I didn’t enjoy this as much as the first one, but I still did enjoy this! 
The plot completely changes from the first book and this turns more action packed. This was also a lot darker than the first. Trigger warnings for sex trafficking, sexual assault, and animal cruelty(there’s more, but I think those are the main and have the most detail). I also didn’t enjoy this much because the characters are not interacting as much(if you know you know. I’m trying not to spoil). Also I feel like a lot of the characters did like a personality transplant. Also this has way less smut scenes which makes sense. Also the characters made such stupid decisions. This sounds so negative, but I’m giving it a four because I was so entertained and I like the characters.

aytac's review against another edition

the first book was a million times better than this. It just dragged on and never got to the point. Ryth is the dumbest FMC I've read in a while and it was just infuriating. Human trafficking being the main subject in this book also just switched me off and how the author portrayed it like the girls actually enjoyed it when all this is just glorified rape. One of the worst books I've read in a while.

What the hell is going on???

I gave book #1 5/5⭐️ and I was looking forward to reading "Hers". But what in the gods name happend?? It went from a taboo stepbrother-smut to human trafficking in 0,2 seconds and I'm not here for it.

The writing in book 1 was fine, because it was easy, but the author has major problems in this book. They are also repeating them self quit often. And the action scenes was 20 pages too long.
It almost makes me believe this book was written by another author.... could it be ghost-writing? *Tinfoil hat on⛑️*


*spoilers ahead*

The MCs are also the dumbest people I have ever read about. Their actions makes NO sense. Ryth is angry at Caleb for playing a role so he could save her from fucking HUMAN TRAFFICKING. Oh my lord, use a brain cell, Ryth.

Did I enjoy this book? No. Will I read the next book? Probably.

2/5⭐️
1/5📝
2/5🌶 (the MCs only have a few chapters together)
