This Isn’t Fair, Baby
War & Peace Series #6
by K. Webster
Publication Date: April 18, 2017
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Dark Romance
***This is the sixth book in the series. First five books must be read in order to fully understand this story line.*** The king in my world fell and a new one slid into place. He wasn’t just. He wasn’t FAIR. He was cruel and hateful and twisted. But I had this black king figured out. Or so I thought. The game became complicated because my black king had some new moves and one of those involved my heart. Hope trickled in for the briefest of moments. That is, until my black king and my heart sided against me. Those two didn’t play FAIR. They used me as their pawn in a bigger game—a game I didn’t know how to play. The laws changed. I didn’t play by their rules anymore, for the queen makes up her own. I am not a pawn. I am not theirs to use and abuse. I belong to nobody. There are new players on the board and they don’t play FAIR either. But the white king does know how to treat his queen. And together, they will make them pay. All’s FAIR in love and war, right? Definitely not this time. ***Warning*** This Isn’t Fair, Baby is a dark romance. Extreme sexual themes and violence, which could trigger emotional distress, are found in this story. If you are sensitive to dark themes, then this story is not for you.
This Isn’t Fair, Baby was one of my most highly anticipated
reads so far this year. It is the sixth book in my favorite dark romance series, the War & Peace series, by my favorite dark romance author, K Webster. I
knew before I even read it that I would love it. This series is a sure thing
for me, and that’s why I’m so sad that the next book in the series will be the
last. I know it has to end sometime, but I don’t want it to! Reading this book made
me dread what is to come even more. It was full of villians, blood, violence,
and sex just the way I like it. Engaging, entertaining, dark, and deranged, I
loved every minute!
Vee is drugged, raped, starved, physically assaulted, and
imprisoned by Esteban Rojas. When her lifelong friend, Oscar, comes to visit
Esteban, he finds Vee drugged and naked in his brother’s house. Instead of
helping her like he should, he betrays her in the worst way. The brothers want
revenge on Diego Gomez, and they don’t hesitate to use Vee to get it. Her job
is to seduce and kill their enemy at which time she will marry into the Rojas
family, a dream of hers for as long as she can remember.
Once the drugs leave her system, Vee decides that Diego won’t
be the only man she kills. She is going to take out Esteban and Oscar, too. Vee
once cared about these men that now use her body, mess with her mind, and risk
her life all to benefit them, but that just makes her crave vengeance all the
more.
The only problem is that Diego isn’t at all what she
expected. He seems to genuinely care for her, but she is sick of being a pawn
in the games of men. Should she carry out her original plan or make a deal with
the devil?
Vee is not my favorite heroine, but I enjoyed her story none
the less. It went a lot different than I expected it to, but that just made it
even better. We met Daddy Diego in Brie’s story and though he disgusted me at
times, he was an intriguing character. I was so glad that we got to see who he
really was in this book. He was the highlight of the story for me, and I
enjoyed reading from his perspective.
As always, I admire the author’s ability to make me fall in
love with villains and question my sanity. Esteban is one of the only
characters in this series that I feel has no redeeming qualities. He is a sick,
abusive rapist and thug that makes my skin crawl whenever he enters the scene.
Although Oscar did some of the most unspeakable, unforgivable things to Vee,
the author still somehow made me feel slightly sympathetic towards him in the
end. It makes me almost certain that I need my head examined, but it’s the
truth. That is something that I love about all of K. Webster’s writing. Things
are usually not black and white, and characters are not just good or evil. So
many shades of gray exist in between, and those are my favorite types of
stories and characters.
This Isn’t Fair, Baby is sexy, fast paced, and deliciously dark.
It’s fantastically written with a hot romance, dirty sex, and complex
characters. As with every book in this series, the story drew me in and
captivated me from the very first page. If you are a fan of this series, then you
do not want to miss this one! If you love dark romance but haven’t yet given this
series a try, go one-click This is War, Baby now and you can thank me later!
