Under Locke

After becoming unemployed, Iris moves in with her brother and gets a job as a receptionist in Dex's tattoo shop. Being polar opposites, Iris and Dex are off to a rocky start.  That is, until the members of another bike club and the Croatian mafia show up to collect on a debt Iris's dad owes them. With her brother gone to look for him, Iris has to move in with Dex in order to stay safe. What could go wrong when a naive innocent pretty woman moves in with a hot dangerous grumpy man?
This was my third time reading Under Locke, and when reflecting on it, I found Dex to be too much of an asshole, and Iris was a bit too naive for my liking. And some of the humor is that of an 11-year-old boy. But don't get me wrong, I still love the book! I will probably read it again in the not-very-far future, but I think the characters in more recent Mariana Zapata books are more developed and likable.  The story itself is interesting, I like seeing the relationship development in Mariana Zapata's books going slowly from dislike to friendship to love. I think that is what makes me forgive all their personality flaws and root for them!
