The same thing happened with this book as the other books in this series. I started off madly in love with the characters and their relationships, and I was SO invested. And then the book went on, and on, and nothing happened except the same arguments and the same fights, and I got bored. 

I was really excited about this one. After being a side character in 2 other books in this series, I was so ready for Adelina's story. I hated her. She was so awful, and she was so awful on purpose. I wanted to slap her so many times. Honestly, in Ruined, she had such great personal growth and grew up so much. But then went right back to square one for this book. It really didn't make sense to me.
 
Burns, though. He's an entirely different story. I love him. He's the most thoughtful and caring man, and he supports her through everything (even though she's terrible to him, constantly), and he just wants her to be unashamedly her. Ooph. Swoon after swoon with him. 

I even liked Giselle's little side story thrown in there with Percy. I feel like this series was left wide open for more books, so I'll just sit over here and cross my fingers for an Ingram (pretty sure that was his name, can't 100% remember) story. And maybe Giselle's story, too. There was a bunch of hinting at her past with no real answers.

I think this story either needed something to actually happen in the plot, or it needed to be shorter. I definitely felt like we were going in circles, and it went from a 4 or 5 star boom to a 3 star book for me because of that.
