Why? Just why?

Seriously, who thought a gang rape, PTS and anxiety disorders would be a great premise for a Romance novel?

Spoilers:
How did that meeting go with the publisher?
Author:
“Picture it a girl gets gang raped and left to die in a dumpster, only to survive and find out she’s pregnant by one of the 6 guys.” ! ... “ok so years later she falls in love with her childhood sweetheart but can’t be intimate with him without having flashbacks about the gang rape. Also she suffers from anxiety about being away from her son, but when she finally starts to relax, she’ll leave the boy with her fiancé and we can write a whole chapter about him not having a booster seat for the child to sit in and yet put him in the front seat of a sports car”
Publisher:
Wow what a great idea! Think about all those mothers out there wanting to have a little escape from life via a romance novel... who wouldn’t want to imagine themselves as this character!

Seriously, whoever gave the green light for this novel needs to transfer to a different department, your idea of what women want in their fantasy romance is light years away from this!

Kids rule

I have listened to the first 3 books in this series and out of all the characters Oscar is the Bomb he is the best of all I wish he was in the books more

Not my favorite

I like this series and, in the past two books, I enjoyed the different struggles and drama between the two mains and the different packs but this one just felt like filler. There was no real antagonist, though some possible antagonists were introduced, and it just didn't grab me the way the others did. I didn't find the relationship very compelling either. I think the only part I liked about this book was Oscar and I don't even like kids. There were a few redeeming moments but overall, I feel like it could have been so much better if more emphasis was placed on plot over Maddie's past and the issues caused by it.

This series is about a BUNCH of runway females

I can not take women who don’t have back bone. Now this is a tough topic but this book is full with emotion inconsistency. I can’t go back and buy my family through this but I fine with putting a child through the same thing.

Best book in the series

I loved Maddie’s story.
I love how strong her character is.
I could not stop crying.

Amazing!

Really good story. Here’s another idea.

The story was really good, I really liked it.

Would love to see a story of Oscar’s shifting animal and see who his mate is. And, if his biological father finds out about him.
