Really intriguing protagonist and plot but the character interactions were lackluster. I couldn't empathize with any one of them. With the main character being a cage fighter with a tragic background and dealing with the aftermath of a car accident, the plot was thrilling and easy to get lost in. I really wish I could say the same about the characters. There just wasn't an emotional connection that I could tether myself to with the characters. Even when something emotional was happening I couldn't get lost in the characters' feelings. There was character development in the sense that characters overcame their flaws. However, there wasn't enough build up of the character–their motivation, their passion, to really resonate with me while reading.
