Wicked Bite

***3 Stars*** It pains me to say this, it really does, because I’ve enjoyed every other book in this series and was all kinds of excited to get my hands on more of Bear, but this one just didn’t do it for me. I wanted it to, badly, and there were a few bright spots throughout which stopped me from DNF’ing the book outright, but when you start skimming (skipping) pages then you know it’s not a good sign. While I didn’t fall in love with either Bear or Nessa, I did like them separately, but together they just didn’t really do it for me. The chemistry wasn’t there for me. Yes, the smexy was smexy but the constant head butting and need to physically prove dominance got old especially when both are supposed to be quite intelligent and could have found another way to prove a point. But, it is what it is. As for the Apollo storyline. The whole Bear distributing Apollo storyline was dragged out too long for me and then resolved too quickly. I know I sound like that person who finally gets what they wanted but it isn’t enough, but I just couldn’t get why they thought Bear was the ring leader after all he did for Simone. As for who was behind it all, I didn’t pick up on it right away, but I did figure it out before it was revealed, so yay me! I know I’ve been nitpicking, so here is what worked for me: the “interference” of demon, vampire and witch nations. Dage, Simone, Nick, Logan, Garrett and even Boondock made this read fun for me. Especially Logan and Garrett who I am crossing my toes will get their own spinoff because they absolutely deserve one. If it weren’t for these secondary characters I’d have probably stopped reading the book entirely. I wanted to love this book. I really, really did because it was the last of the series, but it didn’t work out that way. I still enjoyed the series and am crossing my toes that there will be more to come from this world sooner rather than later. ~ Copy provided by the publisher via NetGalley & voluntarily reviewed ~

Really amazing story! This was my first book from this author and I have to say she really knows how to keep you interested. Definitely will read more of her books!

I have loved this series, and this book definitely didn't disappoint.
