I found Jessica Hall via her His Lost Lycan Luna book and whilst I’m waiting for new chapters I decided to read Hybrid Aria. Each book focuses on a different character from each generation of Aria’s family - making them fast paced whilst not forgetting characters we’ve grown to love.
I enjoyed this book - plenty of steamy scenes and an interesting plot line! However, you can see that this is one of her earlier works - there are grammatical errors that should have been caught by an editor before print. I’m also not a fan of the unexpected pregnancy trope - which seems to be a theme of this series. Despite its length, I feel the book needed longer to explore Aria’s conflict around being a mum and how she could accomplish her life goals. Instead, she quickly became wedded, bedded and a unimportant mum - focusing on Aria for two books and her journey would have been incredible!
At the end it shifts quickly to follow a different person, leaving me feeling unfulfilled with the lack of development we were privy to with Aria - it time jumps to her being happy and a great mum with a new focus on a different character (which I’m not mad at as the next book is good!).
