WOW!
Yes, this a prequel. But, please read this after books 1-3!
There are some profound plot twists that will be unnoticeable if you are unaware of the rest of the story. In fact, it would only seem to be a sad, depressing story, nothing more. Reading it as book 4, it's still a true Shakespearian tragedy for them all: Katherine, Zachariah, and Adam. But knowing the truth of those early days changes everything.
This is as well written as the series.

The writing is fluid and the words are well-chosen. The characters and the circumstances carry you along without any awkward lapses, and they are interesting, fascinating, sexy, fun, spontaneous, stunning, steamy, and entertaining.

Enjoyed this entire series!
Definitely, YA all fade to black. But I kinda needed that. Sometimes you just need to enjoy the story itself. And I thoroughly did!
Found out about Adam and his enemy that maybe isn't!
