Holy roller coaster of a ride! Not at one point in the book is there a dull moment and Sophia will have you wondering what she will do next. One instant she is this sweet and innocent girl and the next almost like the devil being violent, sexual and dark. Will you let the dark side consume you?

Sophia is a very different kind of novel.
Sophia, the main character, is a beautiful and privileged concert cellist who has everything going for her, but whose life spirals dramatically out of control after the death of her boyfriend, Spencer. At first it seems that she is suffering from post-traumatic stress, and she seems hell bent on a path of self destruction. She cannot stop herself from sliding down a slippery slope into increasingly more dark and sinister places, destroying her family and career in the process.
All the while the reader wonders what the hell is going on with her and if there's any chance she can be saved .....then comes the surprising twist!
The book is full of drama and some incredible descriptions...almost poetic at times.
A great read!!

Bravo! Bravo!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It's a bit different from what I usually read, but I'm so glad I read it. The story was mesmerising.
