The writing of the blurb is better than the writing of the book. The "American FBI" agent uses British English. Tell instead of show. Choppy writing.The writing of the blurb is better than the writing of the book. The "American FBI" agent uses British English. Tell instead of show. Choppy writing. No emotional connection. Skimmed a lot in hopes of adorable child hijinks but... nope. Good basic ideas though....more
I thought I was done with the last one... but then this one came out XD The key to me liking these definitely involved skipping the sex scenes.

I was quite amused! Sex scenes still squick. Also, instead of InstaLove (tm!) there was InsaGettingOverPTSD, I know it's a weird quibble, but Lana wasI was quite amused! Sex scenes still squick.

Decent enough read, and then there were the love scenes. I found her internal monologue during them ridiculous, like incredulous-laughter-roll-your-eyDecent enough read, and then there were the love scenes.

Still game for reading the rest though~~...more
Would have given a 3* if the sex hadn't made me queasy, there was way too much... fluids going on. Add in a nonsensical penis. Alright otherwise.Would have given a 3* if the sex hadn't made me queasy, there was way too much... fluids going on. Add in a nonsensical penis. Alright otherwise....more
There were good parts! But now with Insta-Devotion (tm) 146% more irritating than Insta-Love (tm) because it makes EVEN LESS SENSE.63% gave up for now
There were good parts! But now with Insta-Devotion (tm) 146% more irritating than Insta-Love (tm) because it makes EVEN LESS SENSE.
For GOOD devotion/loyalty building check outDaughter of the Bloodor even the Chinese web novel I'm reading The Demonic King Chases His Wife: The Rebellious Good-for-Nothing Miss
Probably will come back to this some time......more
waffling between 2 and 3 stars, but decided on 2 because... I just didn't like it. There were some amoops my review didn't post.

"He wants you to change him even if he resists" <<<< like at that (>.<) I wanted to slap Synar for being stupid... at least 40% of the time. Still, the good parts are enough to drive me nucking futs when the idiot parts come. And... I can't stop with this book, because I gots to know what happens!!...more

"Doc... this weeping sh!t has got to stop." HE SAID IT!!!! Sooooo, great ideas, uneven, jittery characterization. Plot flow like a ball of clay rolled"Doc... this weeping sh!t has got to stop."

I did like one part! The rest of the time I was repeatedly hitting myself in the head due to frustration... but I was trapped! TRAPPED! I wanted to see how it turned out!...more
I just couldn't connect with the characters emotionally. Stuff happened that DID NOT MAKE SENSE. It was all kind of 2-dimensional.

I was going to do this detailed instruction manual of what incredibly complicated order to read the books in, but life is too short! Basically, I read books 2-5 at the same time, skipping between them at points of intersection of the books! Because! Spoilers! Ye flippin' gods the spoilers between books. And it irritated me. I had to keep going to the next book (books 6 to... 9?) because the previous book was spoiling. I skipped the sex scenes. I started reading the series because my Amazon kept suggesting I should read the Dragonling's Christmas and such. I wanted the adorableness!!! And they were adorable... But thank gods I'm out of that interminable morass of nonsense!! Ah, plenty of continuity errors, mostly timeline....more
