Misunderstood, Death Dwellers' MC; Book 2, Kathryn KellyReview from Jeannie Zelos book reviews**WARNING SPOILERS**I love good contemporary romance, and have read some cracking biker books, so asked for this. Still, having read it I wondered if I was going to be alone in really not enjoying it....and it seems this is a Marmite series, one you either love or hate. Maybe hate is too strong, but certainly dislike.So what went wrong for me? Well, Kendall – an attorney so supposedly an intelligent woman, and yet ends up in the situation she's in? No one from her work notices her biker boyfriend whacking her about? Taking her away when she's due in court? The woman herself is one of those TSTL heroines, and I can't be doing with them. **WARNING SPOILERS**She's just seen her mum kill herself, her little sister is still in the capture of the MC her boyfriend heads up, and she knows sis is facing rape and death, and yet what does she do? Go for help? No....takes on the job and flakes out again, and again, and again. When she does get caught and questioned by Johnny ( her “saviour” in her mind) does she tell him all and ask him for help? After all she thinks he's a hero, and she's in love with him? No..Does she find a way to escape and search for sister? No, even though she's unrestrained and in the house alone, it seems it's far more important to wait for him to return and have more hot sex....Jonny was still so fixated on Meg I didn't see where the connection between them could go, and how they'd ever have any kind of relationship.I can take the violence, murders, sexual elements, the bad language, ( though even for a biker book that was extreme) and the fact that they all spoke in weird, cut off sentences...but the whole thing, murders, kidnapping, the back and forth between Spoon's club and the DDs was just simply far too OTT. It was a series of disjointed incidences that didn't add up, didn't make sense and the sex seemed to be thrown in simply to make the book “erotic”. Well for me I need more. Sex that fits the story, plots that make sense, and are realistic ( seriously all those murders, bombings, beatings, fires where the police and fire-squad are attending, and it all gets passed over by a few backhanders? Unreal IMO.So that's it – a book some will love and some like me will simply feel Meh, unreal, didn't like it.Stars: Sorry, just two.ARC received via Netgalley
