Like I said on the review of the second book, this series is unbearable. I wish it wasn't, it had potential, but it wasn't meant to be for me.

The authors forget what their own characters look and act like, characterization is all over the place, plot is meandering and without complexity, the instalove and instalust is irritating, actual real-life history is blatantly ignored and disregarded, and everything is overexplained, immature, and ridiculous.

On another ridiculous note, more fucking nicknames were added in this installment in addition to the 16 others in book 1 and 2, making the total now 23 nicknames:

Little hellcat, honey, little warrior,
dulcissima, mate, mea vita, meum cor.

I'm sure book 4 and 5 include new iterations, but I'm gonna sit this one out, folks. They aren't worth my time.

Happy reading, Goodreads fiends.

Ugh! Do you ever read that one book that drags on for way too long and then drops a ton of lore and plot in the last 30-50 pages that makes you wish they hadn't spent the past 200 giving you nothing? Yeah? Well this was that book for me...... Ugh, roll on the next one but I'm starting to lose hope with this series, I want the tense badass-ery of the first book back.
SpoilerI want actual action and fight scenes and sexual tension of the highest order, not sitting around in a house whining while still doing nothing while having as much un-interesting sex as possible. Does this class as a spoiler? I tagging it anyway

I struggled with this as I found the FMC quite annoying. I may continue the series but for now I'm taking a break

Loved this book. It always has a lot of action and romance. Her vampire was not happy either.
