Did not finish book. Stopped at 15%.

I know it's dark, but the writing wasn't good enough to keep it from being too dark.

Twisted Games by Ana Huang
Did not finish book. Stopped at 66%.

It's just so very predictable. Which is fine, but the characters are giving me stress. For people that fight their attraction for so very long, they certainly jump into very questionable choices once they decide to go for it. The constant stress of them getting caught needs to at least be outweighed by steamy smut, but it's not. It's the same thing every time and actually similar to what the previous book people did. (Me thinks the author likes a rough hand around the throat in the heat of the moment.)

I'm just bored and have been able to tell how this was going to eventually play out from the start. Not worth my time anymore.
