I wasn't sure about reading this book because I really disliked Javier but I am so glad I read it. I even loved this book much more than the first book in The Artists Trilogy, it just seemed deeper and more emotional to me.
If I wasn't sure about Karina Halle before, I absolutely love her as an author now. Not only is she very good at getting across emotion, which we saw through Ellie's mind, she is also good at action scenes and you feel like you're in the scene with the characters as the scene is unfolding.
Also, why is this book recommended to be read after the first book in The Artists Trilogy? I would have probably enjoyed it more if I had read it before the first book. I mean, there is some history mentioned about Ellie and Javier in the first one but we don't really know in more detail what happened between them. This would have just given us some more background information, and we would have had an easier time understanding why Ellie was so reluctant to love again after him and planned on conning Camden in the beginning. I am never listening to those “recommendations” again.
In addition, I loved how messed up their relationship was. It was so intense, heartfelt and didn't feel forced whatsoever. I mean, I still don't like Javier but at least I understand more of why he did what he did. And I don't think that Ellie's relationship with Camden was as intense but there are still two more books in the series so I guess we'll see what happens. At this point I am leaning slightly towards Javier as who I like more for Ellie.
I actually read this book like 5 days ago but since I'm a working woman now, I wasn't able to write a review until now. Safe to say, this book blew the previous one out of the water and I think anyone who likes intense relationships with plenty of smut will enjoy this book immensely and should give it a chance. I am definitely reading the rest of the books in the series soon because now I'm curious to know what happens to Ellie and if she ever finds her one true love.
Oh yeah, and the writing- flawless. Easy to read and hard to put down, even though it was on the shorter side in terms of length. Still, it was full of feeling and I got deeply invested in the story. In one word- it was a terrific book!
