Review: I Cringed, I laughed inappropriately and I skimmed a whole lot!
Rating: 2 out of 5

Characters:  This is just silly.  Honestly, like laughable.  The heroine, Elle is an insecure, overweight homebody whose best friend Anya is so beautiful she would make gay men reconsider.  Elle is the girl that wakes Aiden from his 100 year sex hiatus, and her friend Anya is the first to make his cousin Nicholas actually desire to kiss a girl during sex.  Well, that is until she doesn't come back from the bathroom fast enough and he goes at it with another girl against the wall. Classy.Writing Style: Frustrating sex scenes and HUGE leaps in logic that I guess, pass the plot along but make you laugh at the silliness of it. Ex: Gregory says, "I'm sorry. I know you're close (to your cousin Nicholas who has supposedly turned rogue), so I'll take responsibility for taking him out." Aiden replies, "I'll do it.  He's my cousin and I owe him.  He was the one who took care of Luciana (my dead mate) when I couldn't".  Does that even make sense?  He was a great friend to me by protecting my wife, so I will be the one to take him out, especially since we have decided he's guilty without even asking him if he is.  There is an even better, more hilarious jump in logic at the end, by prince Julian who decides that since the rogue is wearing blue contacts he must be his missing uncle whose son had blue eyes. LOL!!!Plot: A rogue vampire is killing girls and heading up other rogues and, for a while, they believe it to be Nicholas. Elle was in danger and needed Aiden's protection but then there was the "I have to leave you for your own safety" betrayal and Elle STILL not being safe. Honestly, it needed better transitions, less leaps in logic, better love scenes and better character development. It's like a first draft and in need of some critique and polish.Romance: So awful (shakes head)  where do I even start?  Nicholas is continually almost getting Elle off with his fingers and is continually interrupted.  In fact there were so many drastic transitions it would make your head spin. "Elle Jumped at his sudden movement before opening her arms for him.  With his lips and teeth teasing hers, Elle fell back dragging him with her. But Aiden didn't stay (shocker!). Thundering boots and men cursing outside the door had Aiden up and fleeing the room before Elle could process what was happening". And end of chapter!  I'm surprised these two ever got the deed done.  The sex was hard and fast and multiple orgasms but it was animalistic not sweet.  *** CRINGE WORTHY WORDS, such as liquids leaked from me, folds instantly leaked fluid around him, plus distracting conversations during sex.Sex and Violence Rating: Rx - Oral Sex, Physically Aggressive Descriptive Sex, F-bomb a lot, A little Gory2 Star  - Returned for refund - Can't recommend
