Series – Undeniable
Hero – ‘Hawk’ James Alexander Young (Luca Bulochev unsure of spelling, as I listened via audio)
Heroine – Dorothy Kelley
Listened to audio narrated well by Tetiana Sokolov.
Hawk has been in hiding since his mafia boss father was killed. Living off the streets, Deuce took him in and he’s been in hiding every since. He’s been in love with Dorothy for a long time but their relationship, or lack thereof is complicated.
Much of their story has been revealed in previous books, so a chunk of this book may feel like stuff you’ve already read as the details are refreshed in this book but here’s a bit of a run down.
*SPOILERY*
Dorothy got pregnant as a teenager and married young, nto a loveless marriage. When she met Jace, he charmed the panties right off her and she become a club mother, working at the club cooking and cleaning. Only thing is, Jace was married too, with lots of promises to leave his wife, Dorothy divorces but ends up being Jaces side piece, since he wouldn’t leave his wife! After drinking too much one night Dorothy falls into Hawk’s bed and he blackmails her to keep her in his bed. She ends up pregnant, telling all it was Jace’s baby to keep her secrets. Jace’s wife lost her mind and shot Dorothy, nearly killing her and the baby, but wait for it…. it wasn’t even Jace’s baby it was Hawk’s! While she recovered and many events in between she moves out to California with her son. Hawk claimed his son, and visits as often as he can. That takes us to where this book picks up.
After being unable to reach Hawk for several days, she calls the club worried and it turns out Hawk was in danger. Hawk’s true background gets revealed, and deals are brokered but not before Hawk gets hurt. With all of this going on Dorothy realizes just how much Hawk means to her and she wants him back.
They don’t have a conventional HEA but they do get their HEA. We also get part of ZZ and Jace’s story but it’s very abbreviated. Some parts of this book felt disjointed, or cut off before it was finished, leaving me wondering if it was intentional or weird editing. Even with all of that I was happy to see Jace and Dorothy get their HEA.
