Bonnie’s the standout—a firecracker of a protagonist with a chip on her shoulder and a knack for getting into trouble. Her foil is 'The Marshal,' a lawman who’s not as clean-cut as he seems, and their cat-and-mouse game drives the plot. There’s also 'Doc Holloway,' the group’s morally gray medic who’s seen too much to care about right or wrong anymore. The way these characters play off each other feels raw and real, like they’ve been living in this world forever.
What I love about 'The Ballad of Bonnie Rotten' is how the characters feel like they’ve stepped out of a folk song. Bonnie’s this force of nature, all grit and swagger, but with moments of vulnerability that hit hard. Then there’s 'Reverend Cain,' a preacher with a violent streak who thinks he’s doing God’s work—he’s terrifying because he genuinely believes he’s right. The supporting cast, like 'Lucky Pete,' the gambling addict with a heart of gold, adds levity to the darker themes. It’s a story where everyone’s flawed, and that’s what makes them unforgettable.
Bonnie Rotten’s crew is a mix of chaos and charisma! Bonnie’s the star, obviously—this fierce, scrappy antihero who’s equal parts reckless and brilliant. She’s got this vibe like she’d rob a bank just to prove she can, then donate the money to orphans. Her right-hand man, 'Silas,' is the quiet, deadly type; he rarely speaks, but when he does, it’s usually to drop a one-liner before something explodes. The real wildcard is 'Lady Vex,' a former rival who keeps switching sides—you never know if she’ll save Bonnie or stab her in the back. The chemistry between them all is what makes the story so addictive; it’s like watching a train wreck you can’t look away from.
The Ballad of Bonnie Rotten' has this wild cast that feels like a fever dream in the best way. Bonnie herself is the heart of it—a rebellious, sharp-tongued outlaw with a tragic past that fuels her rage against the system. Then there's 'The Dandy,' her unpredictable partner-in-crime who’s equal parts charming and terrifying, like if a circus performer decided to become a warlord. Their dynamic is messy, full of betrayal and dark humor, but you can’t look away.
Rounding out the core group is 'The Widow,' a former aristocrat turned ruthless vigilante who hunts Bonnie for personal reasons. Her arc is this slow burn of grief and vengeance, and the way she clashes with Bonnie’s chaos makes every scene electric. The side characters—like 'The Judge,' a corrupt lawman with a god complex—add layers to the story’s themes of justice and hypocrisy. It’s one of those stories where even the minor characters leave a mark.
Bonnie’s the heart of the story, but the side characters steal scenes constantly. 'The Fox' is my favorite—a spy who’s always three steps ahead, with a smirk that makes you wonder if he’s helping or conning everyone. The way the group dynamic shifts, especially when 'The Hound' (Bonnie’s estranged brother) shows up, creates this tension that’s impossible to ignore. It’s a character-driven rollercoaster.

If you’re filthy minded, step inside the doors of Dirty Angels and order a drink.
Dirty Angels is a cocktail bar where desire, power, and bad decisions collide. Everyone who walks through its doors is hiding something, and everyone wants something they shouldn’t.
The story unfolds through rotating points of view, each character given five chapters at a time to reveal the dirty business they’re involved in. Mafia deals. Billionaire secrets. Bad boys with dangerous appetites. Obsessions that refuse to stay buried. Each arc can be read on its own, but together they weave into a larger, darker story as the full truth behind Dirty Angels slowly comes into focus.
At the centre are Marisol and Ethan, locked in a volatile enemies-to-lovers dynamic neither of them is willing to name. Around them orbit lovers, rivals, and predators: a mafia ex who won’t let go, a billionaire with too much power, a shark lawyer who knows exactly where the bodies are buried, and a found family bound together by loyalty, desire, and shared secrets.
Dirty Angels attracts those who crave the forbidden. Boundaries blur. Power shifts hands. Desire takes many forms, and not everyone is looking for love.
Some will find it anyway.
Others will burn everything down on the way.
Tropes & Themes:
Enemies to lovers • MM • MMF • FF • Power dynamics • Daddy energy • Age gap (all adults) • Step-relations (adults) • BDSM themes • Obsession • Found family • Dark desire

Bonnie Dundee' is one of those historical novels that sticks with you, partly because of its vivid characters. The protagonist is Hugh Montgomerie, a young Scottish man caught between loyalty to his family and his growing sympathy for the Jacobite cause. His internal conflict drives much of the story, and his journey from naivety to conviction feels incredibly real. Then there’s Jean, his love interest, who’s fiercely independent and sharp-witted—she’s not just a romantic foil but a fully realized character with her own political stakes. The antagonist, Claverhouse, is fascinating too; he’s ruthless but not cartoonishly evil, with motives that make him almost tragic.
What I love about 'Bonnie Dundee' is how these characters aren’t just historical cutouts. They’re messy, flawed, and deeply human. Even secondary figures like Hugh’s father or the various Jacobite rebels have moments that make them memorable. The novel does a great job of balancing personal drama with the larger political upheaval of the era. Every time I reread it, I notice new nuances in how their relationships evolve.
