The first book was so very good. Plot kept me interested and left me wanting more of the story. The second book has a good story but the author has put in confusing “political correctness“ and turned it into a tawdry smut novel that has grossly descriptive unnecessary sex scenes. I would read those novels if I wanted to. I wanted adventure and danger mixed with intrigue. It takes away from the two main characters love and how it comes across in the book as lust instead of undying love.
