Defending Allye by Susan Stoker
2.0
This book was a NO on so many levels. Starting with the narration. It started out on such a good note.
Why did the narrator keep whispering? The trafficker was evil, disgusting, dangerous, sick, etc., and he has this little girl or female whisper going on. That made everything he did, which was described in more detail than I wanted or needed, even more sickening.
That Allye was willing to thrust herself into danger with a psychopath who had already captured her once was ridiculous.
And what did these Mountain Mercenaries do? I felt like they sat around and waited to be told what to do by Rex. I expected a little more action from them.
The whole "kitten" thing was not cutesy. It was kind of creepy considering TB was keeping "pets". I also felt like considering the subject matter, the MMC was more concerned with his physical needs.
Finally, why with all the military experience they supposedly had, Allye (who was somewhat famous in the notoriously small dance world) got to wander around freely with no disguise, no camouflage of her name, no nothing in place to protect her?
I will give this 1.5 stars. I found it to be a little off putting.
