[Elliott · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

IF you want to feel like a stupid incompetent cheating man then this is a great series to read.

I did like this book but it it is just so overblown where any woman defeats a man particularly Summers in any type of fight no matter how much of a disadvantage she is at the men are morons, even the captain is a useless idiot, when faced with the impossible beauty of this unattainable female.

How did this idiot ever become a captain?When faced with the magnificence of a female he turns into a complete idiot.

It is so ridiculous. Really shows men in a very very poor light and stupid man always loses to faster smarter better trained woman.

The woman is always smarter and wins every battle out thinks the men outplays them in chess, and of course this happens sometimes in real life but it does not happen in every single battle, we don't even allow similar sized women to fight men in UFC because it would not be a fair fight at this point and in this scenario the woman is often outweighed by a hundred pounds and easily defeat the man in any type of combat at any point in time from any position.

The men have drug problems the women never have any issues that they cause themselves any problems the women have were caused by a man or being put in an unfair position by men, every problem the man has he brought upon himself despite having overwhelming odds in his favor, dumb sch65ck, just can't hack it, getting prescription drugs from a doctor who's selling them illegally to the captain it's just crazy.

This author just refuses to show reality in that regard the rest of the book was good but the unreality of this Summer's defeating any man no matter how big an advantage , or weapons no matter how much the man cheats, she always comes out on top it is just ridiculous and it loses its sense of reality. Too much pandering to the ladies.

The general storyline has potential but overall the writing is pretty weak. Characters lack depth and reads more like a bad soap opera.

While I am enjoying the story
The story line dose tend to get lost in over explanation in some parts ….
