The Jackal by J.R. Ward

1.0

Y’all. This book has me dead. I didn’t think I’d love it, but I thought it’d at least be a fun read. I mean, sexy prison vampires? Why not?

The pace was slow, except the sex scenes were fast and kind of hilarious. The first time it was like they both came as soon as he touched her and it made me giggle and picture awkward teenage vampires.

The amount of times they said “male” or “gentle male” or “female” or “his female” or “young” was excessive. Was there a bet on how many times this could be used?

Also, the premise was quarter cocked at best - who thinks you can just walk into a prison and take someone out?

And to top it all off, they essentially skipped into the sunset and got ice cream together at the end. I’m not sure if they literally skipped, but it was literally sunset and they got ice cream.

WHAT DID I READ?!?
