Ace by Harley Diamond Release and Review

This is a dark romance. You will want to heed the warnings in the beginning of the book because it will contain triggers for some readers. Janie is a girl who has been in love with her childhood best friend for as long as she can remember. Things go so bad though that she had to leave home and go to live in New York? She feels like Ace would never want to be with the ugly duckling when he could have anyone he wanted and I have to say he kind of proved her right. Now ten years have passed and Janie’s father has passed away and she has to go back home to plan his funeral and get his left affairs in order. Once she is back home and no matter how much she wants revenge since she is no longer the same girl who left home all these years ago and has grown into a swan she knows that that is not the way to go. However they do need to have a conversation to settle the bad blood between them from years ago that isn’t the only thing that is going on. There are also threats from the Russian mafia that are putting people in serious danger. Janie has a lot or fixing to do and she has a boyfriend too that she knows she doesn’t love and a ex boyfriend from college. What a mess right? I loved Janie. She is one of those female characters you just know that you could be best friends. She has fought hard all of her life to be where she wanted to be and I loved the empathetic side of her. Now Ace is a whole other can of warms. He put the B in brooding for sure. I sometimes wonder if it was worth it for Janie to let that man hold so much power over her not getting over him and leaving town. Padraig is the guy that every girl would love to call her man. And then you have Razr. If this guy cares about you he is going to be protective over you with his entire being. There are multiple characters in the book that you are going to love. It will break your heart at times but then have you on the edge of your seat the next. I really loved reading this book.
