No rating.DNF @ 23%


This bored me,quite frankly.Not even Halo and his long hair was enough to carry on here.

No one loves an arrogant asshole more than me but I really disliked Viper.And there was something about the way he pursued Halo that left me feeling uncomfortable.


Halo: I'm straight,I like girls...


Viper: I honestly don't care.I want you and I'm hot-in fact everyone wants me (because I'm hot) -did I mention I'm hot-because I am-extremely hot.


Viper: Have you ever been interested in a man?


Halo: No,can't say I have.


Viper: ( probably pouting and trying to look seductive ....hot? ) But I'm hot...


(Yawn)

Reminded me a bit of Logan's pursuit of Tate but more creepy. Think I've outgrown Ella Frank.

Snjez I agree with you! I managed to finish the book, but it didn't grab me at all. To me it was mostly Viper pining after Halo, and a bit of songwriting here and there. Great review, well said!

Kelsie ♡ I actually enjoyed this one, but definitely see where you’re coming from. Viper was borderline too much for me too at times. If I wasn’t such a sucker for GFY/OFY I probably wouldn’t have liked it much at all. Hope your next one is a better match!

Dood .. it's totally fine. Not every book hits every person. I'm usually the one with the unpopular opinion but you are spot on with the "i'm hot. did i say i'm hot? i told you I was hot, right? Because I am. Hot. I'm hot" >>>> I'm still laughing

Yeah, I can totally see that. It's a bit less perpetual pining and chasing than with Logan/Tate and there's no hideous family hanging round either!

I enjoyed it but I can absolutely understand your thoughts. Book two's better imho.

Bahaha... I will have it on my mind! Thanks!
For unknown reason, I'm afraid to read an m/m book, but I'm working on my courage! I suck! I know!
I thought that halo might be a good start, but if viber is so arrogant, I might don' t like him too! And I think these days are being released Viper, as well!
Oh! I forgot to mention in my previous comment that I loved so much with your review, even though I panicked! Lol!

I don't think I've read anything by her but Ella Frank hasn't worked for me for a while.
