MAIN CHARACTERS: Presley and Deadeye

THE GOOD: The is an Arrow inspired romance that takes place in Darkling City. So if you don't like masked vigilante men taking on a city that falls apart while kind of stalking a doctor then it's not the story for you. This is a super quick read cause it's a page turner - but it did take a few chapters to get into the world. I love the dynamic and banter between Presley and Deadeye.
THE NEUTRAL: There are times where Presley is annoying and her actions directly affect others but she blames the bad guys. The spicy scenes were interested I just wish there were more of them cause it felt a little dry and the end of the book is pretty much all action - which I did also enjoy. There are a few other things I could have done without but are pretty standard romance book plot devices like third act breakups and some miscommunication.
THE MEH: I don't want to give any spoilers but there are a few things towards the end that don't make sense. One felt like a deus ex machine and doesn't track with what is referenced before. The other I think it was just word choice - saying "weeks" instead of days or hours - cause the timeline doesn't make sense. Also, not sure I'd call this dual POV - only 6.5 chapters were from Deadeye so that's not balanced and it might have worked better if maybe just the end was in his POV without it coming sooner?
