Review: Dark Restrained - Read it!

To my surprise, this book was dark, but tame when compared to the other two books in the series.  If you're looking for Dark, The Estate series will not disappoint!The continued story about the criminal underworld called The Estate this time features the story of Xander (second in charge of The Estate, BFF of Aaron and Maddy) and Hope (Assassin and sister of Honor).  The book gets right to the action from the start.  Hope's sister, Honor, has been taken and she must kill Aaron if she wants to see her sister returned.  Xander, who is a fierce protector of Aaron must deal with Hope as she attempts to kill Aaron.We are reunited with my favorite characters, Aaron (still dangerous and bad) and Maddy, throughout this book.  We learned more about Xander and some more details on how he came to The Estate as a child.  The drama happened everywhere in the book.  As with the other books, it was edgy just not as graphic.  Hope's character was strong willed and loyal.  While I wanted to slap her a couple of times, she got it together.  Xander, as always, I loved him.  There are some scenes in this book that made me walk away from reading to clear the images burned into my memory.  M.S. Willis can write dark!  I'm hooked and I can't wait until the next book in the series is released.  Excellent Book and Series!!
