I received a free copy of this book from Amulet/Abrams and Chronicle in exchange for an honest review.

Tourmaline Harris is the perfect princess of the Wardens - a motorcycle club where her dad is the president. But as Tourmaline struggles to deal with the guilt of her imprisoned mom, she begins to wonder how much she’s actually respected and what her father and his gang actually do. Tourmaline becomes friends with Virginia Campbell, a former pageant queen working for a crooked lawyer who wants her to spy on the Wardens.

I really enjoyed this book and all the characters involved. Both Tourmaline and Virginia were complex characters with deep feeling and emotions and secrets and how they connected was wonderful. I loved seeing how they stood up for each other and believed in each other, and were willing to fight for each other. They had different upbringings but underneath it all there was thread of similarity that bonded them together.

I loved the way the Wardens were so involved in the story and were a central point. I enjoyed Tourmaline exploring her role within the club and learning at what point she was the ‘princess’ and at what point she was a girl who was invisible. Her scattered emotions around the Wardens, her dad and what they really did and didn’t tell her was wonderful to watch.

The best thing about this book for me was the raw edge of attraction that blurred all the lines in the story for me. While both girls had their own missions, they both had a raw need to love and be loved and found it in Cash and Jason. I loved the description of their physical and emotional need from how Jason could flip strong, proud Virginia inside out to Tourmaline’s acceptance of Cash on the back of the bike and scooting closer to wrap her legs around him. There was so many great descriptions associated with these relationships and I loved, loved, loved them.

This book is gritty, edgy and full of feeling and emotion and not to mention great female friendship. 100% recommend.
