I really really loved it. At first it was kind of hard to get into when all the bad things happens but after that I couldn’t put it down

Really struggled with some of the triggers in this book. Glad some people got what was coming to them. Felt the last 5 chapters was very sex fueled that wasn't needed and had no addition to the plot but was good nonetheless. Will definitely buy the physical copies as the 1st book is my favourite. You can find an extra chapter on the authors website!

People may call me crazy for saying that I liked this book, but genuinely I did. Though the book is  traumatic and had EXTREMELY triggering events I couldn’t put it down. Some of the parts were really hard to read but I needed to find out if Addie was okay and if Zade would find her. I think that what makes this book so good is the constant tension of “what is going to happen next.” Constantly wondering what will happen. You grow very closely to Addie in the beginning of the book and really see her growth. She becomes a survivor. She is a survivor. She’s constantly fighting. And you want to fight for her too. Though the traumatic events she endures have negatively changed her life she learns how to push through life because she is a fighter. Also you get to see the a side of her develop that is very similar to Zade, as well as watch their relationship grow too.

I enjoyed the first half of the book since it continues from the previous book. It was a little heavy but kept the story interesting. The second half felt…anticlimactic. It was good but fell a little flat. And the spice was too rough for me compared to the first book. But Zade was still daddy vibes!
