At first, I thought things were a bit Corny and unbelievable but I decided to stick with it and I am glad I did. This was a cute little story.

Struggle to rate

I am going to be honest. I really struggled to rate this book. I have gone back and forth on how I really feel about it.

Ultimately, I struggled to put it down so that usually gets extra stars for me. However, there were some parts I had a really hard time getting through.

I feel like there are enough other reviews out there that can point to some of the concerns of the book so I won’t rehash those out again.

Beware.

I read this book in an effort to read some of the great "classics" I never took the time to read. To be honest, this book is just... overrated.

The story just kind of seemed dumb to me. You have a man who has overcome so much, and built his self up in a way that is unfathomable to most people. Then with all this wealth he decides to try to win the heart of a woman he lost 5 years ago. This is something I thought would really hold my attention. I love a good love story. However, the woman was married, and she made it clear she wasn't going to leave her husband, I think he should have just let her go at that point.

I don't know, it just didn't really hold my attention. I found myself the last few chapters just waiting for it to be done. I just found it to be boring. Not a lot happens most of the beginning of the book, then there was a bunch of death, and then not a whole lot happens. I won't be reading it again.

I listened to this book on audible because it was free. It was not my favorite. The hero, Kill was a hypocritical rapist. It seemed to be played off because her body reacts to becoming aroused, that is common. Rape is rape. I think both of the characters could benefit from therapy. The female lead doesn't even seem to realize she is repeatedly being rapes. I am confused as to why there are so many good reviews for this book. I did find the narrators to be good. The story really needs some work. It really isn't ok the message it is trying to convey to readers.

I enjoyed the storyline, however the nararators weren’t my favorite. They were ok but the voices didn’t really seem to go with the characters. It won’t stop me from listening to the rest of the series though.

I love the first part of the book. I was captivated. However the second half wasn’t as great. I find the main character to be annoying. I am not sure if I will listen to the second one or not. Of course it did end on a cliff hanger.

First all I would like to say I loved listening to Sebastian York. He is probably my favorite narrators of all time. He makes it so much easier to listen to any story. The actually story was good. Predicable but good. I listened to it in one sitting while I was working on crafts. With being less than 3 hours I was expecting at times for the story to go deeper but then it didn't... it just simply moved on. I guess if you are looking for something quick to listen to this would be great for you.
