To say this is not my usual genre of choice I actually enjoyed this book. When I first started to read the story I got more engaged with it. The more I read I got connected to the characters especially Chloe-Jane. She was more of a secondary character initially but was oddly the one I cared about. The story was relatively easy to read and I wasn't able to guess how it turned out. I would recommend this to people who enjoy this genre.

We are back in Soho again a few years later from Taken where we meet up again with Alfie Jennings and the rest of the characters.
This time there is a new threat...The Triads are here and wanting to take over Soho, Alfie has had warnings but no one is going to take his precious club Whispers so for him there is only one thing left to do and that's Disobey.
My thoughts...
I'm a fan of Jacqui Rose and loved Taken But for some reason I couldn't connect with this one. Maybe because it was written a few years later but I felt the characters seemed so removed from Taken.
Some events from before were not brought up again in this book (view spoiler). Which although wasn't a problem it still made the characters feel different.
The introduction of Chloe Jane Alfie's niece and some of the decisions she made I was like..
Although it didn't work for me this time. Alfie and Vaughn are still great characters and the introduction of Lin and Mr. Lee makes it all the more chilling.

TAKEN was the first book I have read by this author and I enjoyed it. This time I didn't enjoy this.
I really couldn't connect to quite a few plots.

We have prostitution, lies, violence, murder and very bad language within the pages. I get how this is as and where the story has to be, but it was nothing like TAKEN and written [for me] in a way that the author was pandering to the needs of her audience, a bit like a comedian who has to swear every other word because its expected of him.

I just couldn't get past all of that.
Blame it on my age!
