Heartless by W. Winters

4.0

Expect everything you thought you knew about Merciless to be twisted on its head in this book. There are some unexpected twists and turns. The second book in the Merciless series is Heartless. This time, the emphasis is on the push and pull of Carter and Aria's relationship, as well as the growing tension between them. Carter tries to persuade her to follow him as his queen and to recognise that her family needs to be destroyed. Their predicament has no simple solutions, and she is his lone weakness. Although I liked the novel, I felt that, for the most part, the character development took centre stage. Carter's past is explored, allowing us to learn a great deal more about him as a person. I was really excited to read this book after finishing the first one. I required answers for every question I had been left with. While I did receive some answers, I also now need to find the solutions to a few new questions.
