Eclipsed Empire (The Wolves of Crescent Creek, #2)

by Tessa Hale

grabbing for a paper towel to put under his nose.

In the lair? Are those spank bank catching paper towels??

“No. I want you to not get dead.”

First book i thought they were being silly cute about not dying or getting killed but this is the only way the author keeps writing that except when she said you will have to kill me before i ever go back or whatever

“Not his mate, my ass,” Hera muttered.

Lmaooo

“Are you stupid?”

Lmaoooo

I was still unbearably alone.

Uhg my heart

berries and cream

Berries and cream berries and cream

“You do that, and I’ll hack your high score on Candy Crush.” Puck’s jaw went slack. “You wouldn’t.” “You don’t want to come between me and my caffeine,” Locke threatened.

Lmaooo

was still on edge about my father. There was no way to know if word had somehow made it back to him that I was alive and living in Crescent Creek.

I mean you could log in to the website and check the locations for an inkling of an idea and then it would show the guys a way to start planning revenge in other ways perhaps

She swallowed hard before forcing her gaze to my face.

Uhg imagining this moment has me wanting to cry

“Maybe you disgust me.”

Rude

Tell me what they feel like.”

Kinda over the way this author writes scenes with multiple partners. Id get it if one guy did the tell me how it feels and do this or that as a kink but so far 3 have done it. I’d rather them just say what they experience unprompted. It almost gives MM vibes, but that’s the only time the relationships come across that way.

brother,”

And why do they only seem to say brother during sex lmao fuckin weird

“Like raindrops and sugar.” “Fuck,”

!?!? Oh yeah thats super sexy...?

They weren’t bond marks, but they were marks of possession,

author keeps saying this but hasn't explained how that would happen other than one is permanent and one isn’t which seems confusing. Would make more sense to involve biting without the fangs, and if fangs are involved then it’s permanent.

and the feeling of home wrapped around me.

I hate the same word being used to describe them all all the time. None of these characters have much individuality aside from weapons and one unique characteristic each other wise could be same person. Except Brix probably... He’s crazy

his sister.

Would be better to say his family since the alphas whole thing is his sister

Warrior. Mate. I swear my devotion to you and only you. Where you lead, I will follow. What you need, I will provide. My life is yours to do with as you will.”

Ahhhh

Suddenly,

Suddenly, I have hit my peak annoyance level with the writing. DNF. Constant overuse of the same words. No substance with characters. Sex scenes are terribly written, but they do have potential to be good if they were written better only because of the location choices. This book may have been better if there were only two guys based on the writing and not a reflection of my reading preferences.
