So much spice, it’s getting old. I only wanted to see how the characters from the first book developed.

This series is the first one that represents healthy communication for me. Usually I have to resist shouting 'just tell him you feel that way!' to romance books. Whereas here, they do just that and work through it. It's refreshing. The banter is awesome! The teasing, the 'touch her and die' and the 'you'll be safe with me' (both ways!) made me smile throughout the entire book. Loved it and can't wait to read the next one in this series!

I love Garrett and Jennie. So much. Even more than Carter and Olivia.

My only major complaint is that the book should’ve been shorter. While I loved the characters very much, several parts of the story were so slow, and some of the conflict and dialogue were unnecessarily repetitive.
