***5 'Chase the Sunrise' Stars*** 
 Holy. Hell. (Understatement of the year) 
 This book will rip you to shreds and make you bleed and want to make others bleed, numerous times, and then it will slowly start to stitch you back up with the help of a sweet, Hangmen style sweet (let's not get shit twisted ~ this is a Tillie Cole dark romance now), romance and the Hangmen and their women. 
 GAH. Where to start? What to say? What not to say? So bloody difficult, but it must get done. 
 I ended up adoring AK and Phebe. AK may be one of The Psycho Trio, but as we all know what's on the surface doesn't always match what is going on inside and AK has a lot going on inside and it made me bleed for him and yet admire him even more. Finding out about his past and seeing how it shaped him into one of the few people in the universe that has the ability to reign in Vike and Flame brought out all the feels. I bled for Phebe. Everything that she was put through by the Order and Meister was simply brutall. But to watch as she clawed her way out showed just how strong she was. Their journey is brutal on so many levels, but as they continued to collide all I could see was how perfect they were for each other. They tore each other apart and then helped each other heal and grow stronger than they ever were before. 
 And as for the rest of the Hangmen and their women that we've come to know and love ~ there is no skimping on all that goodness. Viking, Flame and even Lil Ash are front and center in this journey and if you didn't love them before, you will now. Though Viking...that man...I just...when he finally gets a book we're all in for a hell of a ride. We also get to hang out with a few of the other brothers that haven't had too much page time and I seriously want more. And for those who want to know, Rider is in this one and I still have nothin' but love the man. 
 I think I've said this in every review I've done for a Tillie Cole dark romance, the woman goes big. This is balls to the wall, no apologies given, in your face reading. There is no sugarcoating anything, not the dark and not the sweet ~ and, yes there is sweet mixed in. So if you have triggers then move right on past these books, though I will say you are missing out on one of the best dark romances out there. But if not, or you want to give it a go, then don't start with this one. Go back to It Ain't Me, Babe to get the full experience and for the love all that is holy do NOT skip Deep Redemption. Don't do it. You'll be sorry. It's an amazing read and, as far as I'm concerned, must be read to truly understand all that goes on in this one. We get a few teases as to what will possibly be coming next for the Hangmen and I cannot wait to see where Ms. Cole will be taking us next!
