listened to audiobook and it's very blah at this point with the same voices.

as usual an interesting pairing is made boring the moment they're the main characters of the book. josie is incredibly selfish and no one seems to check her on it which is mindbogglingly STUPID.
endangering people's lives to hunt another sakotsk to get her a new khui...? girl im gonna attack you myself.


theres an interesting plot but instead of exploring it we get chapters and chapters of the same played out miscommunication romance plot.

I've truly been waiting to start Haeden and Josie's story since they first grumped towards each other like three books ago. I wasn't disappointed, they might be my favorite of the couples to date. This is practically a slowburn for Dixon, as Josie (for understandable reasons that include the fact Haeden has been a dick to her and because she's been sexually abused in her past--don't let the other reviews here mislead you) holds off on the whole mating thing. But it's fun to see how Dixon essentially makes the same plot exciting each time!

I'm gonna be honest. I can't remember if I finished this book last night or mid day today or... actually that might sound right? I don't even know. I'm genuinely reading these books too quickly to keep up lol but I did like Josie and how she and her mate have both lived hard lives and managed to overcome their miscommunication long enough to realize that they were a good match. Also, wow, two more females? I wonder if they are gonna figure out a way to start tracking down these aliens and stop this trafficking bullshit.

I love every single time these soft alien boys make an extremely forward  statement to their mates 🤭😅 Never gets old!

This one really upped the ante with the trek these two went on - whew!
