Chased by Felicity Brandon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Chase is pure evil, he has to be to run the most notorious criminal gang in England but he has to questioned the is there any humanity in his soul but then Allegra comes into his life.

Chase is the leader of the most hideous criminal gang but although he demands the world and takes everything else with out question, one chance meeting makes him question himself and can does he have any humanity left in his soul to love.

Allegra is a law student minding her own business when she is almost run over by Chase, she feels the sparks from that minute but after she realises who he is, can they go there separate ways or is Allegra willing to submit to biggest gangster and become his property more than his equal.

I have to say if you are not into the darker side of life and are turned away by trafficking, degradation of people and especially violence then this may not be the book for you. I understand that this in not everybody’s cup of tea but if you truly read the story you will find a brilliantly, well written story with complex characters and nail biting twist and turns.

Is Chase a Barsteward, YES! is he evil YES! but I think this just makes for a more meaningful story, Allegra is a strong, intelligent young women who is the best character to address and fight against the bad behaviour of Chase. To see the turmoil for both of them as Chase has never met anyone who has openly defied him like she has which frustrates that he can not control her, let alone possess her and he has to try and deal with those emotions and has to learn to be more for her. Then also the dilemma that Allegra has that if she gives just a little bit to Chase will she lose her free will and become a piece of property and not an equal which is such an intriguing read.

I can’t wait to read the next book in this series and see where the next instalment sits.
