a few reasons I gave this one star:

1. There was no good reason for this book to exist. Book 1 and 2 could have been combined w/ changing pov’s from lorelei to leander if the writer really wanted to give us leander’s pov. Separating them into two books is just making reader read the same story twice. There were still elements of the actual story I didn’t like but at least combining the two books would have spared me a few hundred pages.

2. How tf did leander not get caught? Everyone around him conveniently gets killed off right in time for his murder trail? That didn’t set off major alarm bells for anyone? Specifically lorelei?

3. The romance between lorelei and leander was blanddd. I liked them a bit in book 1 but here I just could not understand why they fell for each other. Any chemistry they had in book 1 was no where to be seen from leander’s pov, so as a character with a ton of trust issues I just did not buy how enamored he was with lorelei towards the end.

4. Lastly, Greta’s character was so dumb. I don’t even have the words for it. Her character was just bizarre.

Anyways, Idk if I will be reading book 3 because I still like Leander’s character and am hopeful I’ll enjoy his and bennett’s story since they displayed more chemistry in the two scenes we got of them together then lorelei and leander had over the span of two books but idk if this series is for me
