This was a really good read for me, even if I am not a huge sci-fi or futuristic fan. I’d say this is an awesome book for a person like me who love good action books, with a hint of kink and romance on the side. It was enough sci-fi to understand and get the feel of a more developed world, a changed world where the main population live on Mars and Earth is deserted. The only people still there are those in jail. I’d even go so far to say I could have taken a little more of the futuristic in this book because the plot was so good it would have made it even more intense. This book is part of a series, I haven’t read the other books prior to this book, personally I don’t think you need to it works fine as a standalone, however I think the experience of the this particular book will be even greater with the other five books read for the simple reason that there is a story that is told from book to book that is not finished or in any way done with the end of the book you are reading. Because even though I did feel that understood the reason for the war between the Outlaws and the Peacekeepers it was obvious to me that there were details, situations and information missing for me. As for Whip and Harley, I loved them. They fit well together, they were great together and the flow of their relationship as it developed was great. What I liked the most was James Cox ability to develop their relationship as well as he did without compromising the other part of the story, the war and conflict between the MC and the Peacekeepers. He gave room for Whip and Harley to share themselves with each other forming a bond that is very important in a romance plot. Whip was kinky but not this stereotypical Dom who couldn’t be just a man, for the lack of a better word. The author plotted him out well making being a Dom just a part of who he was and not his entire persona. Just as much as Harley was this kickass, sarcastic, gleam in his eye Irish even though he loved submitting to Whip. Two real men with many quirks to them. This is the type of book I love the most, a book that keeps me reading until there’s no more to read. It leisure, it energizes my mind and I know things will work out in the end but the way there is not straight and it keeps me guessing. And I for one look forward to reading this series from the very beginning.
