Blurb:

I have nowhere left to run…

I’ll never love another man the way I loved him.
To the world Erik was a prince. To me he was so much more.
My love. My heart. My dream come true.
The father of my child.
His love was so fierce, some days I swear I can still feel him with me.

Moving on is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do.
The music pouring out of my soul is the only way to ease the ache.
Nothing can replace the love of my life, but for my baby’s sake, I have to try.
With every tragic lyric, my fans scream louder, and I’m more alone.
I can’t outrun Erik’s ghost.
My heart beats only for him but he’s the one thing I can’t have.

Nowhere Left To Run is the second book in The Royal Trilogy by Kat Mizera. If you are new to this trilogy, it is vital you read Nowhere Left To Fall before diving into this novel. And because this is a continuation novel, I’m going to avoid diving too deep on what this novel is about. Instead I’ll just give my thoughts on what I loved and what I loathed about this novel.

I went into this book with an open mind and an open heart. After finishing the first book, I honestly had no idea what to think and what was going on in my head, all I did know was I was left feeling intrigued and wanting more. 

The Royal Trilogy has so much potential to be something great. But yet again, I’m left with my head in my hands and wondering what the fuck did I just read. I’m left feeling a tad bit disappointed but also I’m left feeling intrigued, yet again.

My problem isn’t with the characters. I love Casey and Erik’s tale so far. I love the angst that comes along with a rightful heir in hiding and a rockstar thinking the worst while raising his baby. There were times during these moments where I truly felt the tears building beneath the surface. 

My issue was with the storyline itself and the back to back angsty situations that surrounded Casey, herself. Holy hell, there was way to much going on in this novel. It was one angsty blow right after the other. Which in the end had me feeling a little disconnected from Casey’s character. What I needed was a bit of time in between all the angsty moments. Or subtract a few moments all together. Some situations didn’t need to be there. 

Another issue was this novel is extremely fast paced which in the end also made it really hard to interpret and find the connections in the new relationships that started to form. It was one heavy situation right after another. There was no time to actual feel for the characters and all they are going through. I couldn’t understand their motives behind their choices made throughout this novel.

However, When it comes to Erik and Casey, I’m willing to step it up and read the final book in the series. I need to know if these two end up together in the end. I need to feel more of the only emotional connection I have felt in this novel. I need more of Erik and Casey!!! Here’s to hoping they make it through the thick of things together.

Overall, Nowhere Left To Run was just an okay read. It needed a bit of a push to get it over the 3 star hump. If I’m being honest, the ending is the reason why I decided to rate this one a 3 star instead of the 2 I intended on rating it. I’m extremely curious to see what’s going to happen to Casey and Erik. I’m curious to see if they end up together in the end. I mean, what more can they possibly go through that they haven’t already been through. It should all be smooth sailing from here…… Maybe.

Peace Love and Happy Reading,
