Book Review: Connor's Claim (Body Count #2) by Jolie Vines

 

Blurb

***AN AMAZON NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING SERIES***

Please note this blurb contains spoilers for Arran's Obsession.

I tried everything to get his attention, but I invited in a monster.
After facing a threat to my life, I found myself kidnapped and locked away by the skeleton crew’s enforcer. Connor is feared. Respected. And obsessed with me.
He controls everything, right down to my pleasure. His rules dictate what I can and can’t touch. When I can and can’t wear clothes.
What’s strange is how happy I am.
From the outside, my old life appeared perfect, but my father’s iron grip had suffocated me. Now, in the hands of my captor, I can finally breathe.
With the body count racking up in Deadwater, I never want to leave my masked man’s protection. Even if caring for me might cause his downfall.
Without realising it, I’ve become Connor’s claim. But how long can it last when the secrets I keep threaten us both?

--

Connor’s Claim is the second book in the interconnected dark romance Body Count trilogy, featuring a murder mystery and a crew who will do anything to keep their women.

Tropes:

  • The unhinged tattooed enforcer and the mayor’s daughter
  • Dangerous play (including BC tampering)
  • Somno
  • Forced proximity
  • Throat tattoo, stabby implements, and something pierced

As with Arran’s book, check the TWs if you need to (the list is still just as long as … it should be, dirty girl).

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars - 

4 1/2 stars for me. I felt compelled to turn pages. The connection between Connor and Everly was strong despite all the bad that happened between them. He was protective but distant at first. Everly worked hard for her father, but I loved how she made friends quickly with Gen, Cassie, and even Alisha. As Connor and Everly worked through their feelings, situation, and dangers posed to Everly and the crew, I looked for clues as to how the mystery would end, who could it be. Overall, the story was good, steamy, and full of surprises. I can't wait for the next book.

I received an ARC, and this is my unsolicited review.
