Dangerous Girl – Emma Tallon

Sometimes your enemies are closer than you think

Anna is finally happy. She’s rid of her abusive ex and she’s co-owner of London’s hottest new club, with her best friend Tanya. But she is worried about her boyfriend, Freddie. He’s keeping things from her. And he won’t tell her where he goes in the middle of the night.

Freddie is furious. A girl has gone missing from one of his clubs and the police are all over him. When a familiar face turns up and threatens him, he’s offered a deal – find the girl or Anna will be killed.

With time running out, Freddie risks everything to save Anna’s life. And if there’s one thing Freddie Tyler is known for, it’s that he never gives up. Not without a fight…

My Review of Dangerous Girl

(4 / 5)

So I make a resolution to never start a series without reading the first books first, and what do I grab as my next book? The second in a series!! GAH I can’t win! However in my defence it doesn’t say anywhere in the description that this is a sequel! And thankfully, I got by just fine not having read the first one. I didn’t even realise it was a sequel until I started looking into it after I had finished it!

So this story centres around Anna and Freddie, a happy couple in London. Anna runs a club and Freddie, well he is the head of a crime family. Anna doesn’t seem to care about the fact that her boyfriend is a criminal and occasionally murders people as he helped her out of a tricky situation with an ex boyfriend a few years prior. So when a girl goes missing outside one of Freddie’s clubs, he and Anna are dragged into a complete mess.

I really enjoyed this story. However I had a few problems with the characters. I find it hard to warm to characters that actively go about murdering people. Even if they only get the “bad guys”. So I found it hard to like the family. It was all fun and banter and brotherly love and then oh a bad guy, anger, shoot him in the head and only feel slightly bad about it, and then put the blame on everyone else…

However, it was fun. A fun escape. The twists were all predictable, but it was still fun to experience them.

The writing was great, the atmosphere changed from light to heavy well. It was entertaining.
