<i>"West Gallo is not a good man . . ."</i>
Truer words have never been spoken, but like Hannah, the object of West's devotion, love, possession and obsession, that doesn't make me crave the man any less. He's a true alpha-male, completely willing to do whatever he can to make his girl happy without compromising his dominance and protective nature, and thankfully he's got a woman who does not want for much. However, I definitely agree with Hannah's reaction to finding out <b>all</b> that West did to arrange her life in a way that would lead her right to him. It was a little scary and overwhelming, but also very sweet; what a lucky girl.
I loved Hannah's character. She's not overly whiny or optimistic or pessimistic. I like that she's real: she overthinks, she rambles when she's nervous, she zones out, and lastly, she takes time to enjoy and appreciate the things that are often thought of as mundane, insignificant things that are just...life. She's not (according to the author and other characters) a knockout, she's the girl-next-door, but not in a saccharine way that's too Mary-Sue-ish or eye-roll-worthily meek.
West&Hannah's dynamic is literally what we as readers want when we read these type of books: a chance to experience the all-encompassing love illustrated on the page; so meta.
I'm used to short, erotic, deeply romantic tales from Sam Crescent so I was pleasantly surprised at how well-thought-out, detailed and descriptive this book was while still maintaining her usual less than 20-chapter book format. She answered every question Hannah and I wanted to know, and even some we hadn't known we wanted to know.
You definitely won't want to put down "Street King" until the very end. #Goodreads #CrescentSam #MyReviews
