Review of Book One - Lust

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.

But who said the devil was a he?

In my world, she was out to cause havoc on all our lives.

She’ll use the one thing I care most about to control me—force me into her Elite world, filled with sin, deceit, and power. And under her spell, I’ll lead a sinister brotherhood of seven at one of the most prestigious universities in New Orleans.

Seven tasks set forth by the devil herself, promising nothing less than the forbidden fruit of power. What they don’t understand is it will all end in bloodshed and regret.

They call me the alpha. The one in charge. The one with pride bigger than any task I could be given. And my pride won’t let me be anywhere but at the top of the food chain until she gives me what I truly want.

My task is Meghan Benedict.

She’s too pure for me to touch, too good for me to ruin—and the only thing standing in my way to freedom.

Accept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the weak...they’re for The Elite.

As they say, pride comes before the fall.

I am Mason Blackwell.

I am Pride.

My Review

★★★★☆

Hollyfield has created another sinner for me to fall in love with!

I love how intertwined these stories are. The characters stay consistent and the plots are continuing as they become fully developed. This story was about Pride and all the ways that Mason had to swallow his in order to survive.

Mason suffered so much. Those he was supposed to trust, those responsible for his safety, were the very ones to make him unsafe. It was all he could do to protect his little sister, no matter the cost. So being at the beck and call of a she-devil would be the price he'd pay to ensure his sister was okay. Luckily it takes him no time at all to gain the advantage and with the help of an old friend and some new ones, he just might make the most of it.

I loved Mason. So much. I loved his loyalty, his strength, his vulnerability, his ethical code, etc. He was just great. The heroine of this story, Meghan, was an absolute sweetheart with a spicy hidden personality. This girl was HAWT!! And these two together were a kinky, wet dream. Muy caliente 🔥🔥🔥

Wrath is next and I'm so excited to see where this story goes. I love these guys so much already and getting all of these different perspectives on their personalities only fuels my hunger.
