A well rounded selection
I enjoyed reading these wide variety of romance genres. Some of them introducing me to stories and authors I would not normally read but found very interesting. Most of the stories were well written and had complex characters and plots. Some of the stories had me scratching my head and there were a couple that needed detailed grammatical editing. Over all, it was an enjoyable compilation of books.

This is my review and how I see it. Breaking Bad: 14 Tales of Lawless Love by various authors. Some stories in this book are excellent reads. While I found myself scanning through others hoping to find a connection. Some authors will inform there is more to come later in for the story in the future.
Sharon Cooper: Indebted ~ An oh so bad boy cop and a good girl ADA.
Eve Vaughn: His Favorite ~ Two of the most unlikely people met again, under a set of circumstances one stole from the other and the other attempts to exact their payment but finds that they cannot leave the other be.
Caitlin Dare: Notorious ~ A bad boy actor who is really a boy scout in disguise.
A.M. Griffin: Dangerously Theirs ~ It was not my cup of tea. Can't go into detail without spoilers.
LaQuette: Bedding The Enemy ~ Two bosses in bed together literally, yet they have no idea that they are really enemies or are they.
Bridget Midway: Drive Her ~ The lead characters to have a history and secrets are revealed that will turn one of the character's life upside down.
Billy London: Hideout ~ I just could not get into this story.
Shyla Colt: Debt Collector's Due ~ I love these types of stories, star-crossed lovers, and secrets.
Theodora Taylor: His To Possess ~ These two know each other; however, one is more aware of their past than the other.
Victoria H. Smith: One Hit ~ Good girl gets her bad boy.
Nia K. Foxx: His For The Taking ~ A paranormal read, a good one.
Xyla Turner: Rectified ~ A what's a girl to do when faced with death, what will a man do when he took her last hope.
S.W. Frank: Bad Things Good Killers Do ~ The loss of a family can do things to a young mind, but the scent of a woman can do even more. My first read by the author, just wished that this is one of the books that would be followed up with more.
KoKo Brow: Star-Crossed ~ A never-ending cycle and this story does not end here. I could not really get into the characters. The female is stubborn and the man initially was (to me) weak.

I happily received an advance copy of this set for review. I have enjoyed stories from a number of authors here - Koko, Bridget, Nia and Shyla in particular - so I knew to expect some quality heat. This is fine collection of stories that mix romance and suspense with the outlaw/bad boy hero theme. It's a style that is growing on me, but if you love the mafia/reformed outlaw type of hero this is for you.
Bridget Midway's "Drive Her" and Caitlin Daire's "Notorious" are two standouts for me, the latter because I do like Hollywood set stories.
