Corrupted Hearts #4
Save Me
In this fast-paced romantic suspense, China Mack will make one final choice.
Computer genius China Mack may be the former head of Vigilance, the government’s clandestine spy program, but she can still be knocked off balance. And two back-to-back personal blows have thrown her into a tailspin.
While her relationship with tech billionaire Jackson Cooper is on the rocks, China is testing the boundaries of what she feels for man-of-mystery Clark Slattery. But when China learns that her mother’s death sixteen years ago wasn’t an accident, she can’t rest until she knows the truth. And China’s own father, an elusive ex–CIA agent, might have been the killer. To avenge her mother’s death, she needs help, and both Jackson and Clark step up to the plate. But when her investigation is linked to a decades-old international plot to hack the New York Stock Exchange, putting both of the men she loves in danger, China must make an impossible decision to keep them safe.
As the three of them are plunged into a far-reaching conspiracy, China’s notions of love and trust are turned upside down. For China, this final case couldn’t be more personal—or more dangerous.

I'm so sad to see the end to China's story. She was such a unique character and I loved every book in this series. Even having the dreaded love triangle could not damper my love of this series. I honestly didn't know what man China was going to end up with, even all the way up to the end. That was pretty impressive of the author.
China will appeal to the readers who like unique heroines. She has borderline Ausperger syndrome. You see it in the way she struggles to understand sarcasm or joking behavior. She takes everything literally and she has that need to keep a rigid schedule. Most just see her as the super smart hacker/nerd who is beautiful but doesn't see that in herself. Her life goes on a tailspin when she gets embroiled into all kinds of trouble due to her hacking abilities and the attention she draws from it.
Two men who battle to be the love of China's life couldn't be more opposite in personality and looks. I fell for both of these men and would have been happy to see China with either one of them. I'm so glad to learn that the one not picked will have his own series because I loved him and want to see him happy as well.
You do need to read from book 1 since this is a continued story of China. I highly recommend it if you enjoy romantic suspense with unique characters.

SPOILER ALERT
Love Tiffany Snow and everything she does, I am completely selfish in my 3 star rating because of who China chose in the end.
Cooper, really? Bring on Clark's book because I need to see him happy in the end, even if it isn't with China.

AbsoFREAKINGlutely NAILED IT!!!! After a worrisome turn of events in the previous installment of this unique and creative series, I was anxious to see how things would sort out for China, Jackson and Clark et. all. Couldn’t have guessed, couldn’t have imagined better than what Ms. Snow delivered!
China starts out just as torn between two equally awesome men and begins down the same path I hated previously but then, she does an about-face and determines to do the right thing, at her own expense. Who knew what the consequences of that decision would be! With enough twists and turns to tie even the most calloused reader in knots, “Save Me” had me anxiously turning pages, chewing my nails (completely gone now) to the very last page. It was heart-breaking, yet satisfying and that is an almost impossible task to accomplish. Yet, this author did it to perfection.
So.... how soon can we gobble up the yummy sequel on the character who lost out??!?!?!

As good as these books are China really is quite frustrating, she is so up and down with Jackson and Clarke you just end up feeling for both of them, and wondering why they would put up with her jerking their emotions around and still managing to feel sorry for herself that these two hot guys are in love with her. And then there's the funereal at the end are you kidding me well that sucks but that's that way the cookies crumbles.
An yet still a good read and totally worth it.

Who out there knows what Robert Plutchik's theory of the eight basic emotions is? Well, let me tell you, you’ll experience them all when you read this book. Fear, anger, sadness, joy, disgust, surprise, trust and anticipation – nicely wrapped up and presented by Tiffany Snow as “Save Me”, the fourth and final book in the amazing Corrupted Heart series.
In book three, “Find Me”, we were left on tenterhooks after China broke up with tech genius billionaire Jackson Cooper and walked into the waiting arms of sexy bad-boy Clark Slattery.
As much as she has grown emotionally, poor China is still totally oblivious in the land of love. Although Clark knows what he wants, China reads everything wrong and their burgeoning relationship just stumbles around awkwardly. Although initially spurning her olive branch in a fit of anger, Jackson realises he cannot let China go and lurks in the shadows, just waiting for the opportunity to step back into the role of China’s saviour. Both men see their opportunity when China sets her sights on finding her biological father – public enemy number 1, Mark Danvers.
President Blane Kirk’s BFF, Kade Dennon - everyone’s favourite hero from Tiffany’s brilliant Kathleen Turner Series – figures quite prominently in this book (I’ll never get enough of Kade’s one-liners “Yeah, I’m not a psychiatrist, but you might want to see someone about that”) and drops some news on China that shocks her to the bottom of her Converse. Whilst processing this, her brother sends her a Chinese puzzle box he found when clearing out their father’s house. Knowing immediately that it was left for her by her mother, the contents finally answer some of China’s many questions regarding her mother’s relationship with Danvers, but also leads her into a whole new area of investigation involving corrupted software, the New York Stock Exchange and a cranky old man in possession of something China never knew she’d wanted.
China’s loyalty to both Jackson and Clark puts her into some serious predicaments and neither man is particularly happy about this. (Look out for the great scene in a hotel room in New York, where China – posing as a lady of the night – actually meets up with another tech genius she has followed for years). However, after some soul-searching China decides to do what she thinks is the most honourable thing – she sets both men free. Or, she tries to. But sorry girlfriend, neither of those alpha boys is going to let you go. They actually team up and follow China as she sets out on a quest that nobody is going to talk her out of – avenging her mother’s death.
I’m not going to say anything about the last quarter of the book because it needs to be read and absorbed. All those emotions I mentioned earlier? Yeah, this is where they will throw you for six and I recommend having on hand the largest box of tissues you can find. China makes her decision on which man is the one for her, but naturally Tiffany is not going to let her have a happily ever after without throwing a few curve balls in front of her. One of those curve balls is surprising, and for us devotees of Tiffany’s work, shines a light on what was otherwise a devastating scene.
Our heroine China has grown up. Although she still struggles with social niceties, no longer is she the innocent girl we met in book one, “Follow Me”, where her most pressing concern was ensuring each carefully planned day is executed successfully. In “Save Me”, she takes each day by the short and curlies and smashes it out of the park. Via different mechanisms we see glimpses of China’s past and the complex person who is China fits together nicely. It really is a testament to the author’s skills in character building.
China’s guys, Jackson and Clark, are there for her through thick and thin. It was incredibly difficult trying to guess which man would win China’s heart but in the end it all came down to a simple question of loyalty.
This book closes out this series brilliantly and I’m going to miss China, Clark and Jackson. However, there is that little shining light to look forward to…

As I have mentioned before, Tiffany Snow is the queen of writing love triangles. I could not wait for the opportunity to read the final book in the Corrupted Hearts series just to know who our girl-China Mack rides off in the sunset with.
Save Me is what I have come to expect from a Snow novel. It’s fast-paced with plenty of action and romantic drama. As China faces a new set of problems, these being close to the heart, I was on pins and needles to the very end. Speaking of the ending....What a beautiful way to wrap up this series. From the girl we met in Follow Me to the woman she has become in this final installment, I was happy for her to find her HEA. Now, it was not with the man I was cheering for but I do believe he was the right one for her character.
Can’t wait to see what Ms.Snow has up her sleeve next!

3.5 stars
Tiffany Snow brings China's story to a close in this series. There are reunions, break-ups, faked deaths and more in this roller coaster ride. For me the highlight of this entire series is that China is crazy smart professionally but a mess when it comes to figuring out her own emotions, which she does in the end of course. For fans of her Kathleen Turner series Blake and Kade make an appearance in this and Blake does have his happy-ending. Kade makes more of an on-page appearance though. I did feel China's choice was fairly obvious throughout the series because there was only one person she had developed a more deeper connection with. All in all I think this series was a better effort from Tiffany.

I wish I could give this book more than 5 Stars. It is amazing and packed full of all the feels from despair to complete happiness. I honestly don't know how Tiffany Snow does it. She takes the reader on an emotional roller coaster like few authors are able to do. This is the fourth and final book in the Corrupted Hearts series, which I have been captivated with from book one. China Mack finally gets the answers to the questions which have been dogging her, who really killed her mother and why, who is the love of her life and is she capable of a forever relationship? The ending sent me to tears. It was not at all what I was expecting, but certainly did not disappoint. If you don't read any other books this year, you absolutely must read Save Me and the entire Corrupted Hearts series.
March 19, 2018
TIFFANY SNOW has never let me down story wise and this series was no different. This last book SAVE ME in the CORRUPTED HEARTS series is the absolute best of her works. China has grown through the stories and has lost a few of her obsessive tendencies but when she is alone and in possible danger she draws back on them to find her comfort zone. Her men, Jackson and Clark want nothing more than to protect her and love her but feel helpless when she throws herself out there without them as her net. But, we know how they are, they won't leave her hanging when she really needs them. Decisions are hard for China, but in a moment of clarity she makes hers. someone has to be left behind right. Sweet, sad, heartbreaking, nail biting, joyful and so funny describes your journey in SAVE ME. Enjoy!

LOVED this book! This is the conclusion of the Corrupted Hearts series and it did not disappoint - I was literally flipping pages just as quickly as possible. This novel is fast paced romantic suspense at it's best. China is a highly skilled computer programmer/hacker, who is torn between Jackson and Clark - two men who couldn't be more different, but who are both in love with China. Add in the drama of her father's past and the violence that surrounds anything related to him, and you have all the components for a thoroughly engaging and satisfying novel.
While this is a stand alone novel, you will appreciate it so much more if you've read the prior books in the series. This one is a a must read for fans of the genre....actually, anything by this author is a must read as she is a master at her craft and is on my must read authors' list.

A finale that is fitting
All hail the queen of the love triangle! Ms. Snow is ultimate author when it comes to love and choosing between two. She went all out for this finale and I don’t think anyone will be disappointed in the outcome, no matter which guy you wanted to win. It was fantastic!

Oh WOW! What an ending to this thrilling ride we have been on with China, Jackson and Clark. Tiffany Snow has done it again and brought to life characters that will stay with me for a very long time.
Action and intrigue dominate this series with revenge and betrayal hot on their heels, and emotions run high throughout this final book in the saga of China Mack. Jackson and Clark are back to help China in her hunt for vengeance against her mother's death but the more time they spend together the more China's feelings are sent into turmoil. What is a girl to do when she has two extremely sexy men vying for her affections?
I was very much Team Clark through the majority of this series, I do think that was in part due to the fact that his character is very similar to my absolute favourite book boyfriend - Kade Dennon, and as such I have a soft spot for him. As this story progresses it becomes harder to determine who is best for China but I do think that the right choice has been made in the end.
Word of warning....tissues will be required. I cried! I'm not afraid to admit it. This book made me cry! Several times in fact. There are some extreme heartbreaking moments for China but also some very happy ones as well.
Thank you Tiffany Snow for bring some wonderful characters to life and letting us share in the world you have created. Looking forward to seeing what comes next.

This is the fourth and final installment in the Corrupted Hearts series. During this series, we have been gifted with 3 interesting characters, including a smart and strong heroine and 2 strong, albeit different, heroes.
The good: per usual, Tiffany Snow delivered an action packed and exciting finale. There was steam, angst, and choices to be made. But who, pray tell, did China Mack choose? Ms. Snow made us love both Clark and Jackson, but just like in Highlander, there can only be 1. I will not spoil this for anyone, so you'll have to read the book to find out.
The so-so: this is where I'm torn. Although I liked this book really hard, I didn't love it the way I've loved her other books. There were times that I felt the plot was rushed or missing elements that would solidify and support what was going through the characters heads. When all was said and done, my stingy and selfish heart wanted more build up there at the end.
But that ending!!! Jeez. The nerve of this naughty author. I shed actual tears. Then, I suppressed the urge to throw my ereader. Then, I realized that I really liked and appreciated what the author had done.
4-4.5 stars for making me love these characters. I'm taking a half a star because I'm a jerk and don't agree with China's choice.
Thank you to Montlake and Netgalley for providing this ARC.

I love/hate love triangles -lol - I was genuinely upset with China's choice, but that's the sign of a good author. Tiffany Snow has this way of bringing her characters to life so you feel attached to them. I feel like I'm slightly in book-mourning after finishing this series and I understand now how all the readers felt about Kathleen's choice between Blaine and Kade. I won on that series, and lost on this one.

I absolutely adore this series and simply can’t get enough of China Mack.
A techno geek, China has a brilliant mind and a beautiful body and it is that combination makes the men in her life fight for her love and affection. Books with a strong female lead are particularly captivating for me especially when the female is brilliant, beautiful, quirky and loved by all. Overall, this series has been like a breath of fresh air. It gave me everything that I wanted and more. The writing was strong and the storyline particularly fascinating and insightful. The blend of China’s strange OCD ways offset against her brilliant IT mind and the love triangle involving the men who will do anything to protect her was charming and delightful.

I received this book as an ARC from Net Galley. I have been a Tiffany Snow fan for quite some time. I have read every book she has written. I've liked some more than others. The Kathleen Turner Series will always have a special place in my heart. I really liked this series because it reminded me most of the Kathleen Turner Series, and the fact that everyone's favorite bad boy, Kade Dennon keeps showing up, made me like it even more. This book gives China Mack one more interesting adventure, and as always it's filled with her unintended misadventures. Poor China can never have just a run of the mill ordinary day, and for a woman who likes order and predictability that's often hard for her to handle.
In this the last of the series, China learns a lot more about her mother, and her mother's subsequent death, which turns out wasn't totally the car crash she always thought it was. We also learn more about her father, which we learned in the last book was not the man who raised her. It's a long twisty adventure to piece together, how and why her mom died. Just when she thinks she's found all the answers, she ends up with more questions.
By her side trying to get to the bottom of her concerns are of course Jackson Cooper and Clark Slatterty, the two men who she loves. She's just not sure which one she's in love with. Each has their strengths and weaknesses. Each can help her get to some answers she's looking for. She also needs to figure out who she can't live without. I will admit that her final choice wasn't my choice, as this male had never been my favorite. Unlike the Kathleen Turner Series, where I loved both Blane and Kade, I just didn't love who she chose. Not willing to give spoilers here, one just needs to read it for themselves. I have no intentions of deducting stars for who she chose or being a mean girl as I'd seen with the Kathleen Turner Series when Kat chose Kade.
I can not wait for the new series which I saw in the author's acknowledgements will hopefully be coming out this year. He was my favorite, from book one, and I'm curious to see the turn of events that he will follow. Foreshadowing also appears that Kade will be sticking around for that one too, which just makes me happier.

March 20, 2018 Review to come
March 15, 2018
This is the fourth China Mack adventure. This time China has broken up with her billionaire tech boyfriend Jackson Cooper and is trying out a relationship with the mysterious Clark Slattery. This causes borderline Asperger's China all sorts of stress because she has real conflicts about falling in love and loves both of those very different men.
When China learns that her mother's death when China was eight was not an accident and that her mother's lover Mark Danvers who also happens to be her father might have been the one to murder her, China is determined to find out if the information is true and if so to find her missing father. When she discovers her ex-CIA agent mother's journal and a video, she learns that despite being married, her mother falls completely in love with fellow agent Danvers and conducts an affair with him that results in China's birth. The idea that Danvers then killed her mother convinces China that love can only lead to the ultimate betrayal.
When following her mother's trail leads to the discovery of a computer program that was put in place to protect the New York Stock Exchange from the Y2K virus but had a suspicious backdoor, she and Jackson find themselves the target of murderers who don't want that mysterious backdoor to come to the public's attention. They barely escape with their lives.
China decides to leave both of her men behind and go off the grid to find her missing father and find out what really happened when her mother died. There she spends time using her computer programming skills to track down her father and set up a trap for him. But, while she is doing her thing, both Jackson and Clark are doing theirs. Clark calls on his CIA contacts to track down Danvers and Jackson uses his tech genius to follow the money. The final confrontation happens in New Orleans where China finally decides which of the men she is in love with and learns things about her father that change her viewpoint about him.
I really like China. She is not good with social clues, collects all sorts of fandom memorabilia, has a pretty inflexible routine for her life, is a way-off-the-charts genius, and has a flawed self-image. I'm glad that her story ends up with a happy ending.

I wish I could give this book more than 5 stars. While it took me longer to read than the previous 3, I do have an excuse. I finished over 3/4 of it in less than 5 hours, however, that last 1/4 of it was spent reading while at my Grandma's while we were there to celebrate my daughters 5th birthday party and Easter. So it really wasn't an ideal time to read and concentrate on a book!
Though it did take me longer than the previous 3 books I really enjoyed the book. She took us on an emotional roller coaster in this book, and I still stand firm in my taking the side of Team Jackson! I don't really know what it is about Clark that just rubs me wrong, but I wasn't really a fan of him. I was rooting for a forever happy for Jackson and China the whole time!
I loved that China finally got some kind of closure in some questions that she had before. Such as who actually killed her mother, who her father was (once she found out that the man she grew up thinking wasn't her dad), why her mom was really killed, which man (Jackson or Clark) did she REALLY love AND is she really capable of a forever relationship.
I'm not going to go into detail, but I will say that I was brought to tears by the ending. I'm not entirely sure I was actually ready for this series to end.

Where to start? I absolutely loved Save Me and wow what an awesome end to an awesome series!
You will need tissues at the ready as this book will take you on a roller coaster ride of twists and turns full of laughs and tears.

China sets out to avenge her mother's death after finding out she was murdered. She can't do it alone and Jackson and Clark step in to help her and thus begins one hell of an adventure with such a perfect finale!!!
Thank you very much to NetGalley, the publisher and Tiffany Snow for the advance copy of Save Me my review is honest and totally unbiased in any way.

I absolutely LOVE this series. Tiffany Snow did not let me down with this book. I couldn't put it down and read it in one sitting. This book keeps you at the edge of your seat the entire book wondering what is going to happen and who she picks. I will not say much because I don't want to spoil this for others but I personally was happy with who she picked. I also am excited because there is another series coming soon. So which team are you? :).
Also on a side note I love all the techie references. As a female programmer its so fun to read about a kick ass female programmer.
Thanks Tiffany for letting me read an advance copy. You did not disappoint and I can not wait to read the rest of your books.

Wow this is going to be a hard review to write, it’s hard saying goodbye to a series that I have absolutely adored! I’m going to have to go with 4.5 stars for this one, I absolutely loved the story, the plot was fantastic and well thought out as usual, I enjoyed all the twists and turns, but it did not play out the way I was expecting it to, and I found that a little hard to adjust to.
China is probably my favourite Tiffany Snow heroine and I have enjoyed her story, but I have to say, I’m even more excited for what’s to come next! Bring it on!

What a bittersweet story. Save me is the final book in the Corrupted Hearts series by Tiffany Snow and it slayed me!! I have a confession. I totally ruined this book for myself. I wasn't even 10% in when I made the decision to see who she ended up with... bad idea. I wasn't to thrilled so I ended up getting upset and I sat this book down and couldn't work up the courage to pick this story back up for a week. I am obsessed with Tiffany Snow's books, so for me to be able to walk away for that long you know that I was really butt hurt. It wasn't really that I didn't want to read the other guy win, but it was because I didn't want to read the book and have her change my mind. I was determined to have my guy win. Not only did I know this, but then I searched a couple of other keywords with that handy little search tool that the kindle gives us and guess what? I found another HUGE spoiler! Great job Joy. You're doing really awesome with this book, right?
Okay. Saying all of that, Save Me still earned five stars from me! The angst and anticipation just about killed me, hence all of the spoilers, but it was still completely gut wrenching and heart breaking for me to read. This book is completing the major story arc of trying to find out what really happened with China's mother. It was such a tragic love story with gripping intensity that had you needing to know what would happen.
China has come so far from when we first met her in this series, from when she could hardly break a routine to now where her entire world has been flipped on it's head. She has learned how to defend and stand up for herself. She has really come into her own and I just really enjoyed watching her learn and grow and become a stronger woman!
Save Me was a great finale for the Corrupted Hearts series and Snow's next series is already my most anticipated series for the rest of 2018!! If you are looking for a series with heart pounding intensity that brings the heat and heart breaking angst, you need the Corrupted Hearts series!

I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.
China dealing with a lot of stuff that takes her way out of her comfort zone. She is trying to find out the motive behind her mother’s death while also tracking down her biological father who is the likely killer. She is also dealing with a complicated love life. She wants to start something to Clark but his holding back because of her feeling for Jackson.
Tiffany Snow write the absolute best love triangles. I got mad at China early on for her indecision and the way she dealing with Clarke and Jackson. But I realised it didn’t which man China chose because I loved them both. And I knew when China’s decision was made I’d be both incredibly happy and horribly heart broken and I was right. By the end of the story I was equally happy and sorrowful and I had shed many tears.
But it wasn’t all tears and love included drama. The search for the truth about her mother and biological father has China and Jackson uncovering a huge secret that put all their lives in danger. The action is thrilling and I love chasing the mystery and uncovering the truth because it wasn’t what I was expecting.
Save me is brilliant. The final instalment of the Corrupted Hearts series comes to a wonderful and emotional ending and it is done perfectly. I love this series so much and each book was 5 stars for me. I can’t recommend the Corrupted Hearts series highly enough.

I first have to say that no one can write a love triangle like Tiffany Snow - she has the uncanny way of making all her characters so likable that the readers end up loving all three. This is definitely the case with China, Jackson, and Clark in the Corrupted Hearts series. Save Me is the perfect ending for these characters.
Picking up where Find Me ends - we find China at a crossroads with both the men in her life and just life in general. After she finds her mothers old journals and video she goes on a quest to avenge her mother's death and in the process finally takes a stand for herself and has to make the most difficult choice between Jackson and Clark once and for all.
The other things Ms Snow is so good at is writing a tech mystery/thriller/romance. I was sucked into the story from the get-go and since we know these characters so well we didnt have the 50 pages of character intros that in this type of story can slow things down. We also get a visit from Kade and he is just as big of a pain as he has always been but it was so great to have him back in and out of the story. That being said this is truly China's story and the choices she needs to make to survive this final mystery in her life.

What an ending to an incredibly good series.
China has a difficult choice to make in choosing between two men. I had my hopes on Jackson even though I had a soft spot for Clarke as well. The reader is kept in the dark, much like the two guys, right up to the moment where she finally makes her choice at the end of the book.
The love triangle is a central theme running through the series but the story is much more diverse than that. There is the mystery surrounding China's mother's death. Was she murdered? and why?
China decides to go it alone to track down her mother's killer which leads to the resurfacing of painful memories and to a father with blood on his hands. The events surrounding her mother's death are very sad and emotionally charged.
A day in the life of China Mack is full of action and suspense. It doesn't matter which mam she spends her day with she will still end up battered after fighting off dangerous criminals. The many twists and turns kept it fresh and exciting.
It helped that there was humour in the interactions between Jackson and Clarke. Their jealousy fuelled them to behave quite juvenile like at times but I liked that they could put their feelings aside to work together in helping China when she needed it the most.
I loved every minute of this series. I'm already counting the days until the next Tiffany Snow book releases.

OMG!!! My face hurts from ugly crying! There were quite a few times my eyes were leaking their water, but one major time I was crying until I couldn’t breathe! Okay, I’m going to calm down now and write this review without getting excited again, I hope.
Tiffany Snow has made it no secret Save Me is the last book of the Corrupted Hearts series. As a last book, this one does not disappoint. What is disappointing and I totally didn’t like (JUST MY OPINION!!) was who China decides to pursue a lasting relationship with (I’m not telling you if I’m #TeamJackson or #TeamClark). Before she makes her decision, she has to track down a killer.
I didn’t want to put this book down once I started it. I was sucked in with who China would choose and also her past.
Things don’t unfold quickly in the suspense department of who she’s going to decide on, but it is an intense and angsty story. This is overall a fast paced story and you’ll be finished with it before you realize it.
I loved that we got to know her mother as she digs into her past and discovers an international plot that happened decades ago pointing to her mother’s death not being an accident. And to top it off, it points to her biological father as being the potential murder.
This is definitely a roller coaster of a ride. You don’t know who to trust, where to turn, or what to feel. Be sure you have read the first 3 books before reading this one!

Been super excited for this book for so long and now it is finally here. I was not left disappointed, plenty of mystery and thrills and the romance oh my!! Some people may be wary of a love-triangle in a story but when done right like when Tiffany Snow writes them well you are torn between two hot and sexy men, both very different but equally as appealing.I loved the tension through the book as lots of secrets get exposed and feelings exposed. There is also some very funny moments our heroine China Mack is a unique individual but you cannot help falling for her ways and mannerisms and the addition of a character i was not fully expecting gave me a huge smile - and no i am not saying who it is. Go read this series and then read all the other books by this author i always know her work leaves me wanting more and i cannot wait to see what she writes next

Сначала я была немного разочарована, потому что схема любовного треугольника очень напоминала схему из предыдущей серии про Кэтлин Тернер. Я подумала, ну ладно, мне, в принципе, нравится такой троп. В итоге, в 4 книге, видимо чтобы не повторяться, автор лёгким движением руки изменила одного нашего героя до неузнаваемости и вот тебе оригинальный контент... мне показалось, что герой резко изменил свои намерения в отношении героини на ровном месте и все потому, что автору нужно было написать что-то отличное от предыдущей серии. Очень не��ачественно. Я глубоко разочарована. В книге также было очень много холодных убийств и, если раньше я любила криминальный саспенс, то сейчас я плохо себя чувствую после такого чтения. Никак не ожидала событий, которые были в конце книги - сыграли на моих чувствах, как на каком-то музыкальном инструменте. В общем, я расстроена, разочарована и вообще вкусы, кажется, поменялись
