Tortured Duchess: An age gap, daddy kink, mafia light, organized crime, he falls immediately, darkish romance

Holy freaking shizzballs people!! Are you ready for more from the Adair Legacy?!! I know I am but nothing prepared me for Hadley's book. She is and has always been the protector of the girls. She is balls to the walls, don't mess with me and mine! Something that Ashton witnesses first hand and that's it, game over. Hadley's walls are high, she is drowning and her one family don't even realise. But Ashton sees her and he wants all of her. Gah!!!!! *whispers to self, no damn spoilers!! Gah!!! There is so much I could say, but I won't *zips lips. You NEED this book! And not just because of the OGs too! This author has absolutely smashed this........and my FEELS!

When I read this book, I smiled the whole time. Hadley is her own person, she's feisty, protective and in your face. She knows who she is but deep down she want that deep abiding obssessive type of love she witnessed from her parents. Because of who she is and how she is, she doesn't believe she'll get that, and that's where Daddy Ashton comes in. He's exactly who she needs in her life, he's not afraid of her background or who she's related to. They took to each other instantly, their verbal spar is adorable and funny. In the midst of danger Ashton is reaffirmed in his love and decisions about Hadley, he knows without her in his life, he won't have a life. Even though this book is about the second generation, I'm overjoyed with how the OG's are in the background ready and willing to lend a helping hand if it's needed. I love how author KL Donn incorporated every character, it doesn't take away from the main characters of this book. Thank you for this phenomenal read.

Phenomenal storyline and characters with threats, kidnapping, jealousy and so much more. Hadley has things she needs to work through and overcome. Ashton sees her and immediately wants to claim her but knows he has to prove to her that he wants to be with her forever. Ashton knows what he wants and won't back down from anyone including Hadley's intimidating family. This fast paced read has twists and turns but eventually Ashton and Hadley get their HEA ending. Once I started reading this book, I was enthralled until the very end.
