While I loved the first two books in this series I have to say that I didn't like this one AT ALL. It read like it was written by a wholly different author. The writing style was a huge shift. I read MC books for Alpha Males and this book thoroughly discredits breakneck as a bad ass MC. Never on any planet would a group of women bust in on church acting like crazy hormonal bitches. Sniper was the only character that remains intact through this train wreck by putting himself bodily in front of his president and she should have indeed been shot or at the least manhandled. Not to mention the lack of ZZ in this "novella" as he is very close with Tatiana.I'll wait and hope that Sniper leads this series back to a MC but I'm not holding my breath. I think the author is no longer living the life of her characters and is pushing forward on the demand of her fans. I really hope that changes. I will continue to recommend seize me and withstanding me but the recent two installments you can skip. I RECEIVED AN ARC FOR MY HONEST REVIEW Holy Hell did this book leaving me wanting to throw my ipad across the wall. Crystal did it again this book was great from beginning to end. I literally had every emotion while I read this book happy, sad, mad ass hell, you get the point. If you read the other breakneck books you come to realize from the very beginning just how much Tatiana has grow into a mature (but sometimes really stubborn) woman.You feel like you watched her and Shadow fight there attraction for so long that when it finally happens your just like its about damn time, and let me tell you its worth the wait. The fact that there is no Instant love for the characters is what I really like about this book,it just felt that much more real.As always Crystal gives you that gut wrenching heart breaking moment where you ask yourself why would she do this to me. I never saw that moment coming and I honestly am not very happy about it (don't want to say too much because I spoil it). I found myself asking why do I keep reading her books and reminded myself its because she i so damn unpredictable that makes her books that much better.I am please to say it was definitely worth the wait and I can't wait for the following books in the series to come out
I need the next one now! I need to hear the rest of Tea and Shadows sorry asap, loved it!
