I've been reading, and enjoying, the Chase/Wilde series for years. I was DISMAYED when the author made Nina pregnant in the book prior to this one. There's nothing I hate more than a senseless pregnancy. It brings nothing to the characters or the book and just distracts from what WAS a great series. I don't know if authors think that all women want to read about pregnancies or what. I'm one who doesn't. I liked these action filled stories for what they were, mindless action, death and explosions. They were awesome!
But that all changes with a kid on the way, and I didn't like this book nearly as much because of it. Or perhaps he stopped having good ideas, because for the next book I noted that there's a time for series to end, and with this one, it should have come with book 10.
Beyond all that, this book had religious undertones all through it, and I didn't enjoy that at all either. It just wasn't a fun book for me, and that's what I read these type of books for, the fun. I said in my review of book 12 that I was done with the series, so I just need to be.
