Asher and Bex
In my review of the first book, I said that I wasn’t a fan of only one point of view. I was happy to see this book had multiple POVs.
But, this story really bothered me, and there might be spoilers in this.
While you don’t know exactly why Asher wants to ruin Bex, you do get some inkling early on. You just don’t know “who.” So, they fall in love anyway. Yay. But then, Bex visits her brother and Asher completely loses his mind. Seriously? He is still her family.
Sorry, but I have a problem with this. Yeah, she lied to him, but she lied because she knew he’d get pissed and that shouldn’t have even been a thing.
Her brother did something bad, but at the end of the day, he was still her brother, and it’s not clear that she was set on not having a relationship with him.
