What a page turner! I haven't read many books that are from the antagonist point of view so this one was interesting from the start. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars was the repetition reading from Laura's POV, then Ryan's on some chapters. I didn't feel that having repetition in the dialogue added much to the story and made me want to skim past some parts. This was a pretty solid read otherwise, I enjoyed how all my questions wrapped up nicely by the end and it all made sense. I was going to rate it less because I felt some details weren't necessary or felt confusing but they were just foreshadowing. It all ended up tying together by the end.
