| I read this novella originally in the box set Dark and Deadly: Eight Bad Boys of Paranormal Romance.
This story definitely has potential, but really, it was missing something. Either it needed more world-building, or more clarity on the hero. Basically, he comes from his world to hunt hellhounds, but he knows it’s a suicide mission, as his people rarely come back? <–I guess, this is where it was a little confusing. Plus it was his first time hunting hellhounds, and I don’t know. It just needed more. I’m beginning to see that I feel that way about this author every time. That her books are almost. Almost amazing, Almost intriguing characters, Almost compelling. But I see a pattern of plotholes and not explaining very well. It’s a shame since her stories have interesting concepts and the world-building is good. I may have to give up on her :/ |
