Synopsis:

One mistake can change your life forever.
Casey had spent most of her life watching the Predators control Queen City, never believing they could be brought to justice. She was the one who always passed unnoticed as Max’s stepsister. They underestimated what she was capable of until it was almost too late. When the Predators discovered they were her prey, there was hell to pay, and Casey was going to have to pay her dues with her soul.

One mistake can fuck up your life forever.
Max trusted his stepsister, not believing for a second she would betray the Predators. She used her body to get what she wanted, and now Max would use the same wiles on her to trap Casey in her own web of deceit. The Predators demanded revenge, and Max was going to see they got what they wanted, even if the price was his soul.

This was one standoff neither was going to win.

I was intrigued by the Predators from the moment they first stepped on the scene. I freaking loved Ice’s book but I was looking the most forward to getting to know Max. My heart aches with saying that I was a little disappointed by this book. I didn’t feel that kind of fire I long for when diving into one of my favorite characters books.

This novel had a lot going on in a tiny bit of time, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but also not a good thing. It takes time for character chemistry to develop and I felt the chemistry was lacking in a few moments. I needed more feeling and more emotion.

Now onto the positives,

I really enjoyed reading Casey’s point of view. She spent the better half of this novel merely trying to survive and make a better life for her and her brother. I loved the fact that she actually had a backbone and did what she had to do to get away from the violence and most importantly, her mother.

I also may have shed a tear when Casey’s secret of what she was hiding was finally exposed. I loved Max’s tenderness when dealing with this situation.

Overall, I liked Standoff but didn’t love it. and believe me when I say, I really wanted to love this novel…..
