The Monster by L.J. Shen
1.0

Aisling and Sam had SO much potential - but it fell kinda flat for me?

I was expecting these two to be the superior couple in the Boston Belle’s series but they didn’t even get close.

This wasn’t the book I had been looking forward to, and the ‘mafia’ elements were a let down. To go from Troy Brennan to this? Aisling wasn’t the strong, female character that we were promised, and Sam definitely wasn’t the monster.

Moments with Sailor, Hunter and the gang were the main highlights for me. I guess I’m just sad because I had such high hopes for this book, and it just let me down.

Updated to 2 stars because the more I think about it, the more I’m disappointed.
