Without giving away too much of the plot, Kit ends up having to live with 5 guys, all older than her and giving off some serious sexy vibes. This leads to Kit doing some light breaking and entering on her spare time which in turn leads to some interest from a few private investigation companies.
Kit Davenport was adopted from a rather sketchy foster home when she was 13 by a Daddy Warbucks type character who doesn't have many fatherly inclinations but sends her to a nice school and gives her everything that she could ever possibly want (and does not perform highly choreographed dance numbers in his mansion in a nice suit with her). Drawn out tension makes the plot so much thicker and more enjoyable. It's a slow burn as opposed to what I have started calling the "Bottle Rocket Chemistry" where it all just goes up very quickly but isn't very thrilling in the long run. Sure, there is some insta-lust going on but that happens. Kit isn't all over the guys and the guys aren't all over her. This book, on the other hand, has a strong plot pushing it forward. All the men fall instantly into love with the female victim LEAD and cannot keep their hands off of her.
Many of these books are PWP type stories with a rather flimsy excuse for a gang bang of some sort, most of which I cannot stomach to finish. However, this little problem of mine can lead to some rather unsavory books. If you know me, you know I will read just about anything with that nasty delicious reverse harem tag on it.
Don't expect literary genius but do expect to be entertained. My current favorites are Cole, for his Eastern European growly voice, and Wesley, because sweet & shy darlings are hard to come by in the reverse harem genre. Wesley - the shy, introverted computer genius On to the love interests, of which there five (we can only expect this number to grow from here on out).Ĭole - dark and dangerous, a natural fighter The "my tough past made me stronger" and the "I'm a master at my job but somehow still in high school" tropes are just plain fun, so who cares if they're overdone? I've seen these character archetypes in a million other books, but in this case, I can overlook the lack of originality. So no, not the most unique setup in the world. Her secret identity is uncovered by some elite secret agents (who are somehow all under 25) and joins the team to protect her job and her best friend/mastermind hacker Lucy. The Vixen's Lead follows Kit Davenport aka The Fox, a daytime high school senior, nighttime international master thief with a difficult past as an abused orphan. Some of my MacHalo buddies are in the middle of a reverse harem craze - I, of course, am above such silly fancies and am only reading along with them to make them feel better )
