The Contract (Convenience #2)

Love the story although not much happened during book two except more arguing and disagreements. I thought Lukka should have been more forgiving considering how he lied and used her when they first met.

Part 2 of Brooklyn and Luca’s story starts and ends with drama and regrets. There is plenty of inner reflection and resentment toward the other and little progress toward trying to forgive. They both are impulsive and tend to act out and present the worse to each other to hurt or control and then seem surprised when they get The desired reaction. Luca behaves the worst though because at least Brooklyn tries to earn understanding and forgiveness. Her lust for him though gives him the ability to continue to treat her badly in the name of betrayal which all had occurred before they reunited. Also he is stupid not to realize that the real enemy is Monica Shore. Guess the reader will be waiting to the end of the entire 3 sibling narrative (including sister EmZ’s future trilogy) until she gets her just rewards. So this installment is mostly sad as we see a marriage that could have had promise limp along with bitterness and regret. The sexy scenes are at times hot and at other times very predictable. The narration was first rate though duet narration rather than the back and forth by chapter would have enhanced the performance. As to the plot, very little occurs in this portion other than the struggling couple getting a dog they both love, and the reintroduction of the nemesis from book 1, so if you need to save you could probably skip this one and move on to book 3 of the trilogy. This is again an example of greed and lack of editing because what else explains the excess verbiage and Why each sibling could not have had a well constructed, properly edited single volume and the Entire Story made into a Trilogy.

I personally loved the book. However, I wish there would have been less hate. More romance.

I was really disappointed with this sequel. I wanted to like it, which is why I even gave this second part a chance, but overall it was terrible. I know that there will always be a character in a book that we’re suppose to hate, but that person should NOT be the MC. The MC was written poorly. She’s stupid, weak, and has absolutely no backbone. She can’t make a simple decision and when she does, she falters. She was completely disappointing, and no real respectful woman would ever allow a man to treat her this way. There’s no character development within the two MC’s nor was there even a story here. They both disliked each other over a simple, pathetic issue. It was as if the writer didn’t know where to go with this. I will skip the third book and just read the reviews. Overall, keep searching for another book. This one isn’t it!

I thought by book 2 they would have their childish behavior under control. The tit for tat back and forth is frustrating and consumes most of the story.
