Boston Belles - Villain

Product Information

My love for Cillian was never in any doubt, even with his extraordinary alpha-holeness as seen in The Hunter; magnify it a few hundred times and you have his own book, with his POV. She is the air he needs to live and breathe and has always been the only thing to make him feel the beating of his own heart. There were a lot of excellent moments: her standing up to him, all the while being the softness and light he never knew he craved; him having a garden inspired by her, making a cloud for her, etc. Instead of giving him the cameo he deserved, she gave Hunter so much page screen and my brain cells self destructed every time he opened his mouth to make some dumb fart joke. Their connection is so intense, sparks fly between them every time they are together, my Tablet almost makes spontaneous combustion, and their banter is off the charts, still give me goosebumps from just remembering, pure magic, fire and feeling.

I mean it's great that LJ wants to include things like that into her books, but if you do it, at least do it right. Shen just gave us the Hades-Persephone retelling of my dreams with this book, that I didn’t even know I wanted until recently when the blurb was revealed.

If you've read any books from Leigh before, then you know to expect a twist or two outside of the romance at hand, and this one has them in spades. Cillain Fitzpatrick and Persephone Penrose give this greek myth a twist that is unique, powerful and deeply moving.

However, I feel like his condition wasn’t talked about much in the present, as in I KNOW the condition used to get triggered when he felt emotions and that’s why he stopped feeling all together. And I was kind of okay with Persephone going to Cillian again and again even though after sex he would completely close off and leave. Cillian, *suspira*, pasé del odio al amor con él a lo largo de toda la historia, es peor que Vicious, Troy y Celian juntos, los destronó a todos, tan frío, tan cruel, tan despiadado, pero conforme avanza la historia avanza, vemos capas y capas en su personalidad y, a medida que pasan los capítulos, mis sentimientos cambiaron y me enamoré de él.

I love everything about them both and applaud Shen once again for drafting characters that seep into our hearts and souls and never find their way out. When other kids stayed awake at night fearing the pointy-toothed beast hiding in their closet, I longed to see mine. But as we delve deeper chapter by chapter we see another side of him and it's a side that left me utterly breathless. As promised, this series takes us into the glittering, gritty world of Boston royalty and staggering wealth. Our girl's hockey program was developed with the purpose of elevating our players skill level from an early age.
