This was the first book I've read from this series. It can totally be read as a standalone, by the way! The narration by Sebastian York certainly didn't hurt but the book would have been good for me even if I had to read it and not listen to it. There were books narrated by York that I have DNFed before (shocker, I know!) 
 The story is about this woman who is a daughter of this big mobster. She is sheltered all her life but dreams of traveling the world. Some shit goes down and she is required to go into hiding. A perfect opportunity to go to some place new and experience new things, right? 
 So where does she go? Well, Mardi Gras is happening so I guess New Orleans it is. She finds herself on the streets of Mardi Gras with her luggage and no place to stay, because, well, she didn't have time to book a hotel. #notsmart Not very safe either, bunch of drunks with grabby hands around. 
 Lucky her though, because hot tattoo artist to the rescue, everyone! This dude is broody and hot and a complete opposite of hers. But you know what they say... So he helps her out and they because friends. He'll show her around town, no problem. It's quite dangerous for her to go alone. Will she ever tell him who she is and what she's running from? 
 It's a pretty hot romance, I loved the characters. There were some secondary characters' appearances that made me want to read other books in the series. May be some day. :) Recommend to those who like romances with a bit of crime in them & broody tattooed bad boy heroes who don't fall in love easily.
