How much do I love Tijan’s books? Let me count the ways! I love her female characters, so strong and full of vinegar and sass. They have strong moral codes and emotions, and they don’t like to cry but they do cry when it hurts too much. Her male characters initially feel like jerks, but as the story develops, you find they have hidden depths and sweet moments. Then the plots! All of them different, all addictive! She even makes a criminal sound sweet!
Jess and Trace are on opposite sides of the law. Jess is a parole officer and she loves her job. Trace is a hedge fund manager in Wall Street, but his Uncle Steph is the head of the West Mafia, so he has roots in the dirty business. He’s on the edge, not really into the Mafia but his uncle is slowly and relentlessly pulling him in. So Trace and Jess feel like a forbidden love but that is exactly what happens when they meet. The sparks and attraction is way too much to ignore. However, Jess, with her strong moral code, rejects his advances, denies her feelings, evades and evades, because she stays true to her beliefs. I love when she gives in because the feelings are just too strong. And I loved even more how strong Trace fell, how protective, how devoted he is to Jess’ wellbeing.
I loved this story and was incredibly impatient with the slow burn of their love story. It made sense, given their positions, and the many surprises that kept coming made their story that more fascinating. There’s a ton of emotions and a ton of hurt on both sides. Jess has a mother who hates her, a brother in jail and two men who were best friends of her parents who are like fathers to her. And in the end, it all comes out in a surprising and explosive end, just like I always expect from Tijan. Addictive and enthralling!
