This book was fine. I liked the premise well enough, and the characters were pretty interesting to start, but it wasn’t spectacular. Just fine.
The main problem I had with this book was that I expected more action. The premise revolves around a stalker escalating their violence. The body guards are all ex-military. I wanted more of that. More about their military days. More drama. More to the stalker.
Other nitpicks are that I just didn’t love Briar. She was fine but not my favorite heroine. The heroes were also a little flatter than I’d have liked. It felt like Matt got the most screen time, but I still barely knew him. All three of them felt like they were reduced to one (1) flaw they had to overcome. Not great.
The sex scenes were also fine, but became repetitive. This is especially true if you’ve read other Lily Gold books.
Worth reading if you like Lily Gold or “why choose?” romance, but not my favorite.
