This is the first book that I've read by this author and I'll probably try another book by her in the future. Probably ... I had a few issues with this book and I need to see if it is what happens in all of her books.
When I picked up Stop at Nothing, I was really excited. Romantic suspense has to be my absolutely favorite genre and to find a new author is like finding a pile of money sitting on your doorstep when you wake up. Anyhow ... I was excited. I immediately fell in love with Kyle Dawson. I liked his passion and drive and his smart-ass attitude. There's something sexy as hell about a witty smart-ass and I can't seem to get enough of it. I felt this way about him throughout the entire book, it wasn't just in the beginning (which sometimes happens). I hate it when a character starts to change and loses all of the qualities that I love about them. To be honest, I really liked most of the characters. I thought that all of them were really well written and I either loved them or hated them immediately. SeRine was able to elicit strong emotional ties to her characters from me and that was refreshing. I like being invested in a novel and all of that.
Soo ... there was one thing that really chapped my ass. Well ... two things ... the first being that I had a bit of a hard time differentiating between Kyle's brothers. I know that there can be some struggles with telling brothers apart in a book but this wasn't just when I was getting to know them. It was during the entire book. I just had a hard time keeping them straight and who did what and who was who and who was dating who. They were just too similar for me. I mean, yeah ... siblings are similar. Obviously that happens but when reading a book,, I prefer them to be different enough to be able to tell them apart.
Next up ... when I received this book, I didn't know that it was part of a series. After I started reading, I began to wonder if this book came in the middle of the series. There were a couple of parts in the book that felt like it either needed to be expounded upon or had already been explored in a previous novel. Come to find out, this is the first book in the series. I don't know if these few confusing situations will be explained more in future books or if they were just a glimpse of a background that we will never hear anything else about.
These two things were kind of big issues for me and I should have given this one 3 stars but I loved the characters so much, I thought it really deserved 4. I'm a reserved excited about the next book in the series, I want to read it but at the same time, what if these issues are present in this next book? It will ruin my views on this one and do I want to chance that? Only time will tell.
