A Masters and Mercenaries Novel by Lexi Blake. 4 Star Review by Ashley I'm gonna get this out of the way early- Dominance Never Dies is the first book in Lexi Blake's Masters and Mercenaries series that I've read. Crazy, trust me I know. But you can bet I'm gonna go back and read the rest because- just wow! That being said, it took me a bit to keep who was who and the connections between the different "companies" straight but I got it sorted. Mystery. Desire. Half-Truths. That is just the first chapter! Mia and Case are two sides of the same coin- stubborn and bold yet also kind. Case is reeling from the loss of his brother and Mia is just trying to get some answers. Both are so fiercely dedicated to their causes but it comes with a price. One gets bullets sent their way the other is a target used for bribery but neither have ever or will ever back down. And this is what brings them back into each others orbit after their huge falling out. I loved Case- his full out alpha-male- don't mess with me or my family because I will take you down and out attitude. And Mia's tendency to do before thinking it through but also her willingness to sacrifice herself and her own happiness to protect others really endeared her to me. The intensity and danger build and build but so does the chemistry and connection between Case and Mia as they join forces to take down a common threat. It is quite the whirlwind of secrets and sex. Both not seeming to remember that secrecy is what tore them apart the first time. When Case realizes he screwed up, it is his words- gah his words- and unseen actions that made me swoon. Him giving Mia what she needed and desired proved just how much he "got" her as a person. I was so wrapped up in Mia and Case's story and how it pulled in everyone else that I found myself reading until the sun came up. And I still wanted more. Lexi Blake- you got me with Dominance Never Dies. I am completely hooked on this cast of characters that are so flawed and fearless at the same time. This one gave me the major feels- everything from anxiety to hope. And that ending- be still my heart- I loved it! What a perfect culmination of everything that happened in this book but also a fantastic set up for the next one in the series.
