Juniper Unraveling by Julie Belfield, Keri Lake
5.0

Full Review posted at Book Lovin' Mamas

Keri Lake did a fantastic job keeping me on the edge of my seat with this book, especially with all the twists and turns in it. I do not want to spoil anything, but be prepared ahead of time that this book is not for the faint of heart. There is a lot of violence and challenging moments in this book. The characters are not sweet and adorable, but fighters and survivors. One of the characters has been made to kill, and the other has been made to survive in a cruel world. The villains in the story are hard to forget, especially when the monsters are not the Ragers.

I may end up with nightmares after reading this book, but at least I can say this story has a HEA. (A very disturbed and unforgettable HEA.) Yes, there are some very steamy moments in this book, even with all the crazy moments in a dystopian world, which is why I rated it five stars for the steaminess rating. Keri Lake can write some steamy and action-packed scenes, which is why she’s an auto-buy author.
