“but they’re looking for a monster.
not a girl who loves red 🍎🩸⛏️’
not a girl who is falling in love ❤️’
not a girl who died ten years ago 🍎”

okay. that ending 🫠🤯’ blew me away. i stayed up to about 2;22AM finishing this book. i was leaning towards a 3.75 ⭐️’ only because logan was making me so mad throughout the 2nd book.  he was too overbearing, overwhelming at first &’ i felt for lana but i guess it was for a reason.
 Reading lana’s 🍎’  pov. she has came to paint the town red to those who done her wrong🍎🩸’. — she’s definitely kick ass, but also a confused lover. i feel for her! 
book 1&2 is a must read. if you like revenge, killing, torture. this book is for you. 
lana is after one mission until literally she got “side track.” i’m ready for book 3.

"[Her] scars don’t run as deep or painful as mine. One man ruined her. So many more took a piece of me.
But the pain is just the same. Just as scary. Just as unrelenting."

Oh my goodness! The cliffhangers really get the story moving. All the flashbacks are so graphic and tragic. It is still not clear why Kyle and the group did what they did, but the pieces are coming together. I feel invested, like one of the FBI agents on the case. As much as it is great to see Lana and Logan succeed in their respective area, I already feel sad and suspense as to what will happen to their relationship once Lana work comes to light. She deserves better than this!! She is  a hurt person seeking the justice never served to her assailant.
