    I’ve loved these books and Gin since book one so thanks for that. This latest book was really emotional and I just felt gutted at the end. What makes me even more sad though is all the Owen hate that I’m seeing in various forums and sites like Goodreads. 🙁

    I feel let down by Owen too, I must confess. I didn’t think that there was anything that could ever shake his love for Gin. I’ve gone back to re-read the happier Gin/Owen moments from previous books in hopes that it would make me feel better but it only made me sadder. He was always her rock, her place of refuge, so to see him turn his back and walk away from her was devastating to read. *sigh* I still hope for the best for the two of them but it feels like Owen will have to really come up big in some way in order to make up for this and I’m not sure that he ever really can. How can Gin ever fully trust him with her heart again when her biggest fear all along has been being abandoned and being seen as not worth being loved, not being chosen? All the baggage and hurt that Donovan inflicted on Gin and it seemed like Owen had helped her heal – only for him to turn around and inflict the same kind of pain, only a thousand times worse. I guess I’m not sure that I can ever forgive Owen, even if Gin does, and that breaks my heart. Like I said, I love Gin so I’m along for whatever ride you have planned but it’s with a very heavy heart now.

    I’d love a short story about this from Owen’s POV, something, *anything*, to give us an idea of what is going on his head. That *might* help. Anyway, sorry for my venting. I initially just intended to make a brief comment but the rest just spilled out. 🙁

      I appreciate your comments and understand your concerns. I realized when I was writing the book that what happens in WIDOW’S WEB might upset people, but this was part of Gin’s story that I wanted to tell, and I thought it was necessary for certain events to happen like they did. I can’t really say too much about future books without giving out spoilers, but I do have a plan for Gin and Owen too.

      Anyway, I hope that you will continue reading the series, but I understand if you don’t.

      I’m hoping to write something from Owen’s POV, but I’m so busy writing the books and my Mythos Academy series that it’s hard to find the time. We’ll see what happens.
