Tiny - The Skulls #4 - Sam Crescent
Sum up: (Goodreads)
Tiny is the leader of The Skulls and the main protector of Fort Wills, but that wasn’t always the case. He has a dark past, and it’s about to come and bite him in the ass.
Eva cannot stay with a man who’ll keep her in the dark. She’s the daughter of the man who runs the underground fighting circuit in Vegas, and there is iron in her that none of the Skulls suspects. Backing down from what she wants has never been in her nature, but Tiny is too far gone. There’s no hope of holding him.
When Tiny and his boys are attacked on a drug run, he has no choice but to head to the woman he loves. Tiny doesn’t know which of his men are alive or dead. He only knows his past has finally caught up with him. But how can he go back home without his daughter’s man?
Lives will be tested, and lives will be lost. Tiny will be pushed to the breaking point, and he’ll have to make a choice. Who can he save when all seems lost?
Some scenes contain sexual and violent contents that may offend sensibilities of readers.
Plot:
Tiny is the fourth book of The Skulls series by Sam Crescent. I advise you to read the previous ones before reading this one.
Tiny and Eva have been dancing around each other for the past eight years. But after everything that happened and all the women he had sex with, Eva decided to take her distance with Tiny and with the Skulls by flying away to Vegas with her father, hoping she will finally find the force to forget about Tiny.
But the longer she stays away from him, the more she craves his touch and his love. When Tiny finally makes a move, it may be too late… for him. In the shadows, a powerful enemy of the MC is waiting for them and Tiny sees his brothers falling one by one.
Opinion:
Wow! Wow! This book has got quite some actions. Forget everything that was done before! Sam Crescent comes back full force. The Skulls has never been in such danger, trust me! A little preview: all the men are scattered after a run that went bad, no one knows who survived, new villains arrive in town and randomly kill citizens and the compound has been burned to the ground. See what I mean?
"They were attacked on the road. No one knows who is alive or dead. Sandy has destroyed the compound at Stink’s orders. He and Killer are the only ones we know who are alive.” Tate sobbed over the line. “It was only supposed to be a quick drop, Eva. I’ve not heard from Murphy or my father, and I’m freaking out. Killer said it was an entire fucking club, an ambush."
In this context, we see the evolution of the ever-growing relationship between Eva and Tiny. Evangeline - also called Eva - has been craving Tiny since the first she saw him. Yet, he always had sexy with other women, never letting her in. When he finally decides to give in, it is the worst night Eva had ever had. She is just tired of this and she decides it is time for her to head back home to Vegas. It is only when she is about to leave that Tiny realizes the intensity of his feelings for her, but isn't it too late?
I loved Eva so much. She is strong, loyal, fierce, honest... She could almost be perfection. She reminds me a lot of Tate but she is just less annoying. She is not scared to defend what she considers as hers.
"I love him, Gavin. He is my heart, my soul, my very fucking life, and he could be dead.” “He’s an old man.” Fisting her hand, she slammed it against his nose. He grunted, collapsing to the floor. She landed a kick against his balls. “I don’t give a fuck how old he is. Tiny is mine."
When everything falls down around her after the bad run The Skulls had, she will stop at nothing to find Tiny and defends what remains of The Skulls.
Tiny finally decides to do something. I swear this guy deserves to be slapped around a bit. He had Eva for eight long years and he never acted on it. You feel the intensity of each other's feelings but they are both afraid of it. Tiny is very lucky though because Eva gave in really quickly. They may not have been officially together but he always had sex with other women and she just took him back without saying anything. Sometimes the image of women depicted in this series makes me cringe. But at least, Tate and Eva stand their ground.
The difference of age did not bother me much because it did not feel shocking in the story (even though she is 29 and he is almost 50 years old).
The only thing that bothered me was the number of sex scenes in this storyline. Usually, I am up for some good scenes but there was quite some suspens and the reader mostly wants to know what will happen next. But no, sex scene first. I mean, Tiny does not know who survived but the guy is still having sex with his woman several times a day. I mean, come on! you have better things to do.
Anyway, you shouldn't miss on this reading ;)
