Review: Should have been a novella
Rating: 3 out of 5

I really like this series, so I have high expectations for each new book.  Adam was not a bad book per se.  The problem with Adam is that the story does not focus on Adam...at all.  I read somewhere that the author originally intended for this to be a novella and I think she should have stuck to that option.  Instead, we get the amount of face time for the hero/heroine that we would get in a novella, sandwiched in between quite a bit of bridge story between Sid and Slade's book which should be the next one out.  Don't get me wrong, the bridge story is very interesting and we get to see all the characters from the previous books and meet a few new ones that look very promising.  However, if the book is supposed to be about Adam, I want the book to focus on Adam.  Adam may not be one of my favorite characters, but if he was going to get his own story it should have been his own story.  There were too many unresolved issues between Adam and his girl that honestly needed to be touched upon but never were.  If the story would have been a novella, I could have understood that for the sake of page space, but not a full length story.  So, while there are a lot of interesting things going on in this story, I just cannot give it more than a 3-star rating.  It was ok.  It could have been much better.  At least the stage is set for Slade's book.  Jax addition to that mix should be very interesting to watch.
