My Review

 

This was the kind of book that got your attention in the first couple of lines, and kept you guessing until the end. It took me a while to understand what was happening, but I mean that in a good way, because the suspense was riveting. The writing was brilliant, and the characters, wow. Alex is a kick ass heroine with a vulnerable side, and Slade, her sexy saviour, was everything you want from a hero. The tension sizzles right from their first meeting, and it will keep you turning page after page until the end!
