I almost did not finish this book. Unfortunately, this story is plagued with poor pacing and bad writing.

The plot itself is a good idea however, it was poorly executed.

I listened to this on audiobook, and the narrator Merphy did an amazing job bringing this story to life and keeping you invested.

However the writing and pacing in this were awful.

The story is dark and twisted and keeps you in the edge of your seat, but the ending was disappointing for me.

I’m giving it a 3 because I was so trapped in the story the entire way through. However this could have been a great novel if the author would have taken their time and really made a complete story.

Poorly edited

Unfortunately I don’t think this book was edited at all. I reported a dozen or more simple typos on my Kindle and saw many more word choices that didn’t make sense.
The book was also a prime example of telling not showing. I think it could have been really good but I didn’t feel anything due to the way it was written. The characters’ choices didn’t make sense and the book was just painful to read.
I’m really sad I didn’t like this book as it came recommend and had so much potential, but it needed editing.

I picked this up for Merpy - love her channel and I'm down to support her. She did the best she could with this trash book.

The story was dull, and emotionless, the characters are named Scarlett and Wolf for christ sake. Overall very poorly written.

Well, I wanted a break from romances and I got it. That is the only positive I have to say about this awful book.
