I really enjoyed this book! Flew through it in two days and I was so pleased with how some storylines played out! I still do not care for malina and wish her chapters didn't exist but I enjoy all the other POVs. Worth a read and some good spice in this one, no idea where the series is going next but I know I'm along for the ride!
