Quizás una estrella es poco, pongamos estrella y media XD
Una gran decepción, me esperaba más del libro ya que he leído otras cosas de la autora que me han gustado mucho. Creo que se podría haber llevado mejor toda la trama, o mejor dicho meterle trama ... porque el libro se reduce a sexo, sexo, sexo y sexo hasta llegar a cansar, y es una pena porque plantea una distopía interesante, nada nueva, pero que podría haber dado juego, por esto mismo es probable que en el futuro le de una oportunidad a los próximos libros, para ver como avanza la cosa aunque no haya tenido un buen comienzo.
La pareja protagonista creo que también ha sido parte del problema, que por separado me gustan más que juntos, él macho alfa que la trata como una mierda y ella básicamente se deja pisotear y se arrastra desde el minuto uno, suplicando por sexo y atención :/
Bueno, pues como ya dije antes leeré algo más porque hay personajes interesantes y me gusta el mundo distopico que muestran, pero si van todos en la misma linea...

Ripping through all of EK’s books and having a blast. Low rating isn’t a reflection of the writing, EK is a great romance writer, it’s a reflection of my emotional connection (just sex bb)
I liked the concept of this book, but I was so muddled during the entire book, as it was written in third-person and had lots of characters. I always struggle with keeping track of who’s who with this type of narrative, but for some reason this one was really hard to follow along with.
Per the author’s usual, I love her characters and overall stories… but this one missed the mark for me.

3.25-3.5 stars. This was a pretty good book. This is the story of Hudson and Connor. In this dystopian society, there are Enforcers and Outlaws. Hudson is the sister to one of the main leaders, Dominick, and she is on the run, feeling from an arranged marriage to one of the head Enforcers, the evil Knox. Connor is the head of a group of Outlaws, who are trying to survive and hoping to take down Dominick. Hudson meets their group and begs to come along with them. She and Connor are instantly attracted to each other, but Connor doesn't want to distraction and headache she will bring to the group. But he feels guilty and the other Outlaws agree that she can join their group. Things heat up between Connor and Hudson back at their camp as they settle into life. They begins to trust each other and let their guards down. But Hudson is keeping who she is from the group and everything falls apart once they find out. Connor has a sad history and he has to decide if he can let go of his quest for revenge and open his heart again to Hudson. They have to also survive Knox and the Enforcers search for Hudson as well.
I knew from reading other reviews what I was getting into with this book. This is dystopia written in a world where there isn't much to do besides casual sex and try to survive. So, yes, there is a lot of sex, but I was not bothered by that. The world building was interesting. It is a very gritty, Wild West type atmosphere. People are doing anything they can to survive -bartering, trading their bodies, etc.. Technology, food, medicines, everything is scarce. I am intrigued by the story and the possibilities for future books. I liked Hudson and Connor together. Their physical relationship was faster but the emotional side was a slow build and it felt realistic. I liked the side characters and the potential for their stories. Overall, I thought this was a good start to a series with an intriguing premise and potential for more good books. I look forward to more from the Outlaws!

I really enjoyed this book! I've read reviews that claimed that there was a lot of sex in this story.
A LOT of sex! Well, there was, but it seemed necessary to me, since sex was the whole basis of their relationship...at first. But, there was also a lot of character and plot development. I really enjoy a good apocalyptic, end-of-the-world story, and I thought this was a good beginning for a truly entertaining one.
I liked all the characters very much, even Pike, and look forward to reading their stories as well.
I have yet to read anything from Elle Kennedy that I didn't enjoy.
