I liked this book, but...
Secondary plot lines were anti-climactic and didn't add a whole lot to the story. I loved catching up with Knight and crew, though.
Sylvie was a take no sh*t kind of girl, sure, but I had a hard time with her as a character. Probably because I was constantly told she was bad-a**, but she gives in constantly to what others want her to do and in action she was always the one who lost. If she is so bad-a**, SHOW me. Creed, I liked. I mean, come on, Kristen Ashley can write an awesome alpha!
Their back story was heart-rending and the reason that I kept reading.
I will definitely continue with this series. I just hope the next one is more like the first.
My least favorite to date in the Unfinished Heroes series. The things that happened to Creed/Sylvie was just to over the top ridiculous to be believable, plus Creed didn't come across as the brightest bulb...
Didn't think anyone would take Lee and Knights place, but Damn Creed you are one sexy man. I have to come back to do this review. All I know is Ms. Ashley NEVER FAILS!!
ok, so i did like this more than knight which is why i originally gave it three stars. however, when i thought about it i didn’t actually feel that much reading about sylvie and creed’s romance. i read ‘if this gets out’ by sophie gonzales and cale dietrich earlier in the week and i remember loosing my mind over all the cute moments between the main characters but that just wasn’t the case with this book (or the first one for that matter).
idk maybe i need a longer kristen ashley break cause all of the books can become quite same-y after a while (and i’ve read about 18 in the last 6 months - though 13 of them were in november alone).
i’m sure i will pick up more kristen ashley books when the mood hits but i’m starting to lose hope that any of them will make me feel the way the rock chick books did.

3.5 stars -- conflicting. I really enjoyed the characters of Sylvie and Creed, but some of the dialogue writing just didn't work for me. Honestly, sometimes it felt like words were missing in the sentences. I don't know if it was supposed to indicate their social status, or...I really don't know. Maybe it's just the way Ms. Ashley writes. But it didn't work for me. And the other action took a long break in the middle that surprised me, and then came back for a really short conclusion. It wasn't what I was expecting. All in all an edgy erotica with a fabulous love part to the story that made up for some of the other idiosyncracies that I didn't enjoy....

Method: ebook
Rating: 5/5 stars
H rating: 5/5 - Creed. Honestly his story broke my heart..his love was so beautiful though..
h rating: 5/5 - Sylvie...holy wow do you make the sisterhood proud.
Drama: 5/5 - The past is probably the biggest hurdle for them throughout this story.
Thoughts: I cried! I cried because I was so heartbroken for these two it was unreal. I know this is fiction, but man did these characters become real to me. They were my friends and I just wanted them to be happy. I was like Charlene for them! I was there and I got Sylvie's anger, her need to be cold, her need to place that stone wall around the castle with the moat and alligators to protect herself..I got it. It sucked that the hits kept coming for her..it sucked that she was practically dead and just going through the motions, making her way through life with 2 people in her life as her confidants, her people, her world. I hated that for her.
Ugh...excuse me while I wipe my tears at the moment and cry for her.
Creed..got did his journey suck..it was tragic. He was also just a man making do with his life..living but not living..until he got those two rays of sunshine..I hated that he used those names. Man did I hate it..but after Anya gave her pov..I got it too..he lived for 16 years without his one and I hated that it was stolen in such a violent and cruel way. I understood his need to to use them.
I hated her father. I hated Richard, I hated his mom and I hated the suffering that came from such a stupid addiction. I hated how she suffered when she found out the truth, it cut them both up so much..it shredded them apart and I FELT that..it did my heart happy to see this through to the end though. To see her let her walls down, to see him break them down with patience and never ending love and his disregard for her wanting time I understood too. When you don't have you soul for the last 16 years, time is not something you want to give up and he made that absolutely clear and I respected him so much for that will. I've shed so many tears for this couple and I am so happy for them.
I am ready for my next KA book, but right now I may need to go clean up my face because I'm a dang snotty mess.
