This book was just kind of mid. I loved Embry as a character, but I ended up really not liking Greer or Ash. Ash is like a walking red flag. There are so many things he does that are just not good even though he's supposed to be the heroic one. Greer was just pathetic and spineless.
The relationship between Embry and Greer felt more real than the relationship between Ash and Greer. There wasn't a ton of plot in the book. It was starting to like ramp up at the end of the book. Even though the book ended on a cliffhanger, I'm not planning to read the rest of this series.
