This book
wasn’t good, it wasn’t great, it wasn’t amazing, IT WAS PHENOMENAL!!!!! I was
glued to the pages, the story gripped me and didn’t let go, hours passed
while I was reading but I had no concept of time. It was that
good and I felt like I was discovering a new authour all over again. It has all
the things I love about a Kirsten Ashley book, but the voice is different and
fits the story, which, by the way, was super duper amazing. The main
characters, they had a familiar feeling to them, but the town and the
townsfolk, that was a completely different situation. Darker, edgier, deeper,
and so many secrets. People are nice but they have another side, not
necessarily mean, but definitely more than meets the eye. There are
underlying tones of assumptions and appearances that get catapulted out into
the atmosphere. Bad things happen, there isn’t any sugar-coating it, and the
good guys don’t always arrive in time. People you love betray you, and life
goes on, but in a different way. Revenge happens and there are unforeseen casualties
when it does. Relationships can’t always be mended, pain runs deep and scars,
and there are consequences to actions. This all binds
together such an enthralling story, and in the centre of that storm, two people
are figuring out how they fit together and can be together. Caught in the maelstrom
ares a family, already weathering storms of their own, trying to stay sane
and together. A woman hiding from her own personal evil enters with no idea
she is being swept up into another. A father trying to protect his family
while doing what he does best. An instant attraction, put on hold until
things settle down. Only, things never do, they only escalate. Every time you
think, okay now, another thing happens, and even when it seems all settled,
it really, really, isn’t. Cat and mouse, hunter and prey, a chess game that
never ends, this story had it all, and then, just a but more, and it was
phenomenal <3 |
