I enjoyed this book. It was very long but not in a boring way whatsoever. It probably could have been a little shorter but it reads so well and smoothly that you don't even notice the length. The author did such a good job at letting the reader get into the characters head that you could feel the sweetness of Iris and the frustration and anger from Dex. Even Sonny ... you could feel his love for his sister.This book is about Iris who has had to grow up very quickly and take on responsibilities that she wasn't yet ready for but ... she is a strong, loyal girl and steps up. Her brother, Will, Iris and her mother are left behind by her father. This effects her life greatly and at a time when she needed him. She loved her father and didnt understand how he could leave his kids - that he loved. So the mom is struggling and gets sick so Iris takes on the role of mothering Will. They move in with a relative after the mom dies and again Iris is still looking after Will and doing her best by working to help pay bills. When her realitive passes away its once again really hard on Iris because yet another person she loves has left. So with no money, laid off from her job and Will on his own way she seeks out her half brother, Sonny who is the strong, alpha male who is in a MC. Iris and Sonny have a strong bond and love for each other. He takes her in with no questions asked. He helps her get a job with his friend, Dex, who owns a tattoo shop and is also a MC member. Iris is a sweet, loving, good natured girl. She is really quick witted and funny. She is just adorable and a loveable character. She is nervous about working for Dex because well he isnt the nicest person around and has anger issues. Dex hires her, gives her a hard time, doesnt train her well and snaps at her when she asks a question. He is just mean to her. Dex has his own issues with anger and managing that anger but he is a beautiful, hot, alpha MC club memeber. So he gets some slack.But ... he is protective and loyal and those characterics will come out as you read this book.The story gets a little crazy when Iris' and Sonny's dad shows up needing money. The lenders are willing to hurt both Iris and Sonny so Sonny goes off to try to find the dad after he dissapears. Iris has some run ins with the lenders and its Dex to be the protector. The story goes on from there and you'll see how a friendship is formed.What I liked about this is the playful side of Iris and her humor. She actually brings out really good things in people. Her relationship with Dex (who she insists on calling Charlie once she finds out his real name - to bug his mostly) progresses slowly and solidly.You won't be dissapointed
