![]() Once I got into the story, I just had to know what would happen next in this twisted tale and I was unable to put the book down. Still, this author has a very easy flowing writing style and while I wasn't always a fan of the plot and character development, the author most definitely kept me hooked with her writing. I think if the characters would have spent more time establishing an actual, deeper connection, I would have been able to understand them better and I could have been more invested in their story. Aside from their obvious sexual chemistry and fierce attraction to each other, they didn't seem to share much of an emotional bond. The other problem I had with the story was that I didn't fully connect with the characters and I didn't really 'get' their connection. ![]() "Too much of me still hated her.but too much of me still wanted her. Both main characters's reasonings and ways of justifying what they did came a bit across as farfetched and unrealistic which is the main reason why I didn't enjoy this book as much.

Still, she's determined to keep that reason to herself and make him think she lied just out of spite, which in my opinion wasn't a very smart thing to do. What Rafe doesn't know though, is that Alex had a very good reason to lie and falsely accuse him of a crime he didn't commit.

Torrent by author Gemma James is one of those books that left me thinking 'what the hell did I just read!?'. I wish I would have felt an earlier connection to the characters, but I’m hoping since I already ‘know’ them, that won’t be an issue with the second book- which I’m very much looking forward to reading! If you like damaged heroes like me and you don’t mind a bit of a mind fuck, I would recommend Torrent. It was original and the writing was awesome. It was a wild and torturous ride and had a crazy cliffhanger. If you’re looking for dark and hardcore, this is the book for you. I’m anxious to see how things will be between them in the second book now that he has some of the truth. It was intense, but hearing how the last eight years had been for him, and he had absolutely no answers… it was what it was. Some of the things Rafe did to Alex were dangerous and extreme, but part of me didn’t blame Rafe for doing them. He was violent and brooding, but it was obvious he was in pain and vulnerable after all that had happened to him. ![]() Most of the book I couldn’t decide if I loved him or hated him. He needs to know, and he’ll use any means necessary to get the truth from Alex.Īlex was weak in so many ways, but to endure what she did, not only with Rafe, but over the years- it showed her strength.

I’m pretty sure that was my first thought after reading Torrent. ![]()
