Losing Control by Riley Hart
4.0
I have mixed feelings about this one. I'd give 5 stars on some parts but had to rate down for others. There are times I want to put this down but still intrigued enough to go on. In the end, I love Ben and Dante. Ben deserves all the happiness.
MAJOR SPOILER ALERT!
I honestly didn't like how the story resorted to having Mateo kill Ben's dad. It just didn't sit right with me. Even though Mateo's been pushing this agenda of revenge for Ben and the Congressman's victims, his death could've went another route, though the motherfucker deserved to die. And yet, if it was me, I wouldn't have wanted another blood spilling Teo's hand. We saw him suffer enough from the implications of his past actions as a gang member so I didn't see the point why he had to claim a life again this time. There could've been another way. And then that's it? I knew it would deviate from the story but there could've been investigations or something. I'd be worried for Mateo. He just killed a big rig out there.
Anywayyy... they all ended up happy. And that's what we all want. Overall, even though not as much as the previous books, still love this.
