Helpful Score: 4
I read this in a day and a half, not that it is overly long, but that it was only an okay read. Pacing issues toward the middle remain consistent with this book as it did with the first two. Her setting descriptions continue to be just the right amount to keep you in the story.
The male characters were well drawn. I think Styx is my favorite of the three heroes so far in this series. He's so ancient...a warrior who falls so hard for his love he overcomes an old hatred. The female characters are another story. With this third book, it was even more evident the heroines are cookie cutter molds of each other. Again the heroines dialogue was corny beyond words. This time, it actually pulled me out of the story.
I wont be continuing this series. I gave it three books and while I love the heroes I cant deal with the heroines. Sorry Ms. Ivy, but I dont know any one who uses Cripes, Yowser, and Holy Guacamole in real life and doubt most modern day Chicago citizens do either.
