I was recommended this and was told that if I liked the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich... not true. The only similarities are: they both have and FMC and that FMC goes after bad guys. That's it.
The flow was a bit slow and there were some times that a scene would happen and end suddenly then move on without coming back or addressing what happened. Then there were a couple of scenes where I guess the past was overlapping with the present but it was just confusing. This is also duel POV with Sun and her daughter, Auri. I like Auri, Cruz, and Levi... not really a fan of Sun.
Sun is supposed to be a mother of a 14 year old, in her 30s, and a good law enforcment person. All together giving you the idea of a somewhat mature person, but she is not. Every male law enforcement person she comes across is hot. EVERY ONE. But she is stuck on her high school crush/love but for some reason is not open to the posibility even after there are some indication that he is open to it.
There is an overarcing story that apparently goes through all 3 books before you find out everything and it is resolution but each book has a smaller case that is solved in the one book. I don't know if I am invested enough to continue to finish the series. If I do it will be for Auri, Cruz, and Levi.
