I was looking forward to seeing how she ruled everyone here. In the last two books, she's a gloriously bitchy take-no-prisoners queen who knows what she wants and gets it. I literally finished this 'book' in an hour. No time or attention was dedicated to making sure that their relationship progressed at a believable pace. Bianca and Stone exchange I-love-yous after barely knowing each other.
It felt like I was reading a book in fast-forward, because everything happens at the speed of light. They fall into a quick relationship, there's some drama with her brother who dislike Stone, the brothers get over it. There she meets Stone, an ex-victim of hers, who agrees to show her around. When she goes back to school for the first time, she's beaten up by all the girls she used to terrorise, so she begs her dad to move schools into the local public school. Here, she's just woken up, but she has amnesia and remembers nothing about her life after the age of eight.
At the end of the last book, we learnt that Bianca had been in a car accident. If Jade thinks Stone being the hero is a massive plot twist, I shudder to think what she would do if she had to write a real mystery novel. please, don't ever write a detective book. I literally guessed it would be Stone from book one, so to Ashley Jade and the reviewers promising me I'd never guess who it was. I don't understand AT ALL why there was so much mystery over it. Younger brother of Tommy, the guy who was the villain of the first book. As usual, every other review on here is a gushing fountain, so I had very high expectations going into this one, of which not a single one was met.Īlso, because all the other reviews are being unnecessarily secretive about the hero, I'm going to get it out of the way right now: It's Stone. This book is weak, overdramatic, rushed, and just in general a massive letdown. I even considered switching my Kindle address to Australia so I could get it early - the last time I did that was for the Curse of the Gods series. I was on tenterhooks all of yesterday for it. I constantly checked to see when the release date was. I waited almost eight months for this book. I am SO DISAPPOINTED right now, I could cry. I don't really believe in amending original reviews, because I think they capture my feelings - however wrong they might later turn out to be - at the exact moment I was feeling them, and there's some value to be found in that.
Everything else below still holds true, though, so I'm not going to be able to honestly rate this more than 3 stars.īelow is the original, unadulterated review. I can't blame this book for having a shoddy romance if it was deliberately designed to be shoddy.
I decided that I would rate this book 3 stars if Stone turned out to be a red herring of a hero.
