Betrayals by Kelley Armstrong
4.0
More engrossing than Deceptions since I finished reading Betrayals in one sitting, stopping only for bathroom breaks and dinner. Betrayals felt like it had smidge of what made the earlier two books great. One thing for sure, Betrayals > Deceptions. As per usual, the supernatural elements ROCKED and kept me turning the pages.
I was not expecting the ending and I wonder why Ricky came to that decision (in spite of the justification he gave, I don't buy it). His POV(s) were much welcomed and from there we, the readers can see just how close Olivia and Gabriel's friendship-something really is.
Can I tell you how much I have come to adore reading the chapters from Gabriel's point of view? He is made to be a character with a bad childhood, common in PNR but his' is a character that has been fleshed out. His flaws feel real, I can empathize with him...to see him grow has been a delight. In hindsight, we came back to Cainsville and for that, I am grateful.

Poor Ricky, at least they've sexxed it up countless of times in the past three books. Horndogs, the both of them! This is me mildly annoyed by how many times they do it in the books. Luckily hehehe, most are fade-to-black or not THAT graphic to me.Can I tell you how much I have come to adore reading the chapters from Gabriel's point of view?
