"3.5 stars. I *was* really enjoying this book and was going to give it 4 stars until maybe the 250-300 page mark and things just took a turn for the worse. First the pros: the book was very fast paced and over all I didn’t feel like it was a chore to read. It held my attention and (most of the time) the writing was pretty good! Now for the cons: (SPOILERS) Maybe it was just me but it was extremely hard to keep up with the family tree and who everyone was?? Now the placement of the s*x scenes were outrageous!! (MAYJOR SPOILER!!) Because why did they get down jiffy with it after she had found out HIS WHOLE FAMILY WAS DEAD AND HE HAD NO CLUE THIS WHOLE TIME! After she knew that the reason he was gone was because he was trying to secure passage for them… It just gave me the biggest ick along with when they had s*x right after he had found out that she was keeping that information from him??! I can’t even make this up… And finally (the main reason this book wasn’t going to be above 4 stars in the first place) the fighting scenes were extremely hard to follow. He is a *Gladiator* and there is a hell of a lot of fighting in this book. If fighting is going to be such a main component I would think you would make sure the scenes were understandable but I guess not. "
