This was such a disappointment. I was highly anticipating this book, and I remember really enjoying the first book. However, as soon as I started reading it immediately picked up where the first book left off without any recap of what happened, and I honestly couldn't remember. I reread a little bit of the first book, but I still felt lost while reading this book. I think the author should have included more of a recap in her writing. I also thought this book was so all over the place, and I never really understood what was going on. There were some horrendous actions that were supposedly perpetrated by the bad guy the fallacious, but he just leaves her alone and she is easily rescued. Then this book introduced three new mates into the story (mark plus a new two person-one body creature that Alexis names Osz and Vizruk). These three new mates quickly become my favorites amongst her men, because the original three are incredibly frustrating, controlling, condescending, and disrespectful in regards to Alexis' needs in this book. I don't think introducing new characters that are wonderful, and then destroying the connection I felt to the original characters is a good way to maintain reader enjoyment. There were a lot more steamy scenes in this book, but I often found them poorly written and not appropriate in regards to where the plot was currently at. I also felt confused by some of the pictures because they didn't always feel like they were in the right position to depict the scene. Honestly, I was so so disappointed in this book. I also hated the cliffhanger ending. I felt like I waited so long for this book to be released, and then it was less than 200 pages and chaotic. It needed more revision and probably more length and less inappropriately-timed steamy scenes. I hope the next book will be better, but I honestly don't know how I feel about continuing. This was a big flop for me.
