Review

I love this series. I can’t say it enough. This book took me out of my book funk. And I’d started many books by beloved authors, but I couldn’t get into a one and I started and stopped several times.

This book I’m proud to say held my attention from the start. I listened in two days.

I love Mercy and I loved getting Adam’s POV. The story was interesting creating questions and answering others to keep my focus solely on this book.

My only problem was with the middle when the author goes out of sequence. She makes not of it several times. At the beginning and when it happens so the reader is well aware. However, for me, I think that going out of sequence didn’t enhance the story. It didn’t provide that aha moment. In fact, I think it made things more predictable than less. It would have been better if she would have just gone linear.

That’s my only complaint and why I can’t give it perfect marks. Otherwise, I just wish there had been more. Now, what is a girl to read?

One thing to note --> This book brought me out of my blogger funk because it was that good.

Audio Review

Lorelei King narrates. I often forget I first heard her read this series. Luckily, this time I heard only Mercy’s voice and not Charlie Davidson. It’s interesting how similar but not these two series are. My only complaint is addition of a new narrator who is fantastic by the way. However, when he spoke as Adam, I didn’t buy it. He didn’t sound as alpha as Lorelei made him. Which made it hard to accept. But his other characters and accents were flawless.

My Book Boyfriend is ADAM.
