MY REVIEW
3 out of 5 stars
Boy, was this book different than the first. While I’d probably classify the first as romance/erotica, the second was more like action/crazy drug cartel shoot-outs. It held my attention much more than I was expecting, and by the end I was truly excited to find out how it all ended. I also enjoyed the POV shift to Leo and Travis, because I found them to be much more likeable and reliable narrators than Lana and Val. My main complaint for this story, besides some slightly far-fetched occurrences, was that the motives of the characters were not always consistent or clear, which left holes in their characterization.
