I received this book in exchange for an honest review (LoP)We’re told in the blurb that Mila is a descendant of a powerful werewolf bloodline so there are no surprises when her eyes change in the story. And since she’s so powerful we already know she’ll come out as the winner at the end. So what’s left is the story in between. But sadly there was nothing of substance there.There was an attempt of romance but I felt like the attraction was forced. It just didn’t feel natural to me. The dialogue between Mila and Landon was a little off to me. I couldn’t imagine two people conversing this way when they meet under the circumstances that they’ve met. For two people that are supposedly quite reserved and private they sure told their stories to each other quickly. For some reason I was bothered how they talked to each other. It was like the reader needed to get all the details from the backstory as soon as possible and this was the way to do it. Mila was portrayed as a tough cookie but Landon spoke very condescending to her like she couldn’t survive without him.This story dragged and nothing really happened for the first 3/4 of the book. There was so much preparation for this fight that it was annoying. Why do we need to know what they’re building every second of the day? And when it finally happened it was all so convenient. We get to read about all this history and who the villain is supposed to be but when it all comes down to it we’re up against a stranger that had nothing to do with Mila’s history.I’m sad to say this was not a book for me.
