Pros & Cons of Desire by A.E. Wasp
3.0
I enjoyed the other books a great deal but this one was a disappointment. I didn't mind jumping back and forth in time from one chapter to the next, but there were some important details in the plot that were inexplicably missing. I have no idea how a major part of Leo's rescue happened because it was just never shown.
Same thing happened with the big climax. We get the general idea of what happened during the showdown with the baddie, but then BAM! The scene ends and the next thing we see is everyone out of danger and there's an odd visit from a friend that wraps everything up...I guess? Then cue the epilogue that felt more like a plug for the Christmas book than a wrap up.
So yeah. There was a lotta bad BUT I still loved Charlie and Leo. They were sweet and smokin' hot. That said, I'll still be reading the Christmas story coming out in November and hoping for a return to the kind of clever plots and engaging writing that hooked me on this series to begin with.
