I've had this book for a while and never knew it was in any way connected to the Last Riders series.  If I had known I would have read it sooner, not that reading it after Shades Fall affected anything.  I can say that I liked this story but it did frustrate me too.  I can appreciate a dominant man but it all depends on how he's written.  For instance, I loved Shade in Shade's Fall.  The way he is is just him - dark, sexy and badass.  Kaden on the other hand had me talking to myself.  I'm sure he's probably sexy as hell but I couldn't see it.  I just wanted to break his face and then turn around and shake the crap out of Sawyer for putting up with him!  I kept thinking that he's coming off like he wants to be her father instead of her lover.  There was nothing sexy about the spankings he gave her.  He treated her like she was a bad child which just goes to a troubling place considering it leads to them having sex.  Still, I love the friendship between Sawyer and Vida and I'm looking forward to seeing how it all plays out.
