Austin by Kali Hart
2.0

This is a hard review for me to write. I actually read this months ago, but went back and reread the series today so that I could finally put up a rating on this one.

I enjoyed the first two novellas. I even gave the second one, Hudson, 4 stars. But this one just didn’t work for me. I felt that both Austin and Liz were just very bland. And I didn’t feel the chemistry between them.

I know a lot of readers aren’t into novellas or short stories because it can be hard for authors to really flesh out a character in under a hundred pages. I’m actually a fan of shorter reads. While I enjoy longer books as well, sometimes I just want a quick HEA that I can read in little time. And I have read many authors who are able to bring their characters to life, even with the limited number of pages. I think that Kali Hart did an excellent job of that in the first two books in this series. I just didn’t feel it with this one. Still, the series as a whole is at least a three star read, and I do recommend it for anyone looking for a quick, insta love, no angst HEA.
