A The Disciples & Five Points’ Mob Collection Crossover
She was an assignment.
A selfish brat who’d run away from home and who’d found refuge in an MC.
A spoiled pain in my ass that I had to bring back to Daddy.
Only, Isabelle is nothing like the picture my initial research painted. Yes, she’s a brat. Yes, she’s insecure. And yes, she’s a Disciple…sort of.
But she’s so much more than that. So broken, yet so hopeful.
So lost, yet so eager to be found.
I found her.
But that means her father has too. Taking her home was supposed to repay a favor owed.
I just didn’t realize that home was the most dangerous place in the world for her…

MY REVIEW
I’m a huge fan of Cassandra Robbins and couldn’t have been more excited about the Disciples and Five Points’ Mob Collection crossover. Filthy Disciple is a fast-paced, insta-love romance that will keep readers on their toes.
Cindy, also known as Isabelle or Belle to her friends, has been living a lie and hiding from her past while staying with the Disciples MC. She’s broken, a complete mess, and has the worst luck. She can’t stop messing things up and unfortunately for her, her luck has finally run out. You see, Cade has been keeping an eye on Cindy. He’s been slowly biding his time until the right moment comes and he’s able to convenience Cindy to return to New York with him. Cindy was supposed to a job, but the more time Cade spends with her, the more he starts to question everything….
I thought this book was an enjoyable read. It hit the ground running and I loved the instant chemistry between Cade and Cindy. Their story was intense and filled with lots of tension, sexy good times, and danger. I loved how imperfect Cindy was. She was a screw-up, a hot mess, and she knew it. She had a lot of issues and needed more support than what she got. And when it comes to Cade, there wasn’t much he wouldn’t do for Five Points even though he had his fair share of demons. Together, these two lost souls were perfect for each other.
All that being said, because of the fast pace, there were some things that didn’t quite mesh for me. I would have liked to have seen Cindy dive deeper into her demons and get the help she needed to work on herself. I also had a hard time with Cindy’s connection to the MC. Unfortunately, I didn’t really remember her character from the previous Disicple books and had a hard time believing that the women of the MC were truly her friends. Yes, Cindy was a screw-up but the way they treated her was really off-putting. I would also have liked to have seen a little more groveling at the end of the story. I felt like that whole part of the story was rushed and just left me wanting more.
Overall, this book was a fun read for me. I enjoyed getting lost in Cade and Cindy’s story. Sure, there were some parts that didn’t quite mesh for me, but in the end, it was a solid read and I’m glad to have checked it out.
