Summary (from Goodreads):
Lennox used to live in a paradise on earth with
his best friend Jamie, in a place where visitors came and went, allowing their
desires to run free. But everything changes when a deadly attack forces them to
take up with Connor Mackenzie’s band of Outlaws. Lennox knows Jamie is hung up
on someone else, but he’s always believed he’s the man for her—and won’t let
her go without a fight.
Even though Jamie is well aware that Lennox is one hot specimen of a man, she refuses to let sex ruin the most important relationship in her life. But when the object of her interest spurns her, she indulges in a little pleasure-filled revenge with her very magnetic, very willing best friend. One thrilling night with Lennox is enough to awaken Jamie’s unexpected desires for him. And now that she’s had a taste, she’s not sure she can ever give him up...

Review:
There are hardly words to describe my love of this world
Elle Kennedy has created with the Outlaws
series, and with ADDICTED (book 2), it just gets better and more layered.
Friends-turned-lovers is my absolutely favorite of
favorite tropes. I love when there’s a backstory and foundation for a
relationship, and that’s exactly what Kennedy gives us with Jamie and Lennox.
The sparks between these two are enough to set the entire town ablaze. The
evolution of their relationship isn’t without its problems and flaws, which
they work hard to overcome.
While this is a romance, there is an overall plot binding
all the books together. This is very much a dystopian series with a twisted
government at the helm that the outlaws are trying to stop. Or at least
survive.
Full of seriously sexy times and a cast a characters that
will amuse, wow, and leave you gasping for more, the Outlaws series is one of my absolute favorites.
