We first met Tyler Hawk in Dash Black and Allie Wright's story from the Necklace Trilogy. He was a mysterious figure, ally, and sometimes a friend to the couple. This book takes place after the events of When I Say Yes, and Tyler is dealing with the ramifications of his father's crimes and what happened to the missing Allison. From the very beginning, I had a hard time figuring out Tyler's character and motivations. He was often broody, intense, serious, and there was almost a predator-like nature to him. I never expected him to be paired up with Bella Bailey—Dash Black's sister, but it turns out that they have always been attracted to each other. However, there are big obstacles to their blooming relationship and Tyler must be the one to figure out what and who he truly wants in order to be with Bella."I want to drown in everything that is this woman. My hands are all over her, and I want to be buried so deep in her, I'll never find a way out."Tyler was such a fascinating character and it was refreshing to finally get inside his head. Tyler is haunted by what happened between Allison and Jack Hawk. There were consequences to his actions and he blamed himself for it. Tyler never knew what love was and who can blame him? He grew up in a loveless household with a father who hated him and is still torturing him after his death. It was also a pleasant surprise to find out that there was more to Tyler and Bella's relationship than meets the eye. They just never acted on it until now and what a pair they are. Bella was such a sweet character with a backbone of steel. Despite being more vulnerable with Tyler, she knew her worth and could stand the weight of his words. I loved their intense and forbidden relationship. This entire book felt like a foreplay session between the two and the moment they came together was everything I wanted and more. I can't wait to read more of their story in Sweet Sinner because this book does end with a brutal and heartbreaking cliffhanger.
