H.D Carlton is the queen of dark romance. This book was short and fast paced but it still felt complete. Cage was classic morally gray with a little golden retriever thrown in while Molly was dark and twisty but slightly hopeful. The plot was well developed and I loved the little references to the cat and mouse duet.

I didn’t really have any expectations going into it. I loved Haunting Adeline, wasn’t a fan of Hunting Adeline or Does It Hurt? But, I wanted to give it a shot. 

Cage appeared back in her life too conveniently. I personally think she should’ve left Layla alone because that’s a lot of trauma. Also, is she going to stop the pig feeding stuff if Layla hangs out more?

And the whole jump to Zade at the end was a cheap, fast ending. It didn’t give me any closure or want to read the next book.

What the heck did I just read?! 😱 I didn’t read the other books but I most definitely will… eventually. Story line was good - past trauma sets her in a place where she can seek revenge for others who didn’t make it out. Crazy? Maybe, but soothing for some especially those who have experienced that type of trauma especially from people close to you. 

Also the strong love she had for her sister; realizing she’d have a better life without her was disheartening but understandable because she had a lot of demons of her own. 

4.5 stars only because I was expecting it to be a cliff hanger.
