Another Sweetverse hit! KMoon writes not only writes delectable characters but such engaging stories too. And the voice actors she scores for each book knock it out of the park! Julio Maxwell reading for Adam and Garrett was superb.

I love how much KMoon refers back to characters and plots from previous books and also seeds plot for the next installment in each book. Seeing Eve soften a bit to let the test of the pack in as she healed was great. She was still a total BAMF and that this shift didn't dull her edge at all, but it just gave her even more dimension as a character. And I can't wait to meet Faith and have her reunite with Adam!

Fantastic read! I do wish we had gotten to know a bit more about what made Eve into the super awesome killer hitwoman she is today, but even without that background I was fully engaged the whole way through.  I was a touch disappointed that more of the book didn't focus on Adam, him being the omega and all. I especially wish that we had gotten more of Jamie and Rory's viewpoints towards Adam, I would have loved to see how they valued him as the centring omega even without them having sexual/romantic feelings towards him.  I would have even loved for them to maybe just state that they were straight, or given some other explanation for not wanting to be with Adam.

Eve grew up rough and while it is never talked about in detail, she definitely experienced physical and sexual abuse, probably even gang rape, while growing up in some unknown care facitlity.
