Review: It's ok

The story was slow to start and then when the threat was revealed it was kind of so-so in my opinion. Good but not someone’s going to die good.  The heroin, Kate, gives in fairly quickly which I’m pretty much ok with. I’d rather have someone give in quickly rather than spend the whole book listening to them whine about things in their head.I definitely wanted to throw rocks at the BFF and from what comments I’ve read about the other books she doesn’t get any better.  She’s not bad, as in written badly; she’s just a bad person. Someone you want to leave a flaming-bag-of-poo on their doorstep kind of bad.Overall, it’s just hard to review this one. It has angst but not quite enough, not in the right kind of way, not like I needed it to be. I don’t really know how to describe it, it’s just different. Which is good too. The story is good and definitely had me shaking my head and mouth hanging open at certain parts.Kate over all is a good character. Now Drake… he’s different. There were times I loved  him, then I hated him, then I LOVED him all over again. He’s like a roller coaster for emotion. Definitely mysterious with lots of different layers, which is what we like in our alpha-males right? At least I do.Plus the way Drake is so obviously losing himself into the situation and making mistakes (I can’t go further, but trust me it’s interesting when he does certain little things that you just know aren’t the “normal”) You’ll know what I mean when you read it, it’s those little things that keep the reading interesting because you get to watch the story really grow.Also as an FYI there are some intense and graphic scenes in this one, things I’m not normally up for reading about, but they were short so I powered on. I like when a book makes me test my limits, but not so much that I’m cringing while reading it.I was digging it and the book was riding at a solid four, but then towards the end there were certain events that were slightly hard to believe. It left me feeling like everything tied up way too nicely and quickly. I wasn’t ready to accept that reality yet.Once I was done reading and had the chance to look back at it I just didn’t feel like I really connected with the characters enough to really move on to the next book. This one was good, I’m glad I read it, but it’s probably the last one in this series I check out. Although, I’ll more than likely be looking up the authors other work in the future when I’m in need of material.
