Good Gone Bad (Fallen MC, #3)

by Giana Darling

[Eve1972]

Unpopular opinion alert...I was SO very much looking forward to this book, but I think it fell victim to the end of the year funk I seem to be in. Or maybe my expectations were too high after how much I loved the first two books. It wasn't a bad book by any stretch. Hence why I am giving it 3-Stars. It was still a very well written book. The sex was SMOKIN' hot. The plot was engaging. Although there were a few things that didn't quite make sense to me in regard to Danner being undercover. I also felt the plot was a little all over the place at times. The characters (both primary and secondary) were well developed and interesting. The ending was sweet. All positives things...that said, it was my least favorite book of the series.





I didn't like the set up with the other women stuff. I feel like this is me being super picky, but it was in my face a bit too much and bothered me. I wasn't a fan that Larkin was Harleigh Rose's friend and had been banging Danner while he was undercover, and that he had to continue pretending that she was his old lady, which meant having her sit on his lap and kissing her in front of others. Not to mention on top of that he was also banging a cop for two years. I am not even sure what the point was with this since it added NOTHING at all to the story and literally went NOWHERE. I am not sure why the author felt Danner needed to be romantically involved with TWO different OW. It was just a bit too much for me and lessened my enjoyment of both the story and Danner as a hero (especially with the douchey way he ended things with the cop).

On top of that, I wasn't a huge fan of the flashbacks. There wasn't too many of them, but they weirded me out a bit because in most of them Harleigh Rose is super young. So we would get a flashback scene between her and Danner (who is ten years older than her), then move to the present where they would be having kinky ass sex. It was a bit...I don't know...creepy? Weird? Jarring?





In any case, as I said, it wasn't a bad book, I think my mood played a major role in my feelings about this one for sure. So do keep that in mind when deciding if you want to read this one or not.
