Review: Iron Crowne by CD Reiss
IRON CROWNE Olivia Monroe really, really dislikes Byron Crowne. And why shouldn't she? He's the epitome of everything she despises, using his wealth and charm to steamroll past environmental and city regulations just so he can own everything in sight. She didn't count on her body reacting so viscerally to him in person, though, and it's a problem. She can't be attracted to the man she's suing, can she?
When it becomes obvious that she simply can't resist the gorgeous asshole, though, and he can be a means to an end, she takes him up on his brand of dominance and pleasure. After all, it will get her what she wants, so why shouldn't she spend some time rolling around in the sheets with him?
But we all know that pleasure, whether it comes with a hefty dose of pain and dominance like Byron does, often times comes with feelings. Pesky little feelings. Feelings that it seems he might not reciprocate. So Olivia has a choice: stick with the plan or walk away and fulfill her dream on her own.
Iron Crowne is hot. Really hot. I can't say I liked either Byron or Olivia that much, hence the 4 rather than 5 stars, but I liked the story itself and found everything else in this world intriguing. From Byron's brokenness to Olivia's sass that hides her own brokenness, down to Byron's family. All very fascinating stuff. I will definitely be on the lookout for more in what I hope will be a series.
