This is the fifth part of the story and is not a standalone. The books must be read in order. Things move at a fast pace. Ryder, Tanya and Myles navigate the knowledge of Myles being Ryder's son. Tanya finds an ally. Ryder takes steps to protect his family. The book ends with a cliffhanger.
I received an ARC of the book and I am leaving my thoughts without influence from the publisher or author.

The evil twists and turns are on the way now. The goodness of the good characters will battle through. The mystery is getting stronger. I enjoyed this book from start to finish.
I thought this was a good book, even though Tanya is starting to irritate me. I can't wait to see how this series ends. Received an ARC and this is my voluntary review.
