If you saw my review for book 1 you will recall I said I didn\u2019t think it as all THAT dark.&nbsp; Well that is NOT the case for book 2.&nbsp; Book 1 is a cupcake with a scoop of ice cream on a summers day in comparison to book 2.&nbsp; It is a throat punch from beginning to end.&nbsp; The anxiety I had for the beginning part of the book is not anything I expected to have\/deal with.<\/p>\n<p>Book 2 is split into 2 parts and I have to say\u2026.BRAVO,&nbsp; I loved the way the book was written.&nbsp; Because the book is in 2 parts my review will also be split in to 2 parts.<\/p>\n<p>Part 1 is Not for the weak of heart.&nbsp; It is not for someone who has any issues with triggers because this part of the story is a landmine of triggers. The rape, sexual assaults, abuse, etc are OFF The CHARTS!!&nbsp; SO if you take this book on, know you will be uncomfortable and you will be horrified.&nbsp; You will also be cheering as people are murdered and again, I questioned my mental health with this book.&nbsp; The author did an amazing job making me feel broken and destroyed and THEN we enter part 2.<\/p>\n<p>Part 2 is much \u201ceasier\u201d but its still brutal.&nbsp; We are seeing Adeline deal with the trauma she endured but we are also seeing Adeline grow.&nbsp; She is not the same woman and I gotta say, she is an even better match for Zade now then before.&nbsp; Adeline\u2019s ARC over the 2 books was amazing.&nbsp; She goes from a carefree woman to a woman on a mission of revenge.<\/p>\n<p>Zade\u2026omg can I say I fell even more in love with him.&nbsp; He is not a good man.&nbsp; He is the best Antihero I have ever read.&nbsp; He is not the guy you should be rooting for and yet when he makes Adeline mac n cheese wearing an apron for dinner\u2026..I was melting.&nbsp; Yes melting!!!&nbsp; Zade teaches his mouse a lot but vengeance and bloodletting are the biggest lessons along with loving your person with your entire being.<\/p>\n<p>GAH this book ruined me in all the best ways possible.<\/p>\n<p>Now I hear Sibbie is getting a book. SHUT UP and take my money!!&nbsp; I need more of that crazy ass Bish and her henchmen\u2026but who is Craven???<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25376 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>H.
