I don't really know where to start with this one. Let me just say that, I absolutely loved the first two books. I liked the third one as well, but I think thats where Lisa started to lose me. The first two books where great, they had intrigue, suspense, and just the right amount of romance and drama to keep me on edge. In the third book is where things start to change. Anna and Bishop part ways. Now, I thought that the fourth book would be them reconciling but boy was I wrong. Im all for a plot twist, and keeping your readers surprised but this book was way too much. Anna claims to be heart broken about her break up with Bishop, and yet straight away ends up going out with Jacob as soon as she gets home?! And then! She ends up having a thing with Rob like a week or two later. She jumps from loving Bishop, to having a strange attraction to Jacob and then having feelings for Rob. It really really put me off Anna's character. Which I hate because I really loved her in the first two/three books. And I also really hated that Bishop wasn't in this book AT ALL. I liked the fact that Lisa gave us an opportunity to see more development of Rob's character but Bishop was the main male character for the first three books and then suddenly he's not even in the fourth book? So utterly disappointing. So without Bishop there, Anna's character is too fickle, jumping from man to man. After some of the scenes I was standing the thinking "I don't understand the point of this chapter" It jumped from one unimportant thing to another and didn't keep me intrigued at all. The really sad thing for me is, I hate it when I start a series that I really love and then fall out of love with it a few books down the track. Which is what happened here. Now I feel like I have to read the books out of annoyance, just to see how it ends. Not because I love the series. A real shame. I hate feeling disappointed after having such high expectations for a series/book.
