Editors. Just. Get some, editors. There were so many terribly written sentences, horrible similes and metaphors, and cringe-worthy moments of dialogue that I had to highlight all of them just to make myself feel as though I wasn’t as crazy as fucking Sibby. Since I powered through book one, I felt duty-bound to read this one and finish the duology but god it was a Herculean effort. The plot of the story is still intriguing, although Adeline’s captivity goes on for a bit longer than I feel is truly necessary. I do love the characters, especially Jay and Sibby. Also, there are a few very sexy one-liners during the sex scenes but even those were made less intriguing and spice-filled because of the multitude of errors throughout.

Just wow! When I finished this duet, I was so sad it was over. And, I was so stunned that I fell in love with a stalker. Definitely buckle up for a WILD freaking ride if you pick up this duet.

okay so. there’s a hell of a lot i could say about this book, and there r deffo mixed reviews on it. i personally loved it, it was dark at times for sure but i read so quickly that honestly i basically skip through it all. if you’re easily effected by books, this might not be the best choice. but, it is an amazing book. some reviews say it was romancing SA, which i think is true (although it wasn’t all of the time), but other than that the book, storyline and author are amazing. but yeah if you get upset easily, or were upset by the first book, you’re most probably going to be by this one. i wasn’t upset to the point where i was crying, but obviously those bits weren’t the most pleasant to read/imagine. however, i think this book is amazing, i hate books that bore me in the first 20 pages, and this book… certainly did not! anyway i’ve blabbered enough and basically it’s a great great great book but can be upsetting
