I’m giving this one 4 stars even, and it would have been much less but the very very end came as a little surprise. There were several times through this one where I was so annoyed by the FMC. Like… how many times can you ignore red flags before I should consider you to be a red flag? Ugh!! But also, the fact that the author was able to elicit that type of frustration from me shows her skill. I do plan on reading more from her.

Brooke was told not to get close to the inmates at her new job as nurse practitioner at a prison but what her new boss doesn’t know is one of the prisoners are there because of her. 

This book was so amazing! Just when I thought I knew who the bad guy was a huge twist would happen and it’s change! So crazy! I didn’t know what story to believe or what was the true story! And I loved every second of it!
