The Hunted Heir by Holly Renee
3.0
“𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞.”
—----
Another anticipated reads/ releases/ sequel of mine which arc I really did manifested.
The novel starts right after the part where the first book .. So obviously, it's gonna be thrilling and intense.
I think the strength of this novel is that the writing is quite engaging and, at the same time, the type to make the readers really anticipate and a page turner.
Another thing is the spice. Author Holly Renee, as my experience with their fantasy romances, the spice scenes were really well written, so do expect that those parts will gonna deliver.
My issue on this is the lack of character developments of our FMC. I was quite frustrated how weak she was. I mean, I understand the situation, but it feels like she's just not trying. And I'm honestly worried about how she'll go in the next book.
Although the MMC did have a little development? I just felt that it wasn't enough? The grovelling or redemption part felt short for me. Still, there was a little development on his part.
Another thing is the fact that this book IS REALLY RUSHED. Even if it was engaging, you can really feel that the novel was way too rushed? There's also parts or phrases I don't find necessary, which felt like it was constructed out of need to make it wordy?I'm sure what happened, but it was abrupt for me. It's quite awkward as well at some point.
There's also no world-building here nor anymore further delving into the magic system, which was also a letdown, in my opinion
Overall, I think this could have been better. WAY BETTER IN ALL HONESTY. More world-building, character developments, and the magic system. I REALLY HOPE THE 3RD ONE DELIVER.
I think I'll be generous with my 3⭐️ since I was still entertained by the novel despite the issues. I still have hopes for the 3rd book.
Thank you, author, for the e-arc opportunity via Valentine Pr.
