dark emotional tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

It's really annoying how the author keeps mentioning how innocent the character is. It's gotten even worse than book 1. Like, dude, she's inexperienced but not incapable of using the Internet. 
The love interests are kind of annoying this time. They keep making decisions for her and go all caveman, which is embarrassing. 
The writing hasn't really improved (not that I expected it, since book 1 and 2 were published in the same year). It still reminds me of wattpad. The writing is oddly stiff and lots of tell instead of show.

Another awesome read that made me feel everything Shiloh was feeling. Those nightmares… i couldn’t imagine living through that every night on repeat. She is amazingly strong and Colt, Creed and Keelan are amazing! Knox is still being a Jackass. And LOGAN!!! Don’t even get me started. What he has done to Shiloh was inexcusable. Can’t believe that he would act the way he did knowing what Shiloh went through. Can’t wait to read the third book.

Read on Kindle.
