I started reading this book a long time ago, but then life happened and it got lost somewhere among other things... and I regret it bad!
The writing isn't perfect (it feels a bit amateurish at times - I vividly remember one scene where I was counting how many more hands Kai could have) but let's not forget that this is Lauren Roberts' first book.
I love this story: I love the setting, I love the twisted games, I love Kai and Paedyn, and I love the undeniable love they have for each other. I hate Kitt! And I hated him since the beginning of the story.
But that ending... that ending will be the death of me!
