While She Sleeps (The Dirty Heroes Collection) by Dani Rene


Title: While She Sleeps
Series: Dirty Heroes Collection
Author: Dani René
Genre: Dark Taboo Romance
Release Date: April 27, 2020
Dangerous. Unstable. Obsessive. 
She believes in fairytales and awaits her prince. 
But I arrive at her doorstep and I’m far from royalty. 
The shiver down my back tells me he’s there. As if he were touching me. 
Cold, angry, aloof—he’s everything I don’t need. But I can’t turn off my attraction when he’s near.
My sleeping beauty doesn’t realize just how dangerous I am. 
She trusts so easily, smiles so beautifully. And while she sleeps, I watch. 
With each passing night, I become more addicted. 
Until I’m a man obsessed. 
I feel his gaze on me, watching while I sleep. 
He pushes me away in the light, but in the dark, he comes to me like a moth to a flame. 
I crave it. He doesn’t know just how broken I am.
I believed she was the light to my darkness. 
But it turns out my sleeping beauty likes to dive into the shadows alongside me. 
She’s mine, but that decision could kill us both.

A bit torn with this one -
Oh, It delivers on its promises

Dark - You know it
Naughty - Deliciously so
Twisted - Like a spiral
Suspense - Oh yeah 😉
( I was constantly wanting to peek ahead)

Vera was very mature for her age - she knew what she liked 
and had no problems vocalizing her desires and emotions

Logan, IMO, was a bit stifled(?)
At times he just didn't scream Alpha for me.
It was almost like he had multiple personalities
When it came to Vera though he was all caveman

Together these two are dangerous
They feed the others darker side - Their more forbidden desires(?)

So why was I torn?
I wasn't able to connect with the characters on the level I prefer
There were scenes that I felt didn't tie up properly or were missing details
I can be very particular sometimes
The overall story was intense and had my attention for the most part.
Just not one of my favorites from this author

Ohhh, I do want to mention -
The way the author "likened" our heroine to sleeping beauty
Flipping brilliant
