i gotta be honest, from the blurb i thought lyla was going to fall for the criminal but i'm glad i was wrong. anyways okay wow this one's probably my second favorite plot wise because that twist!! did i know something would happen since devney perry has the same plot pattern for every book? yes. did i devour it anyway? also yes. the mystery genre made this one similar to indigo ridge, but this hits a little harder. the romance wasn't really dominant and it was kinda insta-lovey. lyla and vance's relationship could have more time for development instead of just, uh, having sex. plus i noticed another repetitive thing in the series: the not-Eden characters have families that are the opposite of the Edens—either dead, cut off, abandoned... we need a more diverse character background please! overall it was an enjoyable read and i still love the characters, vance just fits my bearded fictional man who loves nature type.
