While I still enjoyed this book, it was my least favorite in the series thus far. I did not find the story or plot as compelling as the previous books. I had expected more tension and fireworks in the beginning of the book between Sloane and Xavier. They seemed to sort of fall into being a couple pretty quickly without significant tension to fight. I do feel that their emotional hang ups seemed realistic for the characters. I still recommend that fans of Ana’s read this book despite it not being as bold as others by her.
