You think the first book is good, just wait until you read this one. This story is SOOOOO much more than just spice. The spice from the first book is what gets you attached to the characters so your heart can be ripped out in the second one. The way I stayed up reading this book until 2 in the morning isn't something I've done in ages. It has me absolutely hooked and I couldn't put it down. When Zade finds Addie in that train car... I literally started SOBBING from the build up and release of emotions this whole book up until then caused. Human trafficking is such a hard topic to cover and it think HD did a fantastic job. I wish I had a million more books with Zade and Addie. So sad there won't be more to read with them, but I have the rest of HDs books to sink my teeth into and I can't wait.
