Relentless

2 years ago I stopped reading and I struggled to get back into this beloved hobby of mine. Recently, I conjured a list of books I wanted to read and this happened to be the first one I physically picked up - and i'm really really happy I did!

There was just enough description on characters and their roles in the story, hardly a “filler” chapter and yet you got all the explanations you needed in a truly simple-to-understand (but not rushed) kind of way. Was a great storyline - paced to perfection. I was feeling many emotions throughout the story:
Especially with Nikolas, my-oh-my... Nikolas.

What a man. wipes sweat

In the intense moments I had to keep myself from causing a scene when the suspense was too real.
And let me tell you... it gets real.

BUT, Story was an easy 5star for me -until this line [semi-spoiler!]:

“In my country, a female is beaten for interfering in the business of men.”

My only comfort is that they died and will not be featured in the plot of the 2nd book.
