That was awesome!

Despite the setting throwing me because at 18 in Ireland your either in college or Uni & definitely don't wear a uniform, I loved it.

It reminded me of one of my favourite reads bully.

So much angst and one hell of a take no shit Irish girl with attitude which is what attracted Dominic and the only thing that got this fighter weak at the knees.

Loved all the characters the story and the boys,swoon, great fast paced recommend read. ...more

"Dominic wants her, and what Dominic wants, Dominic gets."

This story takes place in Dublin, Ireland and the dialect is true to the story's origin. Words are not spelled wrong and the editing is spot on. The language is just different for some of us.. Also on another note, to all those who are giving negative reviews for language and content seriously shame on you. The author warned you right in the book blurb in Amazon AND Goodreads AND the very first fucking page of the book. Do not punish this kickass debut novel for your inability to read what the author put out there.

Bronagh (pronounced Bro-nah) "Bee" Murphy is nearly 18 and has been under the guardianship of her older sister, Branna, for the past mine years. Both their parents died, which left her a quiet loner at school. That all changes when the Slater brothers descend on her small town. The two youngest are twin boys - Damien (white blonde hair) and Dominic "Nico" (dark brown hair) who are in Bee's year. American Slater twins arrive - Damien (white blonde hair) and Dominic (dark hair). Dominic BLOWS UP Bee's carefully crafted life. Dominic and Bee's "relationship" is FUCKED UP. He starts to bully her and she either tells or hits him in defense.

"He put his hand on what's mine, don't fucking tell me I don't have something to prove."

Dominic comes to Bee's defense after the complete asshole, Jason, puts his hands on her. (It happens to be her 18th birthday too!) Damien roars at Dominic to stop fighting when Bee gets hurt in the process. Bee runs from Dominic since her mind is expecting whiplash - just earlier in the day he called her ugly and then he calls her his. Dominic pales when he learns he hit his "pretty girl." Bee finds out there are more Slater brothers - Ryder, Alec and Kane. She openly gawks at his brothers which gets a growl in response from Dominic.

"I won't ever leave you. That's something you should know about me, baby. Once you're mine, I won't ever let you go. I'm a stubborn prick eighty percent of the time, so even if you want to leave me, I still wouldn't let it happen."

The mystery surrounding the brothers relocation to Ireland is quite shocking. They are loyal to each other and now Branna and Bee are in the mix. Give this story a chance.

Cliffhanger – no (book 1 of series)

Let me start by saying that I loved this book the first few chapters in. I had this grin on my face the whole time and I enjoyed it tremendously. A few chapters in I started becoming annoyed with all the fights (outside the ring). Every single chapter someone got a busted lip, broken hand, busted eye. Then she goes to the hospital and again another fight breaks out inside the hospital. It just goes on and on and on. And I was like ENOUGH ALREADY. I liked Bronnagh in the beginning, nothing wrong ...more
