Reckless

Average rating3.8
This story was both annoying and pointless.
Adena and Mac were the best 2 characters in the previous books. The novella was by far the best of the 3 and that's because we didn't have to read about Kai and Payden.
The sewer scene was gross 🤢
Ummm, how long is the chain they are tethered to? They are getting on and off of horses, running from bad guys, and she is shooting bad guys with a bow and arrow while practically having to drag an injured Kai.
Kai and Payden made me think of middle school drama. "I love him, I hate him, I love him...." Over and over and over.
Aside from the bad plot or really lack of plot, the writing was bad. I'd say about 90% of all sentences were the same in structure. They are all the same complex sentence with a comma in the middle. It was distracting. It's actually kind of impressive she wrote an entire book with one sentence type. If you don't believe me, open the book to literally any page and read 1-2 paragraphs. Once I noticed that I was done.
I finished the book because I was told the ending would shock me. It didn't. I predicted the ending when I read the 1st Kitt chapter.
This story could have been better if it was 150 pages, Kitts character was developed into a real villain, and Mak made at least one appearance. Also, the resistance was a huge plot point in Powerless. In Reckless the resistance was non-existent. They simply said the plan didn't work so we quit.
I currently have no plans on reading fearless but I'd bet it ends with kitt being "taken care of" making Kai king and Payden queen. Happily ever after. Siman and Shuster should know better than to back this.
