This book sounded really good. It even started out great and drew me in but after a few chapters it really started to fall apart.The characters seemed to change personalities constantly. I couldn't keep up. One minute you have Nathan who acts like a bad ass fighter but then he is a professional speaking man with all the courtesy and respect you would expect in a mature business man. Then he is this emotional drinker then he is sensitive and it just goes on from there. Eva seemed like a strong woman at first but then she ended up very immature. It was frustrating and made it really hard to have any connection with the characters because in all honesty I don't think it ever really gives you a strong foundation of who they are.Then you have the storyline. It is a really good storyline just the execution was so choppy you could never get in the moment of what was happening. The dramatic events in this book were glossed over and came and went with a turn of the page. There was no build up to it just bam it all comes out then poof it's over and let's move on to something else. It was a huge disconnect. There was more in depth monologue into random things that did nothing to improve the story then there was with the main plot points. The story could've been amazing and emotional but it really fell short. The dialogue between Nathan and Eva was terrible. How you can even determine a relationship blossomed between them is beyond me because none of it made sense.I think with a good editor and a reader group to discuss how to improve this book then a major rewrite this book could go a long way
