A dangerous world of sex, lust and violence… All Noelle Cunningham has ever wanted is a life beyond–beyond the walls of Eden, where only the righteous are allowed to remain, and beyond her stiflingly restrictive existence as a councilman’s daughter. But only ruins lie outside the City, remnants of a society destroyed by solar storms decades earlier. The sectors surrounding Eden house the corrupt, the criminal–men like Jasper McCray, bootlegger and cage fighter. Jas clawed his way up from nothing to stand at the right hand of Sector Four’s ruthless leader, and he’ll defend the O’Kane gang with his life. But no fight ever prepared him for the exiled City girl who falls at his feet. Her innocence is undeniable, but so is their intense sexual attraction, and soon they’re crossing every boundary Noelle barely knew she had. But if she wants to belong to Jas, first she’ll have to open herself to a world where passion is power, and freedom is found in submission.

Listened for the audible romance challenge, category Dystopian. Really liked this one, will be listening to the rest of the series in the near future. It's fun how this challenge opens you up to sub genres in the romance genre you might normally not read or listen to so fast.
this will be the second time that I read the first 6 books of this series. I recommended this gem to a girlfriend of mine and decide I would read them again.
This is a really juicy , erotic read that keeps you interested with it's interesting , likable characters. All the Action , suspense and the drama that invades their lives.
I loved how Noelle starts off as a shy innocent girl and once she finds her own sense of freedom ,she becomes a strong independent woman , and no man ,including the man she falls for Jasper can take that from her ,even in a place like Eden or Sector four.
Jasper is a cage fighter , that will defend the O'Kane gang with his very life , but you could tell as soon as this ruthless man set eyes on Noelle , even knowing who her father is and where she came from that he was a goner . He will have her , but at his pace and without strings .
Lets face it all of these characters are Damn Hot in this book and I cant wait to read the whole series again to get to know them all over and finish out strong!
My very quick thoughts because I NEED to go start the novella right now. This book being focused on Seth and Kade was a misstep. Clay was the real star of the show. I loved him, I felt for him, I wanted him to be happy and both Seth and Kade did my boy Clay dirty this whole book. Kade was dumb and thought Clay betrayed him instead of just asking him what went down. Seth basically forced Clay to watch someone he loved fall in love with him so that must've hurt. He sacrificed everything for those two and I don't even like them together. Seth was a total spineless, annoying, damsel in distress. Kade was a typical obsessive serial killer. Normally I would be eating up a story like this but, if you look through my book highlights, I spend the entire story wishing we could focus on Clay. Kade and Clay had palpable tension and I felt their love. I also felt Jayce and Seth's love at the beginning. Seth and Kade being paired for this book was a mistake.
