No one messes with the vipers!! we’re the vipers! The vipers strike, we will end them etc etc. There are a lot of repetitive words which give the impression the author has trouble articulating what’s in their head. star equals a bad book. I barely finished this book and I will never recommend anyone waste valuable book reading time on this book. roxy is the most nOt LiKe oThEr GiRLs mc i have read in a long while. she has silver hair, eDgY mAkEUp, and tAts. i know i said i was too lazy to get quotes but i just had to: Each connection has a slightly different flavour attached to it which only managed to showcase the whole individuality of this. I did have a favourite though, I adored Diesel and every time he called Roxy Little Bird I melted. Roxy is kidnapped after being sold by her father to the Vipers, four men who pretty much 'run the town'. They have a rivalry with the Triad that really doesn't inject that much excitement into the story. There's some attempt at a plot in this, but the flawed writing prevented me from remotely enjoying it.

Reverse Harem. I love this trope in books right now and love when the FMC has several MMCs as her love interests. I did like certain Vipers over others in the book, but I’m going to admit I liked them all. Ryder and Garrett were my favorites, but I liked Diesel and Kenzo, too.She doesn’t know her goddam birthday? Please tell me her sorry excuse for a father gets what’s coming to him. Hopefully at her hands. It’s a good long book but I just wish we got more of maybe 2 or 3 years ahead. Please K.A.Knight, if you could do a 2nd book it would make my year complete. And from myself? I learned it’s okay to love yourself. Even the darkest parts of you. No matter the shape, size, or weirdness you came with. Embrace your scars and never be ashamed to be who you are, because there is only one of you.” The emotional moments are just so good. She has them with every guy and each one is beautiful in its own way. Now I can’t imagine why I ever hated Ryder, how I thought D was a one dimensional maniac, Garrett was a grump.

Diesel: I think his name explains it all. And while I don’t think an affinity for knife play means that you are a psychopath, he is definitely a psychopath. A murderous one at that. Weirdly enough, I think the author tries to use him as comedic relief. I guess ths pretty much explains my thoughts. In a way this was good but I wish it had much more of a plot instead of being all rushed in the end or it would have turned out as a 5 star for me! Ryder is the leader, Kenzo is the fun one, Diesel is the homicidal maniac, and Garrett is the quiet muscle. Going into this I was absolutely ready to hate Diesel and love Kenzo. However, as we get the history of each of these characters I was surprised to figure out that both Diesel and Garrett are completely loveable. While I may not be into the same kinks as Diesel as a character I found him to be the kindest in the group.It was great to have such a strong female main character; it is clear from the start that she is is totally on their wavelength, and it was inspiring to see how she knew herself and recognised what she wanted without chapters of flip-flopping. Ryder and Kenzo are brothers. Ryder being the older of the two. Ryder is the leader of the Vipers and is cold and constantly calculating. He has always been the protector of his biological brother and now his group of formed brothers. Ryder assumes the weight of being the leader of the Vipers, he blames himself when things happens, and he tries to shelter his brothers even when they want to help him. While she never had any interest in becoming an author, storytelling which allowed her to escape to exciting and new lands was something she always loved. She started reading more and eventually decided to pursue a career as a fiction author. Each male here was so uniquely different all with such distinct personality traits. I loved how this built things up and was almost initially slow-burning in nature and the time that was taken with each connection here fully convincing me of the authenticity of the feelings involved. The man obsessed with bets and runs all the casinos in town but is low key a sweet heart. I don’t have it in me to diss him because he’s too 🌸🌙💞🥺

The spice actually was not what I expected for a RH/why choose/ mafia not mafia type gangish type book. Yeah, thee were some down and dirty deeds but honestly it could have been far more depraved and detailed. I almost felt it repetitive at times during their spicy scenes. Obviously, there are dark elements that our favorite crazy boy adds and they really didn’t do it for me but I wasn’t put off. Ryder: he’s your everyday boss dude who thinks wearing suits is a personality trait. Toxic masculinity x100000.the writing was worse than a lot of things i’ve read on wattpad. that’s saying something. wattpad is the central for horny teenagers with terrible writing, and yeaaa, this is worse. so. you get the idea. the author was trying to hard to make things sound good and to cuss alot and honestly it sounds like a worse version of a book i tried to write when i was younger and thought swearing was the coolest thing in the world. ummm yea it was that bad. deadass. i’d give you actual quotes from the book but i’m too lazy and can’t be bothered yeet.
