Synopsis
Defy is a smutty, insta-love, insta-lust short novella. Defy is a prequel to Vicious (Sinners of Saint #1). It is recommended, but unnecessary, to read Defy before reading Vicious.
My name is Melody Greene, and I have a confession to make.
I slept with my student, a senior in high school.
Multiple times.
I had multiple orgasms.
In multiple positions.
I slept with my student and I enjoyed it.
I slept with my student and I’d do it all over again if I could turn back time.
My name is Melody Greene, and I got kicked out of my position as a teacher and did my walk of shame a la Cersei Lannister from the principal’s office, minutes after said principal threatened to call the cops on me.
My name is Melody Greene, and I did something bad because it made me feel good.
Here is why it was totally worth it.
For a limited time, you can one-click Defy on Amazon for only .99 cents!
Review
Defy was my first L.J. Shen book and I was very impressed. I thoroughly enjoyed her writing style and the storyline and characters she created. Jaime and Melody made a surprisingly good couple, and even though she was his teacher and eight years older, I didn’t find their relationship to be weird whatsoever. I really liked them and enjoyed reading their story. I finished it late at night because I just had to know how it ended. I wasn’t a big fan of the insta-love aspect, but since Defy was a novella, I understood that the author had to progress things quicker than if it were a full-length novel. Despite that fact, I was intrigued from the beginning to the end and was very happy with the way Ms. Shen concluded Jaime and Melody’s story. The only real problem I had with this book was that it wasn’t longer. I really enjoyed my first taste of the Sinners of Saint world, and I’m extremely looking forward to discovering more about all of the characters in Vicious!
