Yet another FABULOUS read from Edie bayliss, the third in the Allegiance series. A society filled with criminal activity, deceit, rivalry and blood-thirsty individuals out for revenge, this one isn't for the faint hearted!

I love that Bayliss introduces new characters which fit into the story so far just perfectly. It doesn't feel forced and ensures we are supplied with constant action, making for a definite page turner.

As usual, I eagerly await the next installment!

Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review 📖

A brilliant read once again from this author, What a family, I just could not put it down as it takes us from London and Birmingham. Gripping read , Maria Devlin and her brother Grant want what they are entitled to from their mother Linda Matthews who abandoned them as children Samantha Reynold the sister they didnt know existed is not to be messed with. It's payback time. I loved Vendetta from start to finish.

This is the 3rd instalment in the Allegiance series and the story of Samantha Reynolds and Seb Stoker who were once bitter business adversaries now find themselves in a romantic relationship. Being well aware that their relationship won't be easily accepted by their peers, only a select few folk are in the know about them and they plan on keeping it that way for just a little while longer.

The clue of the premise is in the name #Vendetta, someone really has it in for Sam and Seb, they have their the pair in their sights and nothing less that complete humiliation and ruination will do for one character. As per with this type of book the couples hard earned money is a huge draw for more than one ne'er do well. There's some new enemies on the horizon and they have big plans for the couple. Obviously we catch up with some of the shadier characters from the earlier books, we find that some are still nursing grievance's with one or other of the dastardly duo, still out for some form of revenge.

Sam has been desperate to find her mum Linda again, she suddenly vanished one night and even with their massive combined resources they've been unable to find her, sadly we know where she is and what's happening to her. In another location someone sees a photograph of Linda from happier times with Sam and Seb and this sets off a whole other chain of events.

From the very beginning we are straight into the action and it doesn't stop till the very last page. We are taken through some of the seedier side of life drugs and prostitution not to mention violence. Some of the violence is stomach churning and although it's wrong under some circumstances is it really?

I came across this author Edie Baylis by pure chance on #kindleunlimited and since then I've read everything that she's written. So managing to get my hands on an ARC was a bonus. As with her previous works I devoured #Vendetta in jig time. Readers of Emmy Ellis, Kimberley Chambers and Jacqui Rose should enjoy her work.

Thank you to the author Edie Baylis, #Netgalley and #Boldwood Books for my copy of an ARC. All opinions are mine and mine alone.

What another fantastic read from Edie Baylis . Just love all the books a must read if you like the likes of Caz Finley and Jacqui rose . Can't wait for the next book .

Another fabulous instalment in the Sam and Seb saga. Their relationship is really growing now but as always, is also being tested to the limits. Love the characters - both good and bad- in this book as their huge personalities almost leap off the page!

Eddie Baylis has done it again with this brilliant book! This is the next part of the Sam Reynold and Seb Stoker story. Gritty and violent this is a real page turner. New characters are introduced and slot in well with the already established ones. If you like reading gangland books with strong characters and a meaty story line then this is a series and author for you. Not for the faint hearted though!
Thank you to Netgalley and Boldwood books for the opportunity to read this in exchange for an honest review.

I devoured the previous book in this series and I did the same with this one. The series is incredibly good. You just have to put everything aside as soon as you open a new instalment, because it’s unbelievably hard to put it away. It’s very, very addictive.

Gangland crime books are not for the fainthearted. The characters are often ruthless, sadistic and never show any mercy at all. There is a difference though between the good ones and the bad ones. Yes, you might seem surprised, but there really are good ones in this type of book. They have the same characteristics as the bad ones, but they also love their family with all their heart. Family is a big word. It includes everybody that stands by them whether they are blood related or not. They protect them no matter what and those who cross the line, trying to steal from or hurt someone from the tribe, is punished. Punished to the extent they will never be able to talk about it…

The bad ones love their family too. Well, they love especially what their family can do for them and not the other way around. They will help when it benefits them. If not , you can rot in hell for all they care.

What I also love about this author is the fact she keeps the action going throughout the whole book. There is never a lull. You know the feeling when something happens and there is a misunderstanding? The characters often don’t want to talk to each other because they are mad, hurt or both. That is very understandable. Here though the author does not stretch these situations endlessly. This sometimes can get on my nerves. Here the air is cleared within the matter of a few pages and we can move on towards the next event.

This makes me very happy and it heightens the pace of this action filled story.

This is one of those books I want to finish as soon as possible in order to find out what happens next, but at the same time I don’t want to end it at all because it’s so very good. 5 stars.

Thank you

Firstly thank you Netgalley for this ARC

Another brilliant page turner by a brilliant author, books just keep getting better

Samantha Reynolds and Sebastian Stoker are no longer enemies they are the perfect power couple and totally in love.Their casino's and firms are working together and stronger than ever.But not every one is pleased about their perfect lives and want them to suffer badly.
Sam and Seb must trust each other completely but who else can they trust and how long can they remain strong before things come crashing down.
I was really excited to read the next installment in this great series and i wasn't dissapointed gripping and gritty throughout,the ending ends perfectly building up for the next installment.
Thanks to Netgalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC.

This author is amazing. A story that has kept me intrigued for hours.
Great characters and great storyline

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and author for this eARC.

This is an excellent addition to an already good series. Edie Baylis certainly knows how to pull her readers in and keep them entertained and absorbed in her books. I found this to be a very well written, thrilling and engaging read. It pulled me in right from the start and held my attention throughout. I loved the addition of new characters who have their own hidden agendas - are they who they seem though? I thought the story flowed really well, I particularly like that it is told through the characters and from their perspectives. Some of the characters are vile, I absolutely loathed them and just want them to be found out and get their come uppance. I think the author portrays her characters perfectly, I either like them or hate them, there is no middle ground at all. I think this is a great book to read, it didn’t quite wow me as much as the previous book although I’d still recommend it. It is best if you read the series in order to get to know the characters and their histories. The ending sets the next book up nicely and I look forward to reading it,
