A review by jz_reads
Forsaken by B.B. Hamel, Willow Winters

dark emotional tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

basically identical to willow winters' all he'll ever be, but the plot is simpler, grace has a nicer jail cell, and gio isn't as mean to her during sex. it starts out kinda boring, but the plot gets more fast-paced and kept me interested for the second half of the book. i wish i got to read more mafia/crime stuff and less angsty foreplay, but we can't all have what we want, right? the couple was mid---didn't feel super emotionally invested or attached to either of them. whoops.
