did not like it

The author was CONFUSED.
My safest assumption for this major fuck up of a book is that she had multiple plots for this MMC and she couldn't choose one so she ended up combining them all ? That's the only plausible reason for such a major cluster fuck.

In the beginning everything was good. A troubled FMC who comes from an abusive relationship falling for the inmate she's treating. Amazing really. Then he betrays her ? Okay ..... Maybe he had a good reason for it right ? Nope he did not. He used her to get out of the prison. Did she forgive him too easily ? Yes ofcourse.

Then comes ani entirely different plot. This man is a Hitman in a nutshell who kills people for money. Just a hound that the rich bastards hire when they wanna kill someone. Nothing special but he's no longer the attractive inmate we wanted him to be.

The FMC was beaten up till she miscarried by men who were after the MMC and this guy ? He didn't really seem guilty when he found her and he's like "well hey there move in with me now" what the fuck ?

They weren't even in love. It was lust all along and they had to make this book more miserable by adding another pregnancy in the end ? And he's suddenly calling her his "sweetheart" .... Sweetheart who ? First confirm if you even like her ??

This overall just gave me the ICK.
Like I said earlier the author tried to mix

Over obsessed, But not enough in love MMC with a dark past that really didn't effect him coz he keeps shrugging when his dead parents are talked about but he acts like it made him the way he is, no ... He's just a basic psycho and the FMC ? Miserable she keeps saying she searches for love in the wrong man all the time and she does it again with the MMC ?

I really wanted to like this book because I do have a thing for inmate romance but he wasn't even an inmate for half the book like ???????
