** spoiler alert ** 
 I need to make a new shelf called "I can't believe I actually read this." Now I know why people gave it such high reviews. The, albeit, scorching sex scenes were essentially all you have to look forward to. The writing is choppy, there's tons of plot holes, and extremely underdeveloped characters. We know the focus is Ryder and Synthia, so why focus on Synthia's best friends if you aren't going to go into detail about them? Literally, this books is like: 
 SEX SCENE 
 "Oh hey Synthia we're dating" 
 Synthia is mad for like a second 
 SEX SCENE 
 Also, why is Synthia so willing to just accept bad things that happen? She gets pissed off but it just fades away because her panties are wet. She is supposed to be this badass assassin but there isn't much action outside of the bedroom. Unless you want to stomach the writing, give this one a pass and treat yourself to better erotic fantasy.
