This book is most definitely written by ai. The grammar is horrible and the story makes no sense. I cannot find accounts for the author and the profile photo looks photoshopped and potentially also ai. Not worth reading.
This book was so ridiculously confusing. The more you read the worse it gets. I don't think anyone proof read this book including the author who must have been drunk during the writing of it. So many things are wrong in this book. Like Paragraphs in the same chapter. Timelines Timelines don't add Timelines don't add up it'll be Wednesday then Tuesday then Wednesday again. Met shades grandfather for the 1st time twice chapters apart. Ivan and jade bird to each other is it they were married but didn't even get engaged to me end of the book. When they look back in time they met 3 years ago but then on their anniversary their 1st time at the cabin only happened a year ago. I meet a man frank for the 1st time but then talk about how they knew him for a year and 1⁄2. Sometimes part way through a tractor you're a different point of view Would be James but then suddenly partly through your Ivan and that paragraph doesn't even happen until almost the end of the book. How it ended up chapters before in the middle of Jade's POV is beyond me. How about how Ivan even though him and jade had only been together for 3 months suddenly had been 3 years this is just messed up book. And that is just a tip of the iceberg of the things that are wrong in this book. Is all I would have taken for somebody to notice all these messed up things. This Was an extremely difficult read to make it to the end And I really had to ignore some of the really confusing things and just stick to the facts which we're confusing at best. So if you choose to read this book good luck. It really needs to be pulled and corrected I have no idea how this book is even published or on amazon.
I realized this is a series. However it is very confusing. Book one has Lilly and Alek getting married and eventually having a baby girl whom everybody dotes on and Lily receives the infamous ring from Alek's mother's side. But in book 2, there is no baby. The ring goes to Jade from Ivan and twins arrive and somehow there are references to the other brother Mikkail being married....huh? None of that appeared in the first book of the series nor the fact that Lilly and Alek had lost a baby. At first I kind of liked the rapidfire presentation of writing but then, there are out of sequence facts that make it difficult to follow. I gave the story 3 stars simply because in essence it is a good story. But the editing is just as poor as the first one. It reads as though paragraphs are written, and then pasted together, and if the pasting sequence is off, it throws the whole storyline off. If the author meant for the series timeline to follow numerically, either she or whoever may be helping is not remembering the details from book to book! It hurts an otherwise good story!
This book has one of those rare premises that immediately grabs you—there’s a genuinely strong story underneath it all, and at times it’s compelling enough that you want to keep pushing forward just to see where it ends up. The core idea is interesting, and when the plot focuses on its main thread, it actually works quite well.
Unfortunately, the execution doesn’t live up to that potential. The timelines often don’t quite line up in a way that feels logical or fully thought through, and the narrative structure felt scattered. Important transitions are either rushed or unclear, which makes it hard to stay fully grounded in what’s happening from one chapter to the next.
Overall, it reads like a story with real potential that needed a much stronger editorial hand. The foundation is there, and the concept is solid, but the uneven writing and disconnected events keep it from becoming the book it could have been.
too many inconsistencies, this book is all over the place, changes from years instead of months inside the same chapter. Ivan for some time has one eye like Alek from book one and than he has two eyes again, Lily in book 1 has a best friend Hayden and now he is Jades best friend and Lily just meets him, Hayden was a a mayor part in book one. Time line in the book does not match anything in book one. It needs a better proof reader someone how know what they are doing.
You find out at the end what happen to Lily's baby in one line. You do not find out how or when he got shoot relating to book one, over all I finished the book to find out what happened and happy that I am on Kindle. Will try book 3, but know what is going because most got told in book two, just to see if they managed to get a better proof reader
I read all kinds of books. Historical fiction, Crime, Medical drama ,many by S.King, R.Cook, Alison Weir . I never bother to review because I believe that just because I like or dislike a book doesn't necessarily mean everyone will have that opinion. I must review this one! A"Wicked Bratva Romance"???? This was the most beautiful, soft ,well written love story I ever read. The way the author has the characters speak to each other (and to us) is beautiful. The way the characters come together is something I've never read before. I highly recommend this book
The overall story was good however it was, very repetitive and it seemed like on many many occasions the other wrote two different scenes and left them both in to basically repeat themselves a paragraph later. The timelines and year references were all over the place. It almost felt like bad A.I which sucks because I was invested but don’t think I can read the third book.
Once again, a great story from the author that holds your attention from the very beginning. The journey Jade and Ivan take together has action, danger, secrets, romance, passion, connection, and much more. A real page-turner and highly recommended!
I received an Advance Reader copy of this series and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Ivan meets Jade when his doctor hires her to be his physical therapist after he has shoulder surgery. Loved the part where they both fall asleep in Evans wheel chair and his brother Daniel finds them. They fall in love and Jade becomes pregnant. A woman who wanted Ivan threatened Jade if she didn't leave Ivan so she runs off. Good story.
this was so poorly written that I couldn't get past 25% Book 1 was good, but a riddled with digital edit errors. I did like the characters and the storyline premise... Decided to try book 2 in the hopes that the day drinking editor had been fired prior to book 2. Seems they were not, and the writing style in book 2 is completely different. Its, to be blunt, awful.
Such a wonderful read. This one snuck up on me. It didn't take long for me to be deep into this story. I love the pacing, the unusual cadence of the dialog and narrative. So different from the usual story. I just know that this story and these characters will stay with me for a very long time.
Ivan is a sexy Bratva enforcer. Jade is beautiful PT. She is sent to help him recover from a bad incident. He doesn’t like people cuz he is a loner. He has been hurt before so he doesn’t let women in. But something about Jade sticks with him. This book leaves you smiling and happy. So dang good.
Very unique story and written somewhat differently. I usually do not take a breaks from a story but I did for this one however I did go back and finish it. I like it just struggled with the writing style.
I want to enjoy it so badly. I feel like it's written by someone who just learned to write in English. I've even tried to read it incorrectly / how it should be written. My brain is just not having it. The story line is good, just reading it is too uncomfortable.
- years instead of months - choppy - inconsistent - timelines don't work in several places - finished because I was close and needed the ending - novel never flowed well
Good story bad execution! Author must not remember what she wrote! Lily from first book is a pregnant at the end but I n this one no pregnancy or baby? She just got bored after awhile n just went to last chapter to see what happens.
DNF. There are so many grammatical errors. One brother has only one eye but now so does this guy? It was just so distracting. The writing is bad. It’s very disjointed and it is slow as molasses. I just couldn’t anymore.
Good story but the writing and or grammar were not great. I am horrible at where things go but this made no sense. It jumped ahead. It had incorrect information people being referred to by the wrong names. The repetitive wording.
As much as I like the bratva/mafia tropes this is a dnf for me and definitely not even trying to read anymore by this author. It read like ai slop and the writing was just absolutely atrocious.
Okay, second book a bit better than the first. Story line good but , again, paragraphs that are out of place. She runs-he has no clue where or why. Next paragraph he knows all. Then he doesn’t. He learns it all in the next chapter. See? She needs a better proofreader!!
Absolutely horrendous writing- it has to be Ai HAS TO BE! The interactions between the two MC’s is so incredibly unbelievable it’s laughable. DNF at 40% and I scrolled through most of that.
It was terrible dialog. I had trouble following anything they were saying or describing. Repeating a lot of words or sentences. Do not waste your time reading.
The story line is good. I had a hard time with the way the wording was done. I don’t know if it was because the mmc is Russian…. I didn’t give up finishing it but I did think about it several times…
I literally felt like I was reading a Dr. Seuss mafia book. The way they repeated almost every sentence made it daunting to finish. It was a difficult book to finish.
