Slow burn but man was it worth the read. The character development is so in depth and I can’t help but feel like I am right there in this story line feeling all the emotions everyone is going through. This book had me in tears from the emotions it evoked. The ending was fast and juicy. Can’t wait for book three!

Lilah story is so heartbreaking and I am so happy that she has finally found peace with a man like Ky that cares and loves her.
They learnt so much from each other and the storyline was defo better than the first book but I still can't get used to all the cursing, it completely ruins the book for me.
