Three Strikes by Dani Wyatt

Three Strikes is the latest installment in the Meant to Be series by Dani Wyatt and it features Cyrus, the darker and more aloof sibling between Tor and Sophia. In many ways though, he does me of Tor—especially when it comes to his obsessive tendencies and inability to take no for an answer. He was completely obsessed with just a single glance of Anna and wanted her to be his forever. As always, the sex scenes were incredibly erotic and dirty. I thought Tor and Chance was intense but Cyrus was adamant about making Anna his no matter what, even when she was arranged to be married to someone else because of her father's machinations.

"You were made for me, you know that don't you? Made. For. Me."

In the end, I thoroughly enjoyed this quick and spicy read of a much older hero and his heroine. Cyrus was surprisingly much darker than Tor because he sometimes dabbled in the illegal side of the spectrum. Anna wanted out of that life because her family was also in the same circles as Cyrus but meeting him changed everything for her. Despite being forced into an arranged marriage with a stranger who was out to kill her family, I loved how Anna wanted to give the one thing that was sacred of hers to Cyrus—her first time—before living a life without him. Thankfully, a happy ending awaits these two.

If you're into the age gap kink, you won't be disappointed by some of the dirty talk in this book because Cyrus thought of Anna as his precious little one since the very beginning.
