"HARD WAY is no-holds-barred kink!"

Fresh Fiction Review

Hard Way
Katie Porter

Reviewed by Annie Tegelan

Romance Erotica Sensual | Romance Contemporary

In book four of the Vegas Top Gun series, Katie Porter delivers a story that hits harder than all the ones before it. For eight years, U.S. Air Force Captain Liam "Dash" Christiansen has been married to his wife, Sunita. But after very long separations due to work, they have grown apart as couples do sometimes.

When Sunita returns after a particularly long trip, she drops a bomb and tells Dash that she wants a divorce and that she has another man waiting for her. Dash cannot believe his ears. Anger boils through his veins and he channels it through his lust for his wife.

As a caution to all readers, I feel that I must warn all that there is violent sex in this book. Although all the sex is consensual, some scenes will appear forced since Sunita enjoys that kind of kink. I suggest that if you are sensitive to images of rape, then perhaps this book may not be for you. Forced seduction, name-calling and the rape fantasy are the dominant kink in HARD WAY.

While the violent sex didn't bother me so much, it was the lack of storyline that disappointed me about this book. The beginning setup felt weak to me and I never felt the connection between Dash and Sunny. Porter spends so much time on the sex that it overpowers the characters, leaving no room to explore Dash and Sunny's emotions outside of the anger in the bedroom.

HARD WAY is no-holds-barred kink, but unfortunately, it didn't sparkle for me this time around.

SUMMARY

No holds barred. No mercy. No going back…

Vegas Top Guns, Book 4

Throughout their eight-year marriage, U.S. Air Force Captain Liam “Dash” Christiansen and his wife, Sunita, stayed strong through long separations. However Sunny’s new job as a high-profile legal advisor puts a severe strain on their enduring bond.

Her abrupt announcement that she wants a divorce is like a missile to Dash’s gut—but her confession that she’s met another man is what unleashes his shocking passion. Sunny is surprised and nearly repulsed by her body’s reaction to Dash’s animalistic attempt at complete possession. That doesn’t stop her from craving more.

With Sunny’s whispered approval, their sex life explodes. Not only does Dash’s aggression tap into dark fantasies, she’s hopeful that now, at last, she’ll get what she’s always wanted from her devil-may-care, don’t-give-a-damn husband. Something honest and candid. Something real.

Yet fiery, carnal encounters won’t heal two long-broken hearts. Their bodies are finally speaking the same forbidden language, but it will take more than taboo desires to learn each other for the first time—and to save a marriage that’s only just begun.

Warning: Time to put the kidding aside. Although 100% consensual between a husband and wife, this book contains violent sex that, in some scenes, will appear forced. Readers sensitive to rape scenarios should proceed with caution.
