A thrilling enemies-to-lovers dark mafia romantic suspense from USA Today bestselling author Jeana E. Mann.

For three years, I’ve been running from a man I’ve never met. A man who carries a grudge. A man who specializes in revenge. My sister stole from him, and--because he can't collect from her-- he's decided to hold me responsible. He won’t be satisfied until he’s repaid with the money or my body.

I hate him for ruining my perfect life. I hate his bedroom eyes, his tattoos, and the way my knees go weak every time he presses me against the wall. I'm powerless against the attraction between us, and he knows it.

Cash is everything I never wanted: dark, deceptive, and dedicated to a life of crime. He’s determined to pull me into the darkness with him, and the thing is—I want to go. Every kiss, every lie, every punishment propels me into a future I never dreamed possible.

This is not my first Jeana Mann book, but I did not read the previous book about Jagger's sister, so lost a teensy bit because of that. BUT, not for long, since this book fills in all the blanks that need to be filled in.

Before I start talking about this book, let me say that over the last couple of years, I've read most of Jeana Mann's books including the Felony Series and the Pretty Broken series. I'm impressed with her ability to create characters that the reader will remember. Especially the men, but the women too!

Cash Delacourt. Nope, never going to forget the Alpha male who pulled a gun out in Jagger's office. I grinned and thought right then that this book was going to be one hell of a good ride (and watch Amz censor that last sentence). And it WAS a good ride. The plot stayed consistent, there were no burps where it jumped around or made no sense. And as I said before, Jeana Mann knows how to build characters that you'll always have in your mind.

The story is rather basic, the woman's sister was a thief, she's a thief, but trying to go straight. Cash is the one they stole from. Beyond that, I am not going to mention anything of the story, since all the plot pieces will bring it together for you. Suffice to say, the book is great, but I wish it had been longer. I was so captivated while I was reading it, I actually flipped the page on the Kindle and discovered it was over. Not really a cliffhanger as much as it was a good place to end Part I of the story. I just hadn't expected it.

The characters in this book aren't overly colorful but instead have deep feelings and are formed around their part lives and feelings, giving them a very personal feel.

I enjoyed the book, as well as Part II, which I will review next. If you get a chance, read the book. I don't think you will be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars I think my Kindle overheated. Crazy steamy between the leads, gripping plot.
Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2020
I’ve been looking forward to reading this book for awhile. I wasn’t disappointed!

The story is quick paced, twisty, and STEAMY.

Our story centers around Jagger Jones, a talented jewelry maker (and forgery artist) who is trying to leave her family’s criminal past behind her.

That is, until her older sister’s literal partner in crime shows up in Jagger’s store demanding answers over a ring she’d made, and swapped out, from one of his stores. Cash Delacorte is not a man to be trifled with, stolen from, or tricked. Jagger has managed to do all of those.

Cash decides that Jagger is now responsible for the repayment of the stolen ring AND the high priced debit her sister left with Cash when she left him.

Jagger then swirls into a plot of desperate choices, crazy schemes, and risky actions. All while trying to fight her surprising and strong reaction to Court. Their relationship is truly a one step forward ten steps back situation.

While this story is complex, populated with intriguing and interesting characters, and well described leads, there a few things that poked at me while I read.

Don’t misunderstand. This was a sit and read until the pages are gone story. Knowing it is part one of a duet, the cliffhanger was expected, however Ms. Mann delivered in SPADES! I’m anxious to get my hands on the conclusion to Jagger and Cash’s story. Hopefully some of the things that were discordant to me in part one are solved in part two.

The things I stood out to me were Jagger and Cash’s physical relationship. After all the build up and written foreplay, we don’t get the actual final scene. It fades to black and then the reader is filled in via flashbacks. This is a new plot device that I haven’t run across in other books. I like the thought, however in this book, particularly due to the power play going on between Jagger and Cash, I feel that an outright bedroom scene with more of their power struggle would have suited this story better.

Then there was the one scene where we have physical contact with Jagger and Cash. I felt a little anti-climatic regarding this exchange. Again, after the amazing build up in dialogue, the push/pull of the little physical actions of the characters, coupled with their very strong personalities...I was sad to see Jagger give in to Cash in a quiet moment where she is feeling vulnerable, exposed, and crushed.
I would have preferred their standard argumentative byplay followed by some outrageous action that culminates in a hotel room. I had hoped for a stronger scene for Jagger. Particularly given her position at this point in the story.

Finally there is Mr. Mercer. He’s painted as a critical part of Jagger’s life. The story opens with Jagger lamenting the sales in the store, moves on to her buying into the store, has a touching scene when Jagger visits him in the hospital , but then he’s sort of ethereal presence in the background. We know Jagger has his power of attorney and she’s uncomfortable with that, but we never see Mr. Mercer again. He’s just mentioned to be in severely compromised health which is another weight on Jagger’s shoulders.

While these items stood out to me as a reader, I am a new reader to Ms. Mann’s world. It may be that these characters will continue on or be thriving in another one of her series. I understand this duet is a spin off of a current world. I’m also a new reader to this author so it may also be that she wraps up all of my questions, wants, and desires for these characters in part two.

Regardless, this read keep me engaged and dreading the known cliff hanger. I have set up my notifications for the next book in the duet as I’m a very impatient reader and would like my happy ending now vs later. I’m anxiously waiting for the conclusion to Jagger and Cash.

I love Jeana E. Mann's books and with Absolute Power, the first book in the Absolute Power Duet, she did not disappoint me. The story of Cash Delacorte and Jagger Jones is so well written that you can picture everything as you are reading, every facial expression, ever location, every emotion and more. Jagger is the sister of Calliope, her story is in The Ruthless Knight. When Jagger, Calliope and Cash pull their last job together things don't end as they expected. Calliope and Jagger were able to get away but they need to split up so Calliope sends Jagger to the States with the money and instructions to lay low. When Cash finally crosses paths with her again in a little town in Indiana it is revenge he has on his mind.

This first book ends with a cliffhanger so you will need to read the second, Absolute Trust, to find out what happens and just how the story of Cash and Jagger ends. But it will be so worth it!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good story... but no connection to the characters left it feeling lacking
Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2020
I received an ARC of this book for an honest review.

Jeana E Mann is not a new to me author and I was really excited to get this book delivered, especially knowing how powerful her writing is in the other books that I’ve read by her.

Jagger and Cash are a whirlwind of emotion that I wasn’t yet ready for. Their story took me on the ride of my life. This duet didn’t feel as powerful as the other works by Jeana, and unfortunately I was not able to connect to either of the characters on the level that I was needing to make this book even more powerful.

Due to the lack of connection to the characters, I wasn’t able to connect to their story either. It was a good story, good plot line, but without a solid connection, it didn’t pull me in the way I wanted it too. I was easily distracted while reading it instead of completely sucked in to the story.

Even though I didn’t have the connection I wanted, I still felt as though this story was good. It lacked depth for me, but that isn’t to say that it would do the same to other readers. Jeana has a powerful way of writing and her attention to detail is impeccable. I will definitely continue reading her work.

Three stars for this thrilling ride that left me feeling disconnected.

I was hook from the start until the end of the book. I had a few long nights reading late I couldn't stop I had to know what will happen to Jagger and Cash. At the end of book 1 I was frustrated because of the ending I wanted to know and now I have to wait for book 2 …. God the waiting is painful but THANK YOU Jeana E. Mann you're a good writer and you make me day dreaming….
