“You were never meant to be his, my sweet doe.” My voice is soft, and the words come out like a caress. “You were always meant to be mine.”

OKAYYYY, WE ARE BACK IN BUSINESS FOLKS!! Slaying for Sloan was actually better than Carving for Cara and Little Nightmare combined, who would've thought.

A large part of that is definitely due to Asher, who was a really great love interest, he knew how to treat Sloan right / the way she wanted to be treated and made sure she would always be safe (unlike Alex, ahem).

I had a feeling it would end the way it did, for maximum cliffhanger effect, and I'm not mad about it. Even though the next book isn't due till December...but I'll absolutely be reading it when it drops.

Also, I like how it feels like a standalone, despite being set in the same world as Cara's story, as they're best friends etc. You truly don't need to have to read those books to enjoy this one.
