Absolute Power is the first book of the Absolute Power Duet by Jeana E. Mann.

Told in dual perspectives , this book revolves around a dark twisted romance that takes birth from an act of thievery.

This was my first book by this author and I am moderately impressed. There were many things that I absolutely loved about this book , but there were also a few negatives that had me deducting stars from my review.

In this book we get to meet Cash and Jagger. Cash , the male lead of the book is an ex-gang leader who is now a businessman. He may have seemed to leave his gang life behind , but his tactics of business haven't changed in the slightest. He is a ruthless owner of a chain of businesses ranging from a jewellery store to a nightclub. 

Jagger , the female lead of the book is an owner of a jewellery store , where she designs her own custom jewelry. Jagger's sister used to work for Cash and stole from him. In his trail to catch her, he stumbles upon Jagger. From the moment they both met each other, sparks literally flew. 

However , Jagger wasn't that all pleased to meet her. He demands the full amount of money from her that her sister stole from him. Jagger too stole a ring from him , whose design she wanted to replicate (another thing I found odd) . He wanted her to pay for that too. 

There was one major thing that I hated about this hero, and that was his ruthlessness to get his money out of Jagger. At first I thought he would forgive the debt. But , no matter how much he saw Jagger's struggles to collect his beloved money, he didn't change his mind. Why did he even care about money?? I mean he was so rich. It was a bit confusing for me and just spoiled my mood throughout the story. However the second part of the story is yet to come , so I can't really place my judgements. 

This book is recommended to all the dark romance lovers , who are addicted to themes like blackmail and dark romance.
