Broken Legacy by Jaymin Eve, Tate James

Sebastian Roman Beckett!! That’s the reason I’m giving this 4 stars! He is the ultimate alpha male book boyfriend. I couldn’t get enough of him. Dark. Powerful. Smart. Gorgeous. And on top of it all he SO good to Riley and says all the right things! What else do you need!?
Riley on the other hand got on my nerves. I have liked her pretty well through this series but her feminist crap bugged me in this book. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for women empowerment, but when he says “You are mine” why couldn’t she just let it be?? “I own you just like you own me.” He’s not putting her down or being all women shaming, so why did she have to push him away and fight it so bad? “I will submit to no man.” Gah... it was clear he was just feeling insecure with her holding on to Dante so much. Why couldn’t she just give him some reassurance? He was sweet! If that makes me crazy, sorry not sorry!
The plot was a bit extreme but I enjoy books that sweep me away and aren’t real life so I was all over the drama. I didn’t like Dylan’s ending. Why did he have to have a sad ending - being angry and distant at the end. But the fact that I want to read and re-read several spots over and over, that puts me firmly in 4 stars even with a handful of things I didn’t like.
