Alexa Parrino escaped a life of servitude and survived danger on the streets to become one of the most trusted, influential people in Sector Four, where the O'Kanes rule with a hedonistic but iron fist. Lex has been at the top for years, and there's almost nothing she wouldn't do for the gang...and for its leader. Lie, steal, kill - but she bows to no one, not even Dallas O'Kane.
Dallas fought long and hard to carve a slice of order out of the chaos of the sectors. Dangers both large and small threaten his people, but it's nothing he can't handle. His liquor business is flourishing and new opportunities fuel his ambition. Lex could help him expand his empire, something he wants almost as much as he wants her. And no one says no to the king of Sector Four.
Falling into bed is easy, but their sexual games are anything but casual. Attraction quickly turns to obsession, and their careful dance of heady dominance and sweet submission uncovers a need so deep, so strong, it could crush them both.

I loved that sex is so fluid in these books. No one is judged for what they like or want. It is open and celebrated.
I wish we did get more of the world and why there are sectors and what that means. I hope we learn sooner rather than later.
The narration is ok she is growing on me.

What did you love best about Beyond Control?
I love that Lex is a strong, independent woman who has fought for that independence. She's a leader in Sector Four who is respected by the men and the women. Lex definitely pushes Dallas to make a move instead of circling around their obvious attraction. Dallas hides his intelligence at times, and he can be very possessive.What was one of the most memorable moments of Beyond Control?
I loved when Lex's new tattoo was revealed and the chain of events that tattoo ignites. And it was about time, too!What does Lucy Malone bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Lucy Malone brings emotion to the characters. I really enjoyed how Lucy Malone moderated her voice for each of the different characters.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Lust, obsession, violence. and power...the King has met his match.Any additional comments?
I love this series! I would highly recommend reading or listening to any of the books and novellas in the Beyond series.Love Dallas and Lex!

This is romance and erotica, but with a developing plot... The events continue right where book 1 left off, but this time it's Dallas and Lex!
We get to see Lex interacting with the people from her old sector (sector 2), and watch as Dalls takes over literally 3 sectors by the end...
The smex is soooooo long... and drawn out in place... I perferred the story better in place and smex in others.
Well worth the credit or sale... Not a buy though because it pretty expensive.
Narration was great!
Great sequel

Book 2 sees two alphas battling for control. Normally, I fault the romantic conflict for a failure to communicate, but here the bigger problem is the story-to-naughty ratio. Compared to book 1, there is a little more world building and a little more backstory for Dallas and Lexi. For instance, we learn about Lexi’s escape from prostitution in Sector Two and discover that Sector Five is the drug sector. However, this is still 10% dystopian story, 20% romance, and 70% hawty-nawty. No joke; the naughty is non-stop and creative. You’d think the kink variety in book 1 was a lot… and yet this book adds toys, butt-stuff and a six-way. It was delicious, however, it was also desensitizing. I think I’d have preferred less naughty and more story.
Although there’s gangs, tattoos, and a lot of dominating dirty talk, this is not Dark Romance.
This is a plus for me because I’m not into mafia, MC, or thug-life romance; I like my guys to be alpha in the sheets but heroes on the streets. The “gang” violence is more the Mad Max justice-type than the criminal-enterprise-type. More importantly, this series, with all its down and dirty kink, is nonetheless always consensual.
Ms. Malone is a great narrator. My slight criticism is that all of her gals, and all of her guys, sound the same. When some of the other characters get small POV chapters (like Jasper or Brendan), they sound just like Dallas. Given that the author duo’s writing doesn’t spend much time differentiating the characters, the narrator’s lack of voice differentiation makes the huge cast of H/h pairs hard to tell apart.
These are solid, erotic listens. Book 3 gets even better with the story-to-naughty ratio, not by easing up on the smut, but instead by increasing the story-arc about Sector Four’s battle for power against the other Sectors. I also like book 3 best of the first three because Six is the first female MC who has skills beyond being sexy and feisty. My biggest disappointment for these books is the lack of gals in independent leadership, technology, or warrior positions. These books are still on the whole gal-positive, but they could be more (the Mercenary Librarian spin-off does gal-power a bit better and is romance rather than erotica). I’m not sure there’s enough to carry me through the entire series, but I enjoyed the first three enough to buy later books when they go on sale.
A six-way and slightly more story
