be a classical piano player, but she was broken. She is protective as well and feisty and a stressy depressy mess. It was a bit weird that she was only a year older than Dominic's son, I do wish she were just a little bit older than him than that, but with Dominic only being 15 when Kai was born, it wasn't a huge age gap between the two of them to begin with so it didn't bug me very much!

I am hoping that Blue will get a book because he just seems like a sweet, fun character. I know that Kai and Micah both have books, so Blue is my next choice for these boys HEAs. Also, hear me out, what if Jude is actually alive? What if he survived and was taken by whoever those guys were because of who his adoptive family was? We don't know much about his bio parents, but what if they were in some deep shit or powerful people or something and he was taken because he was in both worlds? And the hand they found in the river could have still been his, or it could have been another teenager's that was identified as his by accident bc of characteristics or something.... It could happen.

I will say that it feels a bit like the same characters with different names from the first book, with just slightly different backgrounds, but I still enjoyed it! There were a lot of typos though, and even though they didn't take me out of the story, it was a bit annoying. That is why it doesn't get a full 4⭐ from me. But I will keep reading because I still want all my other boys to find their HEAs!

Rating: 3.5⭐

Not the music teacher. I don’t know what it is about music teachers that just make them seem more innocent and defenseless. You know a science teacher would burn you alive and record their findings, but the music teacher? Throw her sheet music at you like kunais? Wildcats indeed. Monster is the third book in the King’s Men MC series and can be read as a standalone.

Spice level (1-5): 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Kink level (1-3): ⛓️ butt stuff, breeding kink, Mine

What happens when the school’s music teacher saves the son of the president of the local MC? She gets taken “for her protection” and is now claimed as his without her say-so. What could possibly go wrong with a start like that?

I would recommend Monster to fans of polar opposites. If you like MC romances, a resilient FMC, a possessive af MMC, lots of spice, tattoos, a dangerous man loving an innocent woman, age gap, young single dad, bad past relationships, breeding, “nothing between us”, being held captive, you’ll love Monster. This book does contain violence, attempted murder, MC business, being held against your will, etc. For the readers that love falling for the monster this one is for you!

Warning: Reading Monster may make you want to save a child in need in hopes his hot bad boy dad will abduct you and make you his. May make you want to get a tattoo. May make you rethink your career choices. May make you want to visit New Zealand. May make you think about bulletproofing your car. May make you think you need an upgrade. Read responsibly.

SO GOOD!!! I love this series and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Dominic’s story. And let me tell you I have now fallen head over heels for Dominic and his possessiveness and filthy dirty talk. He is one hell of a fierce, dominant, kinky, and utterly sexy President (and daddy). I just could not get enough of this man!

Emmy is such a sweet, innocent and slightly broken young woman who finds herself in quite the predicament with the King’s Men MC. Never in her life would she guess that by saving Dominic’s son, that she would be stuck in the clutches of his father. Dominic takes one look at the tiny wildcat of a woman and vouches to never let her go.

You would think these two were too dissimilar, but opposites do attract and the attraction between these two was palpable, highly explosive and toe curling. It was definitely a hate/love beginning that turned into something utterly more! And I was all for it and couldn’t wait for the explosions to start going off. HOT HOT HOT!!!!

This was a fantastic story that had me hooked right from the start and I never wanted it to end. I could not get enough of all the characters, they made me laugh, scream and melt into a puddle of goo. The story is filled with excitement, suspense, murder, mayhem, some violence and a whole lot of deliciously steamy moments. I loved every minute of it and can’t wait for the next book in the series.

My first impression on this book, it wasn't as dark as I prefer. But it doesn't make it less good.

I love every second of it.

Dominic crazyness over his wildcat. How determined he is to make her his from the first time they meet all the way to orgasm fest to make her compliant his word, not mine😂) and his breeding kink that just mean having lots of practice😂💃 and they were super steamy practices😉

And Emmy was bulldozed easily by him. From rescuing his youngest son, being captivate in his orgasm fest then have to accept her pregnancy miserably .. I'm being sarcastic at my best here for hello...its Dominic the King of mayhem who only need to give a woman THAT look and bam! Spontaneous orgasm! 😂💃

The MC life in this book feels like only in background for me. There's no compound full of club bunnies and wild party every night. The darkness of the MC only come full force at the end and it wasn't even a full chapter. Making the end feels too short when I thought, with the way the story goes from the start, it would be cliffy ending.

This is my first book from the author. And although it's a stand-alone, there are spoiler from previous couple in previous books. So I'm gonna suggest you read in order, just to enjoy the whole ride.

Overall, Dominic is mine! 😋💃😂.

When a good deed turns into being drugged and abducted under the guise of being protected, Emmy's simple life as a Middle School Music teacher is turned upside down by her Monster.

Overall, I enjoyed the story and characters but at times the Chapter began to feel like the same thing written over and over almost making the reader feel the boredom Emmy felt being held captive and unable to leave the house.

After Emmy risked her life by saving The King's Men MC President's son, Dominic makes the decision to kidnap her and keep her in his house for her safety but eventually turned into his obsession. Emmy has the typical anger/hatred towards the dominant man that has her trapped in his house and in his bedroom but it ultimately turns into lust and then a loving HEA ending.

Outside of the Emmy/Dominic lovestory, some of the lingering questions are finally brought to light about the rats within the MC and a new business arrangement with The Four Horseman of Chicago. It was great to see characters from earlier in the series being incorporated into this book and ultimately adding to their stories and tying things together.

Thanks VT and Bed books and pr.

This is the third book in the Kings men MC series and follows the king himself. The leader of them all Dominic Madden.

Dominic is the leader of the Kings Men. He lads with an iron fist and protects eveything and everyone he loves. His sons being top of that list. So when one of his sons is targeted Dominic is straight into protective mode.

Emmy is a wildcat or Dominic's wildcat at least. She saved Braxton when men tried to take him. She protected him and in doing so was now under the protection of Dominic and the Kings Men. Emmy is firstly and stronger than she gives herself credit for. So when she is practically abducted for her own protection she stands her ground and tries to make sure she is still herself.

Falling for the monster himself was never on Emmys wish list. She fought it with everything she had but the Monster had a soft loving side and a sexy as son aide that she just couldn't resist.

This story has plenty of twist, turns, ups and downs. The story is gripping and the characters draw you in and keep you wanting to know more. I loved this story it was heartfelt, dangerous and sinful. Loved it.

My Overall Rating is 5 💋💋💋💋💋
My Character Rating is 5 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My Msut Rating is 2 🍆🍆
My Angat Rating is 3 😬😬😬

Okay so I am biased here. This has all the tropes I love. An MC story with an obsessive, possessive alpha President - Dominic - and a talented, resourceful, but in many ways broken heroine - Emmy.

Their meeting is unique - a delicious unusual twist out of the norm for MC romances - and my lord Emmy can handle a car ... no more spoilers.

Staggeringly, brooding, handsome and tatted Dominic takes one look at our Emmy and sparks - and maybe cupid's arrows - fly. He falls hard for his 'Wildcat'

Of course this is the King's Men MC so true to form Dominic has zero boundaries and will do what it takes to get and keep the girl and I freely admit he is so hot!!

I haven't read anything by this author but I will now. You get smexy with plot, winner winner.

My only criticism was that SO much was covered in the final stages of the book I got whiplash. It is a satisfyingly long book and the ending didn't need to be so rushed.

I loved Dominic- certainly fodder for a book boyfriend.

An excellent read!.

Another huge 4 star read from V.T Do!I spent what was a miserable day outside reading this.
I have been fortunate enough to read this series so far as ARC's and I'm very grateful, as I'm loving the story. Each book can be read as a stand alone, but it is far better to read as a series in order to get the full extent of the story.
This time it's the boss man's turn to find true love! Something he's never experienced before, so it's all new feelings to him. We learn a lot about Dominic, with his story, and I'm hoping maybe somewhere along the line, his little sister might forgive him and return to also find her true love?? (She intrigued me. I need more!)

Emmy is exactly what mr possessive Dominic doesn't know he needs in his life! and she slots in perfectly with the "family" after saving Braxton, Dominic's youngest son from gun weilding crazies.

I'm sure hoping I'll be successful for an ARC of the next installment of this great series! Definitely looking forward to more.

I couldn't resist when I saw this ARC on BookSirens, even though I knew it would mess with my emotions. It took me some time to read and process the intense feelings I experienced while reading, as this type of book made me uncomfortable.
This book is full of trigger warnings and red flags for me, but I surprisingly enjoyed it. Everything about Dominic Madden goes against my beliefs - he's a twisted monster who shows love, care, and protection in the most unusual ways. Despite his flawed ways of dealing with people and emotions, he genuinely cares and loves. Emmy is kept against her will, but she starts developing feelings for the monster. I felt her moral dilemma and her struggles to resist. It's the same way I felt while reading this book.
Despite everything, I ended up liking the Monster because everything in this book just works, even his possessiveness. I'm eagerly looking forward to reading Kay's story.

WHERE can i find a dominic of my own??? seriously, he is absolutely obsessed with his kids + woman, + dedicated to everyone that he cares about. he’s easily one of my favourite book boyfriends for so many reasons, but one of the main ones is how much he cares about his girl’s….uh…. “happiness” 😏😉.
And Emmy!! She is so brave, feisty and determined. Even after everything, she still has a beautiful soul. I didn’t love her as much as i loved dominic, but she wasn’t too bad.
Overall, I found this to be an okay read. Not a bad book, not a bad storyline, and not horribly written. I enjoyed reading it, and hope that others do as well.

**SPOILERS**

Dominic is the president of the "Kings Men MC" when his youngest son, Braxton, is targeted to be kidnapped. Emmy, the local music teacher, see's him being chased and gets him in her car to make a run for it, luckily they are able to escape and hideout. When Dominic finds them, he decides to keep Emmy (because why not?) to keep her safe. During this time, he and Emmy fall in love, all while trying to figure out who betrayed him and planned the kidnapping of his son. He ends up faking his death to smoke out the rats.

Personally I love how aware he is of everything Emmy does, he even ends up figuring out that she's pregnant (with twins, surprise) and of course she did because whenever they had sex he always had to push his cum back inside. But anyway, he even realized she was having contractions that she's trying to hide while he times them. Leave it to the teacher to bring the monster to his knees. And it doesn't hurt that they have good sexual chemistry. 🥵

MC Leader Falls For School Music Teacher

RATING: 3.5/5

Emmy is a school teacher who saves an MC leader’s son from bad men chasing them. Dominic, to ensure additional protection, keeps Emmy c@p/t¡ve. During their time together, Dominic falls hard for her.

She has a mysterious past, though; some information does not come up on Dominic investigation of her, but when it does, Dominic gets involved.

Regarding spice, it is a bit of a slow burn to me. It builds up, and things spike at about the 80% mark—but that’s just based on what I’m used to. That’s not to say they don’t do other things until then—they do. The br33d¡ng sch/m¡nk is there—that is, they have unprotected sch/m3x, and it dawns on Emmy that Dominic is trying to get her pregnant on purpose.

As far as the story goes, I did enjoy it. I liked how protective Dominic was towards her once he found out about her past and stepped in.

The main reason I like MC romances is for the bromances and this book has none. There's literally kids this guy has that never come up besides how much he loves them. Not once does he ask his kids how they feel about a stepmom after him raising them by himself for so long. And he's hurt that his sister won't talk to him anymore because that lifestyle cost her her son. How about some empathy, dude. Instead of she chose to leave everything behind, she is trying to heal away from the triggers. Nothing about any relationship besides the romantic comes up.

Also, this woman is a teacher and not once is it mentioned what happens with her job. Just the piano lessons are mentioned, but even then you're telling me no one is going to notice that a very punctual, reliable person just stopped showing up? The least he could've done was text her employers from her phone.

He also has a background check done on her but doesn't know who her first boyfriend is. I'm rolling my eyes so hard.
