Queen Takes Rose by Katee Robert
3.0
While I did enjoy finally getting Aurora's story (she was my favorite character and prominently featured in all the other books in this series), I didn't feel that the plot lived up to what it could have been.
The tension between Malone and Aurora was great, as were their spicy scenes, but my main issue with this series is the lack of storytelling. There were details hinted at in this book to the world outside Carver City, but I felt like it was more as an opening to introduce the Sabine Valley series rather than further the plot of the book. I also couldn't take Aurora's threat to Malone's life seriously, so that bit of tension to the plot was lost on me.
I didn't dislike the book by any means, but I was left wanting more.
