Review: The plot gets thicker, sadly it also fizzled.....

Assets had me completely enraptured that I was so excited and could hardly wait to read the 2nd book, Liabilities. At just a quarter of the story I began to wonder if this is really the 2nd part of Assets. It is as if it's an entirely different new series, only with the same heroine in a different state of a different country and an altogether different characters.Kalen Brinner, the enigmatic handsome billionaire who has rocked Bailey Glick's world in the first book, was not even here until almost at the end. The entire story and setting has become mundane and boring, akin to soap opera with a mish mash of characters. Some scenes and dialogue didn't even make sense at all, I catch myself mumbling huh? what? Bailey who was smart, strong and forceful in Assets, here she is weak, wishy washy and full of doubts and uncertainties. It's totally a strange Bailey with strange plot as if it was written by two different people. Where I was so enthused and excited in the first book, I am equally disappointed and disenchanted in this, I highly doubt I'll be reading the next book.
