Beware of the triggers. Both books are extremely dark, but this one is worse. 

This is the second book to this duet story (see Haunting Adeline) and it was rough. I cried a few times during this story. It’s extremely graphic and twisted.  

Picture how people will gather or rubber neck to look at a car accident to see the damage (curiosity killed the cat) but for this book, the accident would involve multiple totaled cars that are on fire and the people who were in the cars are trapped and cannot escape.  

Although this book was severely disturbing, I did enjoy the story.  The love story between the two MC is dark and twisted but passionate.  It’s a world riddled with danger and despair, and a monster like Zade to hunt down anyone who harmed his little mouse.

First half of the book is quite good. The second half drags.

Despite how extremely dark this book is, it holds a place in my heart. The resilience Addie has and the portrayal of PTSD brought up emotions from my own past I wasn’t quite aware I was ready to face head on yet. A very healing read for me, which is probably not what I or anyone else would expect. Either way, I loved this book, and it’s getting a reread at some point so I can annotate the heck out of it.
I also would’ve rated 5 stars but I felt the conclusion was rushed.

The nightmares, memories, and depression from Adeline's time kidnapped were worse to me than reading how she survived it.

read trigger warnings at the start of this book !!

the author was not lying when she said this book is significantly darker than the first. honestly, i had to skip chapters 10-22 (hence my rating of the book) because of that fact. i also had to save myself and look up spoilers for my own sanity. my personal opinion, it gets so much better after chapter 23.
