Book Review: A Monsoon Rising

Monsoon Rising was a 50-50 for me. I’m quite proud that I was able to finish it despite my general boredom reading through pages and pages of the Alaric and Talasyn constant-tug-of-war. I will tell you that I am a sucker for romance but I’d pick up a romance book if I am in the mood to read one.
