Escape

Spoiler- Free Review:

The Escape had me feeling lots of different things. I will start with the positive points first. The imagery that the author uses to describe Ireland makes me want to jump on a plane and escape there much like our MC did. I could literally visualize the places she was describing with no difficulty. I also liked that the MCs were older. The male MC was 37 and the female 40. It was refreshing to get an older adult POV as opposed to early 20s. Now for the things I didn't like. This was a romantic story of a troubled woman with lots of skeletons in her closet who needs to make peace with them. Those skeletons created so many plot holes. There were events that happened in the story that never got addressed again or explained. Maybe they will since this is a trilogy, I'm not sure. It ended with one of my least favorite tropes of all time. So many questions unanswered. I felt like some “twists” weren't necessary for the plot. I started with a positive outlook on the book and I enjoyed it until the last like 100 pages. Will book 2 be better? Maybe. Will I read it? Also maybe if for no other reason than to see if I get answers to my hundreds of questions. This is an adult book not sure what genre it would fall in honestly... romance? 18+ for themes and sexual content, but it's not graphic or explicit.
