A review by zayyssa
The Darkest Temptation by Danielle Lori

dark medium-paced

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

2.0

This killed the series. Even in my Russian-mafia standard this was off. There was tension, yes, but there was no chemistry.
