She gave herself time to process and basically gave herself interventions lmao. Also there wasn’t much ✨romance✨ (and when I say romance I mean emotional connection) but that’s part of the story and hopefully I’ll get that in the next book. Okay, I have to say that it was the third pov that kinda made me waver a little since I just got disconnected sometimes when there were too many she said, he said. There were so many times when I couldn’t predict what the characters would do and that’s something I truly ADORE. It came to a point where I wanted to start the book again just so I could relive their first encounter forever. I can see myself rereading this every month or some shit. It gave me EVERYTHING I had no idea was missing from my life. It’s been a MINUTE since I stayed up till 3 am to read a book. Usually I'm all about the side characters, but even Dante and Amara didn't do anything for me, because I'm already dreading how the writing is going to be □ I'm still going to read the next books, but for now I need a break. The first half was pretty much a disaster, the second half was somehow better, but I still don't care enough. I really wanted to put a sweet TristanMorana quote here, but all my highlights are 90% from them staring at each other across the room while crickets are chirping in the background or 10% fucking. The air between them stilled, dangerously. There was actually an interesting flashback scene between Tristan and Morana that I somewhat enjoyed, until I got to the point where it was revealed why Tristan hates Morana that much. Honestly, I wish I could love him more, but the way this book was written destroyed everything and was so boring. I'm going to make you so sore you won't know if it's from the screaming or the fucking." "Next time, I'm going to see how loud you can scream, Ms. That were the scenes were I was mourning this couple potential, cause they could have slapped so hard and end all other mafia couples, but nah sorry missed that mark with all the staring instead of talking. If I had to choose my favorite scenes from this book, then it probably that one or the Tristan & Morana rain kiss in the last chapter. Tristan fucking Morana in the restroom while her father's men are standing behind the door calling out to her? Yeah, even I can admit that scene was something. For the first 40% I was just begging for someone to end my misery (I'm dramatic ik just let me □□) that by the time when something interesting between the main character happened I was like Is there anything this man can't do? But due to the writing I couldn't care enough about him. Tristan had the potential to be up there with all the great heroes. The voices in my fucking head talked more than the characters in this whole book. The monlogues, the eye starring, the silence I hated everything about it. The first 40% of this book were hands down a solid 1.5 stars rating from me. I wanted to say that reading this book was such a great experience, but just looking at the rating, that would be a big lie. She didn't remove her eyes from his, and he didn't remove his from hers, neither willing to look away first. If something is missing from that list, my DM's are wide open for suggestions. Not to compliment myself, but I think I did a good job of summarizing The Predator. □ I wanna do this review for The Predator justice so I gotta mention once again the eye staring contest Tristan and Morana had going on throughout this whole book □□□ □ a voice of whiskey and sin (that was not used nearly enough) □ the words "TRISTAN CAINE" (219 times to be exact) □ did I already mentioned staring? if not, yeah, a lot of staring □□□ □ a heroine who is not just waiting for her father to arrrange a marriage for her □ a heroine in a mafia setting with a brain
