Book Review! Corded by Alyssa Rose Ivy

Corded (Corded Saga #1) by Alyssa Rose Ivy
Genre: New Adult (Dystopian/Romance)
Date Published: January 12, 2017
Publisher: Self

In a world where women are commodities, the only thing more rare than finding true love is a happy ending.

Kayla is in hiding—her only crime being born a girl in a society of 99 percent men. When her sister and niece are kidnapped, she is willing to do anything to save them. Kayla ventures into the dangerous streets of the city, a place where a woman can be claimed by anyone unless she has been marked by a club.

Desperate, she turns to Mason, a powerful club leader whose help comes at a cost—her freedom. 

Corded is the first book in the Corded saga by Alyssa Rose Ivy. There have been some books with a similar premise that I've read over the years, but I always love it when the story has that Alyssa Rose Ivy touch. Kayla is a fantastic character. She is family first at all costs, even all costs to herself. The romance didn't go in the direction I was expecting at all, and I absolutely loved that. It was a fairly quick romance, considering the situation, but I think I'm really going to like these two as the story progresses and I get to know them better. I'm starting to feel their chemistry, and I'm already worried about them, and wondering what their futures will bring in this brutal world. This is a different kind of story than what I've read by Alyssa in the past. It's darker and more tragic, and it's the first of her worlds that I don't want to live in, but I'm loving it for all those reasons.
