Quick(ish) Review
This is a combo review because a) read them back to back and b) tired and it's been a long week. I liked the setup to this 'verse but I didn't realize it's more of a spin-off to another series. As a result, there's vague references to that series that might help fill in the worldbuilding a bit more. In any event, I'm kind of middle of the road on these right now because I'm not sure what's going on. It feels slightly unfocused, in that I don't know much about the Big Bad in this series, and what I do know doesn't make alot of sense.
As for the individual romances, they're also very similar. Physically the heroines are opposite, but they both struggled to belong on Earth until they get to this new 'verse. Then suddenly they're exhibiting amazing, one of kind powers (of course), and they're hooking up with the leaders of two different planets, who also happen to be half-brothers.
I don't know, I think it has potential but it's like that pretty apartment with a great view that has one chair and a lamp for decoration. It's sparsely furnished. But I'm sold on the view, just and I'm waiting for the next delivery to see if it turns into a comfy place to hang out for a long time or if I'm just going to be staring out the window at what could have been.
Aaaaaannnd I'm done lol.
