I am writing this review with a heavy heart.
I absolutely loved the first book in the series so when I was offered the chance to review the second book, I was thrilled. Alas, I am sad because I didn’t enjoy the book as much as I wanted to. It’s truly disheartening L
Yes, the story was completely amazing and the heat level is off the charts! Yes, there is action, excitement, danger with war on the horizon. And yes, the characters are engaging and the plot is brilliantly crafted. So why wasn’t I head over heels in love with this book? I honestly don’t have the answer.
The story started off a little unexpectedly and I had a difficult time getting into it. I think my expectations were too high and when those expectations weren’t met, I ended up disappointing myself and doing a great disservice to the author and the story. I’d like to re-visit it at a later date to see if I can capture the love I felt while reading the first book.
