Ok... First I have to say that I was really really looking forward to East's book. But really. And I really wanted it to be with Zack, because of the hints we had of them in previous books. And maybe because of those overly high expectations is that sometimes when you read the book itself... well, the result isn't what you expected. I clarify, as I have done several times in other reviews, that I am not a fan of poly or threesomes or whatever, but I have read several lately, especially because they are from some of my favorite authors, and because they were perhaps well balanced and well written, I ended enjoying them quite a bit! But... Not so much here.

I don't know, I think that in this case, it's not a "me problem" with poly or threesomes, but, I repeat, the lack of balance between the 3 MCs involved in this story. I felt like there was a first part where it was East/Zack, a second where it was King/Zack, and a tiny part where it was King/Zack and (finally!) East. And when we got to that part... Boom! The book was over!
Despite all this, I STILL ENCOURAGE YOU TO READ IT, because a story that didn't work for me doesn't mean it won't work for someone else. This is just my opinion.
I was given an advanced copy and voluntarily wrote a review.
