well... I liked it, I thought it was an entertaining read... until the end of chapter 14.
Now, you may wonder ‘what happened so drastically on chapter 14 that changed your opinion?'
and the answer is that it's nothing that happened in that chapter in particular, it's that I lost patience with the protagonist (Beth) on chapter 14.
The continued assumptions from her that the love interest (scotty) hates her because he didn't act like he liked her for 100 years (even though she admits that she was an angry and bitter person until like 10 years ago) and that's why he hasn't ‘claimed' her as his lifemate; without ever having inquired to him as to why he hasn't ‘claimed' her, is highly annoying.
Plus when her life is in danger (after multiple attempts on it) she stubbornly and to her own detriment refuses to listen to scotty when he says she should stay at the house of the immortal enforcer agency they both work with/for, and have bodyguards, until they (other enforcers, and presumably scotty) can neutralize the threat.
He's the head of the uk's enforcer division that covers multiple countries, with literally hundreds of years of experience with tracking, hunting, and killing ‘rogue' vampires, and she still wouldn't listen to sound advice that maybe she shouldn't be putting herself in unnecessary danger. Especially when she herself is an enforcer and, I would hope, have some enough sense to understand that he has a point, but no... she'll takes any opportunity to go out and promptly get almost killed... and then pout that, even though they both are attracted to one another, that even though they've had sex, that even though he's never said that he didn't want to claim her, he doesn't want her.
I usually don't mind formulaic plots and tropes but the childish ‘I don't have to do what you say' that's mildly disguised as her being a feminist combined with the ‘why haven't you pursued me (or in this case ‘claimed me') really makes me roll my eyes.
however, I did see this book out to the end.
The ‘tell each other our backstories, to understand each other better' and the reveal of Beth's attempted assassin that followed was fine (cliché, but fine), although it was tainted by my frustrations for the above reasons.
All in all if you like tropes, over done clichés, and don't mind a 125+ year old being unable to just have a direct conversation to her 800+ year old potential love interest, than this book will probably be an enjoyable read for you.
