 I'm tapping out. I really liked the first 2 books in this series, but I was very hesitant to read this one... And I was right to be. 
 Talia is utterly broken and broken heroines get on my last nerve. All the 'Woe is me' talk really irritates me. 
 If they start off broken but find their inner strength... Great. But staying broken, not my cup of tea. This far in and she's still thinking of ways to off herself? I just can't. 
 Then their sex scenes. Ughh. All the spanking and dirty talk just doesn't feel authentic to me. Idk why but I was just so freaking bored reading them. 
 Maybe becuase Alexei felt the need to constantly remind Talia he would never love me. Like OK I GET IT. Some girl ripped out your heart and you'll take it out on Talia. 
 So I'm done.
