L.J. Shen gives us a dynamic story about a feisty, sassy heroine who comes off as innocent and naive and an anti-hero alpha male who has a reputation as "The Fixer" that no one dares to cross.This is my first book by Shen and I have to say that the writing is excellent. Her style is descriptive which makes you feel like your in the story and she seems to give just the right amount of details to keep you engaged without you losing interest. I will say that I enjoyed the banter between the hero and heroine. I liked that she stood up against him even though she was scared of what he was capable of. She kept her spine and didn't cower to every request. She realized he liked the situation just about as much as her and she couldn't figure out why he'd even go through this whole charade if he didn't want to be there.Sparrow Raynes is 22 years old and hasn't grown up with the best childhood. Her mother left when she was young and her dad worked for the mafia and was a drunk her whole life. She knows all about danger and the mafia because she grew up around it. She also grew up with the Hero - he's older than her but his reputation has always preceded him. He was the heir to the Irish mafia until his dad was murdered - Troy Brennan. After that, stories ran rampant about how he was going to avenge his father's death. And he may not be in the mafia, but she knew about his involvement in South Boston. He was loaded and still up to his neck in dirty deeds for the rich and famous in the city. He may look like a business man in suits but he really kept his hands dirty.Troy Brennan has many walls and layers to his character. There's the outside facade that everyone knows and fears or loathes.
