Devil's Cut by J.R. Ward

I felt like the twist in this book should have been seen but I didn't expect it and I am a little disappointed that I didn't expect it.
Also, hella rushed book.
Seriously, you're going to make Lane's "momma" be the actual killer? Like come on, that is ridiculous. You're trying to convince me that a woman, an elderly woman who is on her way out had the strength to drag a grown man into her trunk and throw him over the river? Come on, really?
And the injustice that is Maxwell's character, like come the hell on bro. What was the point of bringing him in if you weren't going to do anything interesting with that character? I get that he was holding this big secret in from his siblings, but it seemed so insignificant in comparison to the whole story as a whole that it just felt like he was complaining the whole time. And his barely their romance, that could've been cute, but it was so rushed. And the flipping thing with Gin was both satisfying and lacking. Like she for sure grew as a character with telling the truth about her daughter, can't remember his name but I do like his character...crap, whatever her baby dads name is. And then Edward! I mean I like the fact that he was trying to do something nice but come on dude, you didn't have to be such an asshole to Sutton. And their story also felt rushed. Everything was rushed and was wrapped too "nicely" that it left some unrealistic taste in my mouth. I liked the series as a whole but I would've preferred the central couple to have been any other sibling or just not as focused on Lizzie and Lane.
