I used seven month on this book. That should show you how boring it is. 

ALL SPOILERS BELOW

 I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaate the pregnancy plot. I called it from the second we heard about her first symptoms. How stupid is Sasha supposed to be?? How can you not understand that you're 15 weeks preggo when you're having unprotected se x̌ every second of the day??? 

I also hate the miscommunication plot with all my heart. The end could have come half way through the second book if Kirill and Sasha just talked to each other.
 And Kirill is just abusive and doesn't have a redeeming bone in his body. We get an explanation on why he is the way he is, but it doesn't excuse his actions.

wie bei jedem teil dieser reihe war die erste hälfte GOOOOD like actually SO GOOD

sasha in ihrer badass-era
faking her death UND IHRE MISSION, KIRILL ZU TÖTEN??? kirill währenddessen going absolutely crazy, ist kein funktionierender mensch mehr; CRAVING AND MOURNING HER
- let me tell you, i ate that shit up

das wiedersehen der beiden OH MEIN GOTT I WAS SCREAAAAAMINGG

die zweite hälfte war dann langweilig leider - habe alle plottwists geguessed und für die letzten 100 seiten mehrere tage gebraucht, weil ich es einfach nicht mehr spannend fand.
anton & maksim haben den letzten part wirklich gecarried & ich wünschte, es hätte mehr content von ihnen gegeben :(


wie hat kirill es geschafft, sich als pakhan zu beweisen, all he did was fucking sasha and crying
(wie konnte er wochenlang mit sasha in einer hütte chillen, obwohl er der anführer der mafia ist? make it make sense)


i fully lost it, als er ihr einen tracker einsetzen lassen hat BOY WHAT THE FUCKKKK das hat mich gebrochen 

babushka war der nervigste fucking character der welt ahhh i hated her so much

und dann the MYSOGYNY -
wieso wird es einfach so hingenommen, dass ria nicht pakhan werden kann, weil SIE EINE FRAU IST? sorry aber ridiculous. dann dass yulia einfach als böseste frau dargestellt wurde - yes she treated her kids like shit aber ihre jahrelange geschichte mit sexual abuse wurde irgendwie so unter den tisch gekehrt?? wieso darauf nicht nochmal eingehen?
war enttäuscht 

das ende war süß und die reihe war storywise echt in ordnung; hatte nur absolut untragbare momente??? definitiv better dark romance, gibt aber noch VIEL luft nach oben

(pluspunkt war, dass kirill in den letzten 5 seiten herausgefunden hat, DASS SASHA NICHT DIE GESAMTE ZEIT EINEN SCHEIẞ LOVER IN RUSSIS HATTE AHHHH)

I am not a fan of miscommunication (something that this series is rife with) but I was just too damn happy about Sasha getting her backbone back & Kirill being enamored with her to care.

I need a book about Anton + Maksim raising Mike.

Although I liked the start, with Sasha and Kirill conflict in true enemies to lovers fashion, and the drama Kristina created (loved that plot twist) I struggled a bit half way trough, I just wasn't that invested. The final pages picked up, but the final reveal was a bit too easy for me. In the end is a romcen book, I shouldn't be looking way too much into the plot, but I would have liked for it not to be as rushed as it felt. I'm happy this was my first (and probably only) Rina Kent series
