Title: Tempting Little Thief
Series: Girls of Greyson
Author: Meagan Brandy
Release Date: June 2023
From USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Meagan Brandy comes an all-new forbidden romance featuring a possessive hero … who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. I fell for a man I'm not allowed to have…
He’s rough, rugged, and utterly unpredictable. He’s not cautious or contemplative. He’s a volcano. Silent and steady one second, and a complete nightmare in the next. But that’s not the worst of it. This guy? He’s an outsider and in my world outsiders don’t belong. They’re unwanted, unwelcome and known to disappear without a trace, yet he doesn’t seem to care. After one night of reckless rebellion, the tattooed tyrant keeps coming back, sneaking into my world without permission, and causing trouble I can’t allow. I should end this now before my father discovers his existence and does it for me, but he won’t allow it. He says, like it or not, I’m his now, that nothing and no one will stand in his way. Not even me…

Gahhh, even after all this time I still absolutely love Bastian Bishop!
So we first meet Bass in the Brayshaw series & he's the go-to man, the lackey & hired help.
This book takes place along side the series. Bass starts out the same, only wanting to get his sister into a better place - that is until he meets her. Rocklin. She isn't what she seems. Preppy rich girl, driving an expensive car. She first lays eyes on him standing over a body, and doesn't bat an eye. Then steals from him. Daughter of a kingpin, she's everything he's not. And everything he wants. His eyes are set on her. And he goes from thinking of nothing but trying to obtain a better life for his sister, to wanting something for himself. But obtaining Rocklin Revenaw may be more difficult than either were expecting. Blackmail, rivilaing mafias, and secrets threaten to tear them apart. But Bastian will stop at nothing to claim what is his.
I picked up PLP & TLT in preparation for Bad Little Bride that is releasing soon & I can't wait. I love the Girls of Greyson world. The darker, grittier side. I love Bass & Rocklin 's story - I have loved Bass since he first traced the pages of Boys of Brayshaw High & I couldn't wait to read more about him. (If you haven't yet read the series I highly recommend it!) He may have been a poor punk from the wrong side of town, with a rough childhood, trying to find his own place in the world. Which he found beside Rocklin. Rocklin was more than just the preppy Rich girl. She was strong and could hold her own against anyone. But was also looking for something outside of what she was used to. The two may have been complete opposites - but they worked.
If you like dark academia, then I recommend these books.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Meagan Brandy writes New Adult romance novels with a twist. She is a candy crazed, jukebox junkie who tends to speak in lyrics.

Starbucks is her best friend and words are her sanity.
