I do not like this cover AT ALL. The dude on the cover is not even remotely close to how I pictured Wade. That said, that is a personal opinion. The cover itself is an excellent representation of the story. It has fairly good composition and interesting typography.

I enjoyed this one but I didn't love it as much as I did the first book of this series.

First the positives...it was well written. Had some good twists and turns. In fact, one of the twists came as a complete surprise to me. So kudos to the author for that! It had some interesting secondary characters. I cannot wait until Ian's book. The main characters were fairly likable as individuals. The sex scenes were hot.

On to what didn't work for me. One, I struggled to feel a connection between Wade and Brina for the first half of the book. They were boring together (IMO) Things improved when the twist was revealed but they never came close to having the same chemistry as the couple from book one.



There was also some weird OW scene in this one where a woman Wade hooked up with occasion rubs herself on him and grabs his dick getting him hard. He makes plans to meet her later to have sex. This is AFTER he slept with the heroine. Now my issue was that we NEVER see this woman again. No indication is given whether he meet up with her or not. (This is what happens when my mind wanders. I went back and re-read the scene, and he does cancel his “sex” appointment with the OW. So that mystery is solved. I still struggle to see the point of ever having that scene in the book? It didn't add a damn thing to the plot, and it was all I could think about for the whole damn book!

Lastly, this one dragged for me at times. I felt my mind drifting to other things, and I just couldn't stay invested in the story. All in all this one turned out being a mixed bag for me. I enjoyed it enough that I will go on to read the others in the series but book one is the better of the two IMO.
