Loved it!

This would've been a 5 stars if the epilogue had been different. I was hoping for a years later timeskip instead of a week later one.

I was not a fan of the beginning. The only thing that kept me going was my love for thrillers taking place in secluded locations. I didn't like the tension between Laney and Kit until they actually started talking about what happened.

The spirit of the island was a damn interesting twist that I loved a lot! I just wish the epilogue had been a years later one so we can see how Laney handled living trapped on the island with the spirit and how her loved ones lives were affected by her oath.
