Macky and Mo over at Sinfully Sexy Book Reviews reviewed each episode of LRBB. If you’re game, read The Alley review here.
Fucking hell, Bad Campion. Well, what say you, red hots? Is Bad twisted-bad or twisted-just right?

So. Bad has control issues, also despite his internal monologue he is falling for the kid. I would like to hear reds monologue, it would help me classify if he is being abused or not. He certainly gets off on doing risky things but also the freedom of following orders.
Uh o Big Bad is starting to care for Red and it's getting to be more than a hook up. Despite him saying that he would have to let the kid go if he didn't follow orders this time I don't think he could do it. Big Bad is talking tough and maybe acting a bit rash in what he told Red to do, trying to reassure himself he has control. Has he pushed Red too far, he fears he has but doesn't wasn't to admit that fear 'he could have said stop'. Tough guy Big Bad doesn't show fear or have insecurities, but they are rising to the surface now. I don't think Red realises he really has the key to this relationship with his concent. Can't wait for the next part, come on Red show Bad whose really the boss.
Great as always Kris.
I lost two comments (they may yet show up…I can see them on the sidebar, but they aren't here!) So I'll repost them and delete this later if they appear!

I'm just thinking about adjectives.
Red is brave. Laying out his very valid concerns to Bad? Love that.
Bad? My first thought is that he's an ass. The way he talks to Sue? (Love that she's so tough.) My second word – bravado. He really is putting on a show for Red and for himself. (But that doesn't make him less of an ass.)
Totally agree with @Dolphin91! I would also like to hear more of Red's thoughts. I had problems posting to so if this shows up 2x sorry.
Am I the only person who has no empathy for Red? Bad has so many more levels to his character. His motivation is so mysterious and complicated. Red is beige to me at this point. He could be anyone. Meh, get ass-finger wiped kid, I don't feel for him. Maybe his internal monologue would help, but I'm worried it would just annoy me and I would end up rooting against him.
My only thought seems to be……..maybe Red has something else going on and that's why he's not at work. Why does Bad automatically jump to the conclusion that it was because of what happened at Spark and in the alley???
