Brutal Conquest: Brutal Hearts, Book 2
Lilith Vincent
by Pelican Freak
INTERESTING APPROACH...
This was a fun, fast-paced read that took some interesting approaches:
First of all, it was refreshing to read mafia book where the family actually likes each other—I’m so used to betrayal, people selling off their daughters, and things along those lines that this was unexpected throughout. I kept waiting for things to turn much darker, and they really didn’t. Props to Vincent for showing this totally *can* work in this trope—I enjoyed it!
As for the steamy bits, she manage to pack a lot of k!nks into not a lot of space and still managed to pretty much make it feel natural. You’d think it’d look forced, reading that, but it really didn’t.
The pseudo-incest thing took a bit of getting used to, but it really did work well, ultimately. There’s a bit of action and suspense, a lot of drama, strong family vibes, lots of loyalty and wholesomeness on this front and a fair bit of violence. It also manages to be sweet in just the right moments—expertly woven.
Audio:
Truly perfect. 5 stars.
