This book was one of my highly
anticipated releases this year and I had high expectations.
The book was okay, suspense behind the one shot is revealed and we get more of Lucca's background (sorta not much). But after the long wait of more than 4-5 years I expected more inclusion of other characters. It was fine to finally read Lucca and Chloe's happy ending but the second epilogue was just unnecessary and ridiculous. Is it just me or I feel like the writing is completely different from the first book Nero?
Overall I think the series should have ended on book 5 and I probably won't read another book in this series or by the author..
( Reviewed it again after an year it didn't not age well unfortunately)

Well….
I mean I read it.
Lol I legit don’t know what to say. I’m disappointed. I don’t understand why the quality of books has gone down. Surely it should go up as you write more things? Idk.
Yer nothing really happened. Lucca, as much as I wanted to love him, it was just kinda bland. They were never together. And like Lucca didn’t do anything this whole damn book. Like where’s the boogieman? Like why isn’t he shooting people or torturing them? Or like being scary? Like nothing. And like honestly, Chloe just kinda annoyed me. I feel like she was trying to be this like paragon on purity and virtue but also like have a backbone too and it just was not working. She was kinda hella annoying. Like if Lucca is as scary as he is and you’re super protected then you don’t really need to be a badass. Like stick with being ‘innocent’. The problem with that was that she just came across as stupid. Like she was like my parents died in a freak gas explosion, like right after starting to date Lucca, and she believes it? Like hun… c’mon. And her at the end being like Lucca would never lie to me. But he ain’t telling you the truth either. She was meant to love all of him. Not just the side that gives her foot rubs? I kinda hated that. Like she doesn’t really know him and he can’t trust her with his life.
I feel like I also would have liked some closure with Cassius too. Like he was like oh I care for that kid. Then he’s legit never mentioned again? They are legit family in this book? Why isn’t he in the meetings or something?
Idk this book had a lot of gaps. And like why is Chloe studying pre-law? Like what inspired that? Why is she even at school? I’m so confused my dudes.
I was kinda excited to read this one so I’m super disappointed. I really loved Luccas first book so I don’t get why this one is so far off.
Also the weird dragon thing at the end? If that wasn’t some weird version of heaven then what was it? Does that mean Lucca and Chloe don’t have an afterlife together? Cos they are like other people? Idk man. I’m confused.
Maybe I’ll reread the good ones lol. Might not read the next one if there is another.

Příjemné rozšíření série. Je hezké, jak lucca všechno kontroluje a pak zase ne.
Why? Just why?
I honestly expected a lot from the Author. No spicy scenes fine... But then I found no story here. Somewhere I feel like she destroyed her characters.
Not worth reading and having a heart break...

I liked. Enjoyed reading the story parts that involved Lucca but was bored with Chloe's college life and wedding preparation scenes. The story pacing was off as there were many parts that flipped from one scene to another without any explanation or showing the progression of 'One Shots' identification. It's just dropped in my lap, One Shots identification and reason for shootings. Why was the scene of Lucca feeding a nice juicy steak to Lucifer lingered on if we were not told why? Was he fed "One Shot" since they had a connection to Luccas's mothers' death? Why is Lucifer still alive? I wait to see if I will ever get Leo or Cassio's story. "
