Tempting Fate (Black Shamrocks MC: Australia Book 1) by Bella Faust – Review by Tina Vega

Tempting Fate: a dark and angsty love triangle romance by Bella Faust
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The prequel isn’t a romance, but a deep dive into a psychopath’s mind where we hear his side of the story.  Think Criminal minds except worse. When the author gives you warnings about the triggers, please understand it isn’t just a line or a paragraph mentioning said triggers but pages of details. The kind of details that keep you up and make you keep the lights on.  With that said, I feel the prequel was necessary.  The author can spin a tale,  but what blew my mind was the way she navigated these dark waters.  I felt the gamut of emotions.  Third, this book is more of a dark romance but please be aware there are still triggers that come up as danger surrounds Lily once again.   Zeke and Lily’s relationship is complex as it layers over the past.  A past that starts to feel very “in the present”. The author’s understanding of the human mind and the way she presents it to us is very unique.  Her writing made an impression on me.  She wrenches emotions from the reader and is hardly breaking a sweat it seems. My compliments to the author!
