Originally deployed as a spy to bring down the mercenary pirates, the heroine quickly finds herself in a battle between her loyalty to her people and the new bonds she's created with the crew. Much to my surprise this is a futuristic romance set in space where most of Earths old customs have been forgotten. Nothing in either the cover or synopses hints at anything other than your typical run of the mill paranormal romance. But how quickly the rush of something new wore off.
My god this was simply awful. The writing style was so rudimentary and dull that I quite literally fell asleep multiple times mid chapter. First off, everything was so comically simple and robotic. The whole cast of characters were so lifeless and one dimensional that it almost put me in a coma. I liked neither the heroine with her supposedly, cooler than thou demeanor the crew remarked upon but I failed to see or the hero with his single-minded blood lust and perverted sex lust. The dude thought of nothing else and all the others laughed it off but I was put off. He had no substance. Honestly, I didn't much mind the secondary characters and would have much preferred the no nonsense GM caption to be the main heroine as I found her a tad bit more interesting. It's a bad sign when your background support characters outshine the main cast. The plot was boring as hell and though the story felt rush in a lot of things such as the two characters love, the actually point of the whole story was to get to the prison to do a break out and that didn't happen until the very end! Very much a dud of a book. Total BRUH!!!!
