my ARC of Property of the Bad Boy by Vanessa Waltz

This book is set in the world that the book Married to the Bad Boy is in. 
We meet Jack and he is drunk as the book starts when he is drunk. He is going thru a rough period and he is drunk and in a rough place in regards to his brother’s murder. He is in a bar looking for women to sleep with. He looks for women to sleep with, to take away his pain, when he meets Beatrice- she is sweet-she is innocent and she pushes all of his buttons. The sex is intense and he has to push he out of his life. He hated to do it but that is his life. 

Jack is forced to marry a girl-a MC biker –to give him an alibi and to keep the peace in the mafia family and the police off all involved for the jewel heist /murder. Jack just wants his brother’s murderer to find peace. When Jack is summoned to pick the girl he is to” marry” he finds Bea, the girl he met from the club the other night.

Beatrice is young, yearns to be loved, is fiery – She sees Jack and something about him calls to her. She feels the lure of him and felt bad for misleading him when they initially met. But from the moment after that, everything was on the level and she met him toe to toe.

Their meeting and getting together changed their lives and the course of things in the MC bikers and Mafia. There are many twists and turns in this story. OMG the zings that go flying-too funny. Bea is a force to be reckoned with. You think Bea is supposedly so tough , because she grew up with the MC all her life…but think again. There is a hidden depth to her, a fragility. Jack is in deep pain over his brother’s death and he is hurting so bad that he is going about trying to kill anyone he thinks did the murder, beating all and taking names last. I loved how Jack was so blasé about how he was just going to kill his brother’s murderer even If it meant making the “boss” mad. The humor in this book in times of darkness was like a bright light is a mark the author having a deft hand , a true craft when writing and she has a knack. This is a great story and I love her Mafia/MC stories; this is another great story. Jack and Bea have had a rough time but their coming together, even being made to ends up being the best thing because they need each other.I want to say so much but I do not want to give away spoilers—Just know Jack needs to save his wife and unborn baby before its too late. Does he or doesn’t he? The ending is the best. The author does it again and the twist was one I didn’t see coming. Kudos to the author for another great story in this series.
