If I had read this before I read the Battaglia series, I probably wouldn't have purchased the Battaglia series. The author's skills definitely improved over time. The heroine in this book was very unlikeable. She started out being selfish, greedy, and mean and she ended being selfish, greedy, and mean. There was no growth. Aiden was very much the same. They were the same and totally deserved each other. I was rooting for Pete to grow a pair and to just realize that she was not worthy of him, but it seemed like he just kept holding on, thinking that there was some goodness in her. It was a decent read, but left me unfulfilled. I read book 3 - No Regrets, and the title was true to the book. Daisy and Aiden had no regrets about anything that they had done and just kept on doing. I just felt like the lesson here was that power and money wins over love. I truly wanted Aiden to end up paralyzed, pissing in a bag and Daisy living in a trailer park - that would have been an HEA for me (lol).
