Dangerous Temptation by Giana Darling
5.0

Dangerous Temptation is addicting and captivating from the start. The prologue completely sucks you in and as the story continues takes you further down the rabbit hole.

Despite her young age, I love Bianca. She is mature for only being 17 and is a pseudo mother to her 7 year old brother, Brandon. The love she has for him and how protective she is over him is strong. It is really them against the world, only now they are under the care of Tiernan.

Tiernan is the black sheep of the Morelli family, he really has no relationship with his siblings. I love that he has created his own family in a sense and they are people that he would trust wit his life. People he would also trust to watch over Bianca and her brother. He says he is a monster, yet there is something deep down in him that shows he truly isn’t as monstrous as he may think.

The relationship between Bianca and Tiernan is different. He is her guardian, but here is also some dislike and also some scoring chemistry beneath the surface. I love that Bianca isn’t scared of him, she continually pushes his buttons. I love that Tiernan is also pushes Bianca buttons. These two are bringing out different sides to each other that neither of them realized they had.

This is book one of a duet and does end on a cliffhanger. I can’t wait to see where things go with these two and the continued war between the Morelli and Constantine families.

If you’re looking for a dark, forbidden, age gap romance this is one to check out.
