Blurb from Goodreads <\/p>\n

She\u2019s got her man. But does she know what he\u2019s hiding?<\/p>\n

Young, feisty, and beautiful, heads turn wherever Danica Campbell goes, even if she only has eyes for her fianc\u00e9, Ricky Fyfe. He might be thirty years older than her, but his job as a big-time club owner in Glasgow means he can afford to give Danica the life she deserves.<\/p>\n

Danica knows he has a history \u2013 after all, his adult daughter Teigan works at the club \u2013 and she knows that Teigan\u2019s mum, Elle, disappeared decades ago. It doesn\u2019t matter, because Danica knows that Ricky will do anything for her.<\/p>\n

Until the day that a woman walks into their lives \u2013 and everything that Danica knew about Ricky falls to pieces. Faced with the reality of Ricky\u2019s past, Danica\u2019s got some hard truths to swallow. But what Ricky doesn\u2019t know that Danica might just be keeping some secrets of her own \u2013 and when he discovers them, their happy ever after might just come to a shocking end\u2026<\/p>\n

My Review <\/p>\n

Happy publication day! So meet Elle, she thought she knew what she was getting into with Ricky, it isn’t until she is committed and has his baby she realises how trapped she is. Ricky is cruel, violent, aggressive, gaslighting and a big name in the business of drugs and violence. Fast forward to present day, Elle is long gone, abandoned her newborn baby Teigan all those years ago, and Teigan she is now her dads right hand man. He has a new wifey to be, Danica, same age as Teigan, everything looks great for Ricky until things start going wrong in his business, the two women on his life don’t get on and it seems someone is out to get him. Who would dare, Ricky is top of his game, a killer, a hot head and someone is going to pay!<\/p>\n

Well the opening chapter, prologue sorry, pulls you right in, danger and skullduggery from the start! From there on in we have gaslighting, dv, addiction, murder secrets, relationships, drugs and one of my faves, actions and consequences, a bit of everything.<\/p>\n

Short chapters, fast paced, some real shady shocking characters\/actions, murder, coercion, gaslighting it has a bit of everything. If you haven’t read Kane before you can absolutely start here, bit of a wild ride, 4.5\/5.\n<\/p>\n
