Bane

Naked surfer. Habitual pothead. A con, a liar, a thief, and a fraud.

Last I heard, he was extorting the rich and screwing their wives for a living.

Which is why I’m more than a little surprised to find him at my threshold, looking for my friendship, my services, and most puzzling of all - looking humbled.

Thing is, I’m on a boycott. Literally - cut boys from my life. Permanently.

Problem is, Bane is not a boy, he is all man, and I’m falling, crashing, drowning in his sweet, perfect lies.

Jesse Carter

Hot as hell, cold as ice.

I wasn’t aware of her existence until a fat, juicy deal landed in my lap.

She’s a part of it, a little plaything to kill some time.

She is collateral, a means to an end, and a side bonus for striking a deal with her oil tycoon stepdad.

More than anything, Jesse Carter is a tough nut to crack.

Little does she know, I have the f--king teeth for it.

I have been reading this series for the past two weeks and I can honestly say that I’m sad that there are no more stories to tell us. I really wish that Vaugn would’ve had his own story. I actually read the stories backwards. I picked up Luna‘s story first and then read Daria’s.

I didn’t think I would like Bane’s story because he wasn’t one of the original hotheads. I also am not into a lot of tattoos, but I do like Russians. It was nice to have Vicious in the story because Bane was a lot like him. I like the fact that they both had to save each other, even though Bane was hired to help Jesse.

It was a really sweet story. I love it when the bad guys lose.

Sad the Series Has Ended.

I just love this author! I'm not going to lie out of all of the series this was my least favorite, but by no means did I a dislike it. It was great!! I hope to hear more about Bane & Jesse like we do with the others in the series in the All Saints High Series. I love that Jesse is a strong self-sufficient woman, who saved herself in the end. Also that I brought sexual assault & the trauma it can cause to light in it. I would absolutely recommend, but with a trigger warning.

Definitely Recommend but Trigger Warning

I loved bane but it definitely lacked what vicious and scandalous had...still amazing though! Can’t get enough of this author.

LOVED BANE.

I truly loved this story, thou I will admit for me at least it felt like a slow begging but then it was just full of "wow really" moments this is about a strong heroine and the man who despite he's title's gave her his heart. as far as the performance at first the female protagonist wasn't as great but by the end she and the male voice actor did amazing bringing these characters to life.

I really enjoyed the narrators. I found myself in tears and at times laughter.
But I wish there wasn’t so much inner dialogue. I enjoy books when the characters are talking to each other instead of thinking in their heads all the time. All in all I enjoyed the book.

Sad funny naughty

The only thing I have to say is this author is amazing and her books are wonderful, sexy, heartbreaking, and full of love.

Amazing

i love a good alpha type male, but love them even more when they know how to let the women in their lives empower themselves. i was dubious about reading a standalone by a new to me author, but may have found a new fave.

loved it

Great story of coming back to life after a horrible tragedy. How she not only saved herself, but found a way to allow someone save her, too.

voice actors are good. They have great inflection when needed, etc.

My only complaint is the chapters don't match up to the Audible chapters... otherwise 5 stars. The Epilogue isn't even labeled as such.
