I am very much a black sheep when it comes to this book and I was surprised and very sad to have to DNF it. This was one of my highly anticipated books of 2016! There is magic, Russian culture and a magical duel to the death! It sounded so epic and wonderful and I was just so excited for this story.

I thought the set up was really interesting because while these crime families are making a lot of money, they are […]

It opens with Madison Brooks, the hottest celeb in town, getting taken. We then flash back in time to meet three characters who get hired to be club promoters — they each have their reasons for doing so. Money, career […]
