B- review at best.
The problem I have with Maverick is that they are portraying Risa (the heroine) as helpless. Yes I understand she went through a terrible ordeal...one I couldn't begin to imagine...but they treat her as if she's a child and in a way she lets them. I'm all for vulnerability - even like it to be present in a good storyline - but it seems in this book LL has made the heroine too wimpy and the hero too alpha, which in my opinion is not a good combo. I'm about 30 pages from being done so I doubt anything will change my opinion. I love Micah (Maverick) and the background he has and his almost insane dedication to his mission and I love the heritage she gave him. I am TOTALLY done with the word "soul" being in every love scene!! and I wish she had made Risa to be a strong woman who came through an unbelievable event, instead of the "I'm so ugly....ooh poor me....you lied to me" persona she gave her.
