*Chefs Kiss* Callie Hart does it again with the 3rd installment of her Crooked Sinners series. I knew from the glimpses we saw of Pax and Presley in the first two books that I would be enthralled by this one. I love how complicated they both are and Callie's writing is amazing as always. She is a pro at getting you invested in her characters right from the get-go and really making the world feel real and grounded no matter what her characters get up to.
I loved seeing how Pax and Presley interacted and grew and misunderstood and communicated... We've seen snippets of their history in the other two books so it was just so satisfying to see how those pieces played into their interactions now that they had the spotlight. Presley so clearly had a lot more going on when we meet her in Riot House and Riot Act; she was kind and insightful and creative and bold. Meanwhile, Pax has always been the most enigmatic Riot House boy and we've only gotten small flashes of what's going on in that shaved head of his. I knew after Riot House that I couldn't wait for his story and the moment he calls Presley by her FULL name in Riot Act I was beside myself with anticipation.
Callie Hart writes amazing characters that you can't help but feel connected with. Also, the easter eggs in this book for Callie's other works are a treat. They're so subtle and blend in so well it's just delightful when you realize "hey, wait a second....". As soon as I finished Riot Act I immediately started it over again. then found myself going back to Riot House and Riot Act...

Daddy Pax is everything
Where do I even start with this book?Pax Davis is my everything. From the moment I first “met” him in Riot House, to reading about him in his own bool, this man has owned my whole heart.Pax lives life by his own rules, and he doesn’t really care about people. Pax is dark and mysterious and oh so yummy. I always do love the damaged boys the most. And Pax has demons that made him into the man that he is.Presley is a shy girl who always had a thing for Pax, but she is also scared of him. And man does Presley have a tragic, heart wrenching back story. Well - not so far back - which brings us to Riot Act.From the opening scene in this book, I was glued to it. I fell so in love with both Pax and Presley, and I cried for them and with them. But their Happily Ever After was hard fought for and hard won.Pax is up there as one of my all time book boyfriends and Riot Act is one of my all time favourite books. Callie Hart weaved such a beautiful story around these two and I honestly want more.
