I've read the description above on NetGalley and it sounded interesting as I've got a thing for stories about serial killers. After a few pages I was truly confused, so many characters who didn't get introduced, alphas, bounds and nanos were mentioned and used for explanations. I checked goodreads and learned that Stalked is the second installment of a series. Okay then. So the confusion I've felt hasn't influenced the following review.

I struggled to read as far as I did before I filed this book under dnf. The writing style wasn't enjoyable to me all, instead it was rather exhausting to read. On top of that I didn't feel the characters. I haven't got the feeling like I really got to know them and what I did learn about them, was rather cliched. You know the 'I never feel anything for anyone, don't even care about them but then there is you and boom! Feelings' -trope? Both main characters suffer from this. It's bad for me if there is one (mostly because it's so often badly done and used if there is no chemistry between the characters), but both of them? Ugh.

But I could have suffered through this, if that had been all. The 'bdsm' part of this novel was what gave me the rest. Micah watches how his friend get murdered by the ripper, is saved in the last second before he gets murdered too... and that makes him go into subspace?! Excuse me? I had to put it down after that. I'm afraid how the actual sex scenes are going to be, with Sorren 'I'm a dom and you're a sub, so are there objections that I wash you' and Micah 'I saw a murder and am now in subspace while having panik attacks'.

I was provided by NetGalley with a free copy in exchange for an honest review. Thank you.
