Romance Readers Retreat: Review: Firefly (Redemption #2) By Molly McAdams

*****5 STARS*****

I'm completely addicted to this series. The Redemption series is unlike any book Molly has written in the past. Firefly is an intense, suspenseful, angsty, and dark read that will have you at the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next. The writing is flawless with great flow and even poetic at times. I was captivated the whole way through and didn't put this book down for anything. I completely devoured this book in a matter of hours; it was that good!!

Lily is the Princess of the Irish-American mob known as the Holloways and Dare is the Boss of their rival mob, The Borellos. Lily & Dare's love is intoxicating, intense, sweet, and so beautiful These two make an unlikely pair but they couldn't be more perfect for one another. Their romance is unlike any other I've read in awhile. These two are star crossed lovers that you can't help but to root for them to get a happy ending because they both don't have a lot of happy in their lives. Kieran, on the other hand, I wanted to strangle!! I get that all he wanted to do was save and protect Lily at all costs but I don't know how he couldn't see that he was losing her in the process. I'm still quite excited to read his story next though.

Firefly is filled with twists and turns that will take you through a rollercoaster of emotions. Molly will once again give you the ultimate book hangover and give you a story so emotional and real that you feel like you are living it. These characters will break your heart and you will feel every single emotion that they feel so maybe have a box of tissues by your side for this one. I DARE you to one-click this book right now because I promise you won't regret it.

The next captivating installment in New York Times bestselling author Molly McAdams’s Redemption series.

As the Princess of the Irish-American Mob, there’s no shortage of men ready to help guard and protect me. To slowly suffocate me to the point of seeking freedom—a place where I can breathe.

Kieran Hayes has been saving me for as long as I can remember. It’s in his blood, and one of the many reasons I fell in love with him. Until my favorite trait became his biggest flaw, making me resent the man I love. An unwavering warrior, his love for me has been shrouded by those instincts.

Save Lily. Protect Lily. Hide Lily. Cage Lily.

What I wasn’t prepared for was Dare—the man who would set my world on fire with just one touch. He saw straight through to my soul, as though he knew I was desperate for freedom, and silently demanded my heart from the beginning.

And I didn’t expect Dare to be Demitri Borello—the reason for so many deaths in my family. A man who will take my life the moment he finds out who I am.

Despite it all, I’ll love him until that moment comes.

A fire will die if there is no oxygen for it to consume. Ours is rapidly stealing every last breath we can sacrifice to it.
