I tried very hard to like this book. After all, I’m immensely enjoying good, dirty MC books that mix love and romance with dark and gritty.
Ravage Me, though was not a book for me. I really did try to see the positive aspects of it but after I reached the ending I was disappointed in myself. Why is that, you ask? Well, I promised myself hundreds or even thousands times that I won’t be torturing myslef and wasting precious reading time on something that only pisses me off.
And yet here I’m angry, frustrated and completely tired of going against my bookworm’s instinct. I should’ve ditched Ravage Me instantly after finding the thing that ticked me off. But no, I continued the journey through insta-love hell.
The story is about Harlow, a daughter of VP, who just finished her sentence in prison. She was there for two years, and now she can finally go back to her life with MC. Harlow also wants to get revenge on the chick that put her behind the bars and she won’t stop till she her blood on her fingers.
When she was away the club patched few more members and one of them is sexy Cruz.
Harlow sees Cruz and lust after him immediately. Cruz sees Harlow and wants her pussy, two seconds later… Cruz thinks Harlow is his ol’ lady. Five seconds later… they fall in love and have sex, lots of sex. Oh, and yeah it totally doesn’t matter that Harlow never sleeps with patched brothers.
I felt like Cruz got carried away. In one day he (view spoiler) His actions didn't make sense. It felt to rushed and so unrealistic…
The story, the plot, other characters even if they held a great potential were bleached for me, because I simply couldn’t let go of the insta love. I loathed it so much I felt queasy every time Cruz or Harlow were confessing their undying love.
What was wrong with these people? THERE IS NO WAY YOU LOVE SOMEONE AFTER ONE DAY OR JUST ONE LOOK. Yes, of course you can be attracted to this person. Yes, you can lust after him/her but it’s just NEED TO HAVE SEX. That’s it. Nothing more. So please, don’t throw at me this unrealistic bullshit were the unicorns are puking pink glitter and the heroine’s pussy is made of gold. Puhlease. Have mercy.
I love to read good, heartbreaking, realistic romances. I love to see how and why people fall in love. This all process is what intrigues me and catches my attention. Without it the book is just pointless, boring and stupid. Without it I have no interest of reading further.
So, Insta Love is Insta Turn off. You don’t mind it much, go for it. You absolutely, hate, loathe, dislike it? Stay away.
