KA normally really does it for me. She does relationships with alpha males so well and I generally have a good time in the story. While there are parts of this story I liked there were a lot of things that fell flat.
Hattie grew up a dancer with a dad that maybe drove her a little too hard and still does. She definitely has some daddy and self worth issues. Axl has been circling her for awhile now and has been shot down enough to think it is time to move on. But after finding out Hattie when to Brett for help when she has a stalker he is back in the game.
The relationship is cute overall. I always root for the couple and we have had a lot of preamble in the other books so I was all for the lets just get to it part of the story. It was just everything else that fell so flat. Hattie's dad relationship, just resolved pretty easily after a lot of years of abuse. The stalker thing was a huge nothing burger, there is some side story stuff with dirty cops that seems to spill over to some of KA's other series but no much of it was done in this book. Also that will be ongoing as well in the overlaying arc going into the next story.
If you like appearances from other characters from Rock Chick and others then you will get a fair share of cameos but if you wanted a strong story that stood a little on its own this one might fall short. The relationship part of the story I enjoyed mostly but the tension that I expect from a KA book just seemed to miss the mark a bit.
