Series background & context
Bad Men is a compact run of darker romances built around exactly the sort of heroes the title hints at, gangsters, ex-cons, dons, and other men who live outside safe, respectable lines. They are dangerous on paper and fiercely devoted once they choose someone.
The fun of the series is that it never tries to sand those men down into ordinary love interests. Instead, it lets power, crime, and possessive instinct sit right in the middle of the romance while still aiming for a quick, satisfying ending.
