Review: King (Las Vegas Bad Boys #2) by Frankie Love

Synopsis

Landon 

My life is as good as it bloody gets. I may be an Englishman, but I'm living the American dream. 

In Vegas I f*ck who I want, when I want, and how I want. 

Unfortunately, my father needs to pass on the family business and doesn't think sleeping around gives me the credentials I need. 

I've got one week to convince him and the rest of my old school, English family that I've changed my wild ways and settled down with a "proper" girl. 

The problem? 

Claire's hiding something. Which seriously complicates things. She's supposed to help me get what I want ... but my fake fiancé might just ruin it all. 

Claire 

Meeting Landon could be the best thing that's ever happened to me ... or the worst. 

He's the only man I've considered sleeping with in years ... which says a helluva lot. Mostly that I'm horny as heck, but also that Landon makes me feel sexy ... beautiful ... wanted. Things I never thought I'd feel. 

Not to mention he's richer than God. Or will be if I can help him for just one week, convincing his family that we're in love and not just scheming to help him inherit the family business. 

If the plan works, he'll pay me a quarter of a million dollars. 

But if he finds out who I really am, he'll call off our deal. 

And I can't let that happen. Not just because I desperately need the money ... but because the time I spend with him makes me believe that true love might be real after all. 

But Landon is a player. And I can't bear to have my heart broken. 

So I'm all in with the plan ... but terrified that I'm about to make the biggest mistake of my life ... falling in love with a man who can't be trusted.

Review

King by Frankie Love

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I don't know how many stars to even give this one so I'm going to stick to 3

I finished the first book in the Las Vegas Bad Boys series and after reading the snippet of this book I had to carry on.

Overall I'm not saying it was a bad book I enjoyed it but there was alot that was missing for me. I read reviews both of the first book and this one about how this one was much better. I'm not sure why maybe the mood i was in the insta love just worked and this one there was annoying parts and it just feels unfinished I wanted so much more from the book and then i was cheking the pages thinking no..it cant end so soon there is so much to explore here. If there is a continuation and I'm just here bitching about this forgive me i guess? But i'm under the impression these are all standalones

Claire annoyed me with all the secretive parts and lying i guess. She had so many opportunities to tell Landon and it felt like one thing after another.Its like one lie leads to so many more and I was stressed out for her and was just getting so annoyed the more she dragged it on. But my main annoyance was that there was no slow build up between Claires daughter and Landon. I wanted to see him being a father figure, and to see him in that light. It just didnt feel like in the end there was a proper family feel. I needed there to have been more dialogue between the two. But it mainly focused on Landon and Claire even thought the big secret had such a focus but just not in the right way.

I enjoyed Landon slowly changing throughout the book, taking responsibility and being the man his parents knew he could be. How Claires support and love makes him want to be and do more. To be a better man which is endearing.

My Review

4 Stars!!

The V Girl is Mya Robart's debut novel and I think she did a very good job on it.It is set in post-apocalyptic North America, a time where sexual abuse, violence and death is a norm. The topics and parts of this book had darkness to it yet it didn't overpower the story. Its a dark subject but it didn't make the book a sort of depressing, gloomy book that it could have been. There were a lot of elements to it with some twists I wasn't expecting.

Lila is a character that has to grow up fast and she becomes head of the family. She is the one everyone relies on and looks up to. With a sick brother and a younger sister to protect from anyone who may try to rape her.She is called V girl since she is a virgin and it is something she wants to get rid of. She wants to lose her virginity with her consent because if or when she gets recruited the soldiers will definitely rape her and take it by force.In her haste to get rid of it she becomes desperate. She decides to ask her friend Rey who she has known forever and trusts.Things don't go to plan when Aleksey Fürst enters the scene.

“You usually can’t recall all the people you’ve shared laughs with. But you rarely forget the people you’ve shared your tears with.”

First of all Lila at points really annoyed me with her desperation to get rid of her virginity like I understood why but she made silly rash decisions that left her in awkward situations. They could have all been avoided and she did do some immature things. I know she is young and I guess that's on me since I usually read adult novels due to the maturity factor.I felt like she jumped to conclusions without thinking things through.

Because I loved Aleksey, I'm sorry but Rey had to be on my shit list. I don't think I've ever liked two guys in a book where they both like the heroine. I love one of them and have to hate the other, I just can't help it. I know Rey wasn't a bad guy but no, just no. I stacked everything against him when I fell for Aleksey. This isn't a love triangle but at times felt like it but not to the point where it put me off since I can't stand love triangles.

I would have loved some chapters to be in Aleksey's point of view since he was quite a mysterious character and I wanted to know more about him. I didn't want this book to end nearing the end I felt a little panicky since I felt like there was quite a lot left, that needed to be added yet there were so little pages left. Will we get more? I felt like it was left quite unfinished like there may be more in store.I felt like the deflowering bit was quite stretched out, like I just wanted it done with and to see their relationship slowly building and becoming stronger.

Mya Robarts..Can we have little Aleskey babies? That would be so awesome! I'd love a novella or something showing them both in the future.There were a few characters I wanted t know more about, what happened to them and so on like Rey's brother and Tristan!

Looking forward to more from this author :)

My Review

5 stars!!

I feel like the more poetry I read the more I fall in love with words and how they have a way of bringing so much emotion. A few words can have an impact and make you feel so much. If anyone has any recommendations, comment or message me. I'm all for exploring!

'how is it so easy for you

to be kind to people he asked

milk and honey dripped

from my lips as i answered

cause people have not

been kind to me'

I realised that I have a preference to deep dark poetry. Dark thoughts and experiences. I enjoy reading about people's experiences, it's like all this anger, sadness and pain being scratched onto the pages.Its a part of the author and I can't get enough of that.

'neither of us is happy

but neither of us wants t leave

so we keep breaking one another

and calling it love'

Rupi Kaur just has a way with words, I can't even explain it.She inspires me to write.Even though I am no poet but her poetry makes me want to give it a shot.It's a whole different experience when you read something and you can totally relate and you feel like the words are your words that you never knew how to express.This is one I would definitely want on my shelf because I don't this is the last time I will read it.

'I can't tell if my mother is

terrified or in love with my

father it all looks the same'

I pretty much highlighted the whole book. I just couldn't stop myself!

Just beautiful and I can't wait for more by this author.

My Review

5 Stars!

your soul stained my shoulders.

my whole life smells like you.

this will take time.

undoing you from my blood.

-the works

The mere fact that most of this book is highlighted says everything. I saw a quote on Instagram and say Nayyirah Waheed's name upon it, I'm so thankful I saw it and it led me to discover her words.Simple yet powerful words that left me feeling so much. There is this rumble of restrained anger behind some words where in others it isn't held back. There is hurt pain, accepting, healing and so much more. It was like these words had been beaten down by the world yet stood up straight and finally fighting back when they realised they were more than the boxes the world put them in.

you.

not wanting me.

was

the beginning of me

wanting myself.

thank you

-the hurt

I have always enjoyed poetry, especially brutal poetry, the harsh side of life and when people with rough lives put all their passion, anger, raw energy into words and lay them out for the world. It's really something personal and very brave to allow people to read a part of their soul.I think its time to pick up more poetry book since they seem to leave me so inspired.

as a child

there was either

books

or 

pain.

I chose books.

Review: The Air He Breathes (Elements #1) by Brittainy C. Cherry

Synopsis

I was warned about Tristan Cole.
“Stay away from him,” people said.
“He’s cruel.”
“He’s cold.”
“He’s damaged.”

It’s easy to judge a man because of his past. To look at Tristan and see a monster.

But I couldn’t do that. I had to accept the wreckage that lived inside of him because it also lived inside of me.

We were both empty.
We were both looking for something else. Something more.
We both wanted to put together the shattered pieces of our yesterdays.

Then perhaps we could finally remember how to breathe.

My Review

4.5 Beautiful Stars!

I loved this book, it's just what I needed after reading some meh, okay ish books that really didn't do it for me.I need to firstly mention that I adore this authors books and writing, it's just amazing! You just don't expect the things that happen to happen and I have been meaning to review a book of hers. Every time something happens and I totally forget or I'm so busy I don't get a chance but this time I said to myself, as soon as you finish you will review this book even if its a short review so here it goes ;)

'People in town called him an asshole, and I could see why. He wasn’t nice, he wasn’t stable, and he was broken in all of the wrong and right places.'

I heard this was an emotional read and a lot of people had written in places they cried and I have got to agree it did have the heavy emotional bits that ripped you apart but there was so much more, it was funny, sweet, raw and beautiful.The author did a brilliant job and I vow to never put off any more of Brittainy C. Cherry's book that I download!

"No soulmate leaves the world alone; they always take a piece f their other half long with them."

This is a book about two people who have gone through a hard time and lost loved ones, it changes people. It can turn some into monsters, it can cause you to become closed off and shut down or it can change you for the better. Death changes people, you never come out the same. But you have to always remember that everything happens for a reason.

"Tristan?"

"Yes?"

"Kiss Me?"

I don't want to go into detail about it because I think people need to stop reading synopsis and just kind of jump into books and find out for themselves. Experience it without reading what its about or knowing exactly what you will be stepping into. This book does have twists you don't see coming and basically I want more. The main characters were great even supporting characters I want Faye to have her own story. Tristan and Faye's shit burning seen was frikin hilarious!

'During the light days, we held each other close.During the dark days, we held each other closer.'

The one thing that made me mad was near the end half. Tristan you do not do that, that was messed up. I understood why he went and why he needed to but no communication? So abruptly without calmly thinking things through and I get it things where pretty crazy but being in Lizzie's position I don't know if I could be that forgiving but other than that it was awesome and I'm looking forward for more!!

Review: Worth It (Forbidden Men, #6) by Linda Kage

Synopsis

I fell in love once.

It was amazing. She was amazing. Life was amazing.

I lived for each time I could see her, and nothing else mattered, not that our families were enemies, our time together was forbidden, or we had to meet in secret.

Our love could conquer all.

Until it didn't.

So I was ripped away from the love of my life and shoved into hell, forced to continue without her.

It shattered me, broke the best parts of me, left me permanently damaged.

Or so I thought.

Years later, I swear history’s trying to repeat itself because she’s back in my life, and I’m just as drawn to her as I was before. But I'm older and wiser now, and I know she should stay away from a worthless ex-con like me.

So, I will not let her in. I absolutely refuse to hurt her. I will keep her away.

Then again, sometimes risking your greatest fear to get to a smile makes everything worth it, and besides, I’m not sure I can resist her, anyway.

This is the story of how Felicity Bainbridge changed my life forever, starting one summer day long ago after I was forced to change a dirty diaper...

My Review

4 Stars!!

“No matter what happens tonight, don’t ever change, okay? You are fun and sweet and amazing just the way you are. You make the world a better place because you always find the bright side. You are the bright side. And if I’m ever going to make it through this, I need to know you’re out there, still glowing and making the world bright.”

Linda Kage, woman you really know how to write an awesome book that keeps me intrigued from start to finish. And that little part at the end about Asher? What the hell are you trying to do to me? I need the next book right now!! I hate waiting omg you are going to kill me.There is no slow boring parts, every part flows and makes you want more. I didn't want it to end and yet I couldn't stop reading.

When I found out at the end of Ten's book that the next book was about some new person called Knox I was a bit like eh? Who? Why do we need a new addition I love the forbidden crew. I felt like he may not fit in or that it wouldn't be as good as the rest but oh how wrong I was. He fit right in as well as Felicity.

'She wasn’t like anyone I’d ever met… She didn’t treat me like a nobody. In fact, I don’t think anyone had ever treated me the way Felicity treated me, or looked at me the way she looked at me. Like I was something special. Like I was someone.'

I don't usually like a book that goes back and forth from past to present but again LK knows how to do it because it so worked here.I loved how cute and adorable the past was,watching the the sweet relationship bloom when Felicity and Knox are kids and then having the rough, edgy matured version of them in the present.At times I got so stuck into one section either past or present and I just wanted it to carry on yet it all made sense in the end.Every piece is slowly unraveled, the only thing I wanted more on was more aspects of Knox's life in jail or a little flashback to a time in prison. Or him gradually getting better after the trauma he faced. I also wanted more of Knox with Pick's babies because why not!

My heart broke for Knox, everything he lost. And Bentley aww damn I did not expect that and everything else that happened. It was like one blow after another, there is only so much a person can take before they start to crack.

Both Felicity and Knox had families who didn't really care about them. Felicity was usually left to do whatever unless she was needed. Knox lived in a big family with not enough money and had to make ends meet as well with a drunk father and a mother that was hardly present. One rich, one poor, both families lacking love. Two kids who don't belong finding each other in the woods. A chance meeting that changes everything.

“We’ve never really been apart. From the moment you bumped into me in those woods, we’ve belonged to each other … I don’t care if we’ve grown up. We’re still Knox and City at the core, and we’ll always love each other. You know why?” I leaned in to whisper … “Because we don’t know how to stop.”

Review: A Perfect Ten (Forbidden Men, #5) by Linda Kage

Synopsis

Let your hair down, Caroline, they said. It'll be fun, they said. 

I know I've closed myself off in a major way over the past year, ever since “the incident” where I messed up my life completely. It's past time I try to live again or just give up altogether. But this is quite possibly the craziest thing I've ever done. In a last ditch effort to invigorate myself, I'm standing outside Oren Tenning's bedroom, I just peeled off the sexiest pair of underwear I own, and my hand is already raised to knock. My brother would disown me for doing anything with his best friend, and he'd probably kill Oren. But if I play my cards right, no one will ever know about this. Not even Ten. 

Maybe after tonight, I’ll finally get over this stupid, irrational crush I hate having on the biggest jerk I’ve ever met. Or maybe I’ll just end up falling for him even harder. Maybe I’ll discover there’s so much more to my crude, carefree hunk than meets the eye

My Review

5 Perfect Stars!!

"You're seriously breaking all my rules.You know that right?"

Her smile just grew.

"I'm beginning to get a clue"

Linda Kage continues to blow me away.As soon as I start any book of hers I just can't stop until I have finished it.So yeah all yesterday I was sneaking around trying to get a little extra reading in because I needed more, I just couldn't put it down and then wait this is the worst part..it ended! How fukin dare it end when I'm not done with it yet? I wanted it to carry on for at least 300 pages more or forever..that works too.

I was already a Caroline fan since I met her in Quinn's book, I'm not sure if she is in any other book I started the series from Be my hero and need to read the previous two books. And Ten was always a joker, at times rude and annoying but I always knew there would be more to him. LK made me fall in love with Oren so hard and gave this book a bit of everything. At times I was laughing out loud and the next on the verge of tears. Caroline was funny and obviously Oren was bloody hilarious, at times he said inappropriate things and still made them sound sweet and adorable! 

“What the fuck have you done to me Caroline? … Why couldn’t I stay away from you? … Why can’t I get enough of you? … What do I want to own every fucking piece of you?”

There were so many parts I wasn't expecting I went in kind of thinking it would be angsty and Caroline and Oren would be going back and forth, not knowing what they wanted.It wasn't like that, there was s much more to it.And finally Caroline's past all made sense and so did Oren's. There was such a deep sadness in his life, he was constantly battling it all, yet you would have never have known because he was so good at hiding it. You look at him and see this happy go lucky character, the class clown, not someone who has a big part of himself hidden even from his closest friends.

I can not wait to carry on with this series even though I'm not sure who this next character is but Linda Kage is awesome and I'm sure I will love whoever this Knox guy is as well, another author whose books will be ones I need to buy in paperback one day! I would definitely re-read them, well I have already re-read Picks book ;)

My Review

5 STARS!!

After reading The dark light of day I added T.M.Frazier on my list of authors I needed to stalk and read every book they write.When the first book they write turns out to be frikin amaaazing you feel like what if the next book doesn't live up to your expectations because the bars been set pretty high right now. Well let me tell you Mrs Frazier just keeps upping her game.

Every book she has written has you up at night reading like you don't have to wake up the next day. There are never regrets the next day when you are walking around like a zombie answering questions with random words that make no sense since your mind is still stuck in the book you read the night before. Oh add in the cliffhanger that has you trying to figure out what will happen next and then staring at your calendar hoping days would go faster since release date seems too far away.And who the hell can wait so long. So yeah you are slowly dying day by day. Thanks T.M.Frazier!

"If you fuck with me and what's mine, then yes, I am the judge. I am the jury. And sometimes when the situation calls for it, I am the motherfucking executioner."

It all starts out with Doe, a woman who has lost her memory who stumbles across King and everything changes.King has just came out of prison and is finding out that he doesn't enjoy the lifestyle as much as he once did.He is a tattoo artist with a business which he runs with his partner Preppy. They were two kids with rough past and they dreamed of making it big. Doe wasn't planned for, she just walked in and things changed. King is drawn to her, she isn't like him yet they fit so perfectly together.

'King filled me so completely. Not just my body. My heart. My soul. My life. I didn't give a shit if I ever got my memory back. Because with King, I knew exactly who I was.'

This book broke my heart and left my emotions all over the place and then the cliffhanger? omg give me a break woman! I loved the main characters but what was great about this book was I loved the secondary characters just as much. Bear and Preppy! I love Preppy. If you don't love Preppy then I'm sorry we can't be friends.Everyone needs a Preppy in their life. I can not wait to find out more abut Bear he is such a loyal character and he intrigues me.

I recommend this book to everyone. You just need to read this book, actually read all of T.M. Frazier's books. You won't regret it ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Review

3.5- 4 Stars!!

This book 2 of 'The edge of never' series and I loved book 1 so much it made it to my favourites and I think it was a perfect book in itself and could have been left as a standalone. I usually feel a apprehensive when I love a book and then they have a sequel but I have such high expectations due to the previous book and a lot of the times it can lead to a let down. I didn't enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed the first but I think it was because it had a different vibe to it which I will explain in a minute.

"This is our life. We met on the road; we grew to know and to love each other on the road. It's where we were meant to be for however long, and what we're going to do until it becomes clear we were meant to do something else."

First of all thank you Harper Collins UK!! I won this book on Goodreads and I'm so happy because now I have both books and they look so pretty together!(Ignore the other books, this is the only pic I have with them both!)

I read this a while back but I never got a chance to review it.I tell myself I will review straight after yet that never happens! So as I was saying this one starts off where book 1 left off from and I found out that I had missed the characters. Especially Andrew!! ;)

"Our story us over, yes, but our journey isn't, because we'll always live on the edge until the day we die."

This book has more of a serious vibe to it, there are a lot of things that happen, that these two characters go through, things start falling apart.Things aren't how they used to be but Andrew will do anything and everything to get everything back, to heal the hurt and pain. Ahh I could not get enough of him, he is just perfect. He is so patient, loving and supporting all the way through and he truly give their relationship his all.

Camryn played her part too they come together to heal each other. There were times though that Camryn really annoyed me and there was some drama I could have done without. But all in all I would totally recommend this series! And J.A.Redmeski is amazing, the writing makes you want to carry on. She is on my list of author which I need to go through and read all her books!

“You’re the world to me,” I whisper onto

her lips. “I hope you never forget that.”

“I’ll never forget,” she whispers back.. “But if I ever do, for

whatever reason, I hope you’ll always find a way to remind me.”

...“Always.”

Review: Taut: The Ford Book (Rook and Ronin Spinoff) by J.A. Huss

Synopsis

Ford Aston is known for many things. Being an emotionless, messed up bastard, a freakishly smart social outcast, and a cold, domineering master who keeps "pets" instead of girlfriends.

And after Rook broke his heart, he plans to keep it that way.

Ashleigh is known for nothing, and that's exactly what she's got going for her. She's broke, stranded in the mountains with a three month old baby, and Ford Aston is screwing with her head.

Big. Time.

And she plans to mess with his right back.

It's a coy game at first, filled with flirting, and innuendo--but Ford soon realizes something is not quite right with Ashleigh. In fact, something is seriously, seriously wrong and the closer they get to their final destination, the closer Ford gets to the truth.

One night of devastation, self-loathing, and emptiness turns into the best thing that ever happened to Ford Aston. But one day of in-your-face reality threatens Ashleigh's whole existence.


Ford first appears in Rook and Ronin #2, Manic. He has a bigger role in Panic, R&R #3, and then he has a novella, called SLACK. This TAUT book is only FORD. It's not really part of the R&R series, as that plot has all been sidelined for this one romance book.

My Review

5 Taut Stars!!

Why haven't I read any book by this author before? Where have I been?!

I have seen a lot of people go on about the series by this author but the synopsis of this one caught my eyes and I was like that's it I'm putting everything down and getting this book.And then I won a giveaway which allowed to to choose any ebook and of course I chose this one because this looked like a perfect book for me and obviously looking at what I rated it,you can tell that it sooo was!

I haven't read the 'Rook and Ronin' Series and maybe I really should? I think I would recommend reading the series first because there were a few moments of confusion for me when I didn't really know the background stuff and was curious.I'm also going to go through and add every J.A.Huss book to my TBR shelf.Thanks J.A.Huss, like I needed more on that list ;)

'I will never- ever-care for another woman for as long as I live.

I will never allow myself to be weak like this again.'

It all starts when we see Ford running away from something he needed to accept and try move on from.He thinks he needs to be alone but its the opposite, he needs someone to love.Someone who will love him with everything in her.He is fed up of being lonely, or left behind.Ford has never been normal so he wears smart clothes and tries to blend in. Being stuck in a snow storm and his car breaking down and being faced with people from his past, well things aren't looking good. That is until he decides to do something nice and let a woman with a baby sleep in the same room as him.

They are both lost and struggling to carry on in a way and when they find each other at just the right time.They need someone to hold on to and that becomes each other.There were so many parts of this book i really wasn't expecting and I didn't want it to end, I kept checking the percentage and then having a mini panic attack because I was somehow reading this fast, or it was just the fact that I could not stop reading.

BLURB

Even salvation can be delivered through the love of the damned…

Beauty can be a curse.

Faith can be a cage.

Only love can set you free.

A few long weeks after being reluctantly ripped from the comforting embrace of her sacred prophet’s religious commune—the only life she has ever known—a terrified Delilah is thrust into a world enveloped by evil and swimming in sin.

Steadfastly devout in her faith, and retaining the deep belief that her soul is innately tarnished as a branded ‘Cursed woman of Eve,’ Delilah is determined to find her way home to her people in The Order and away from the corrupt and damned outlaw motorcycle club—The Hades Hangmen—who hold her at their secluded compound for her protection—a 'protection' she strongly resents.

Delilah yearns to return home, convinced that only amongst her own people, and under the holy guidance of the Lord’s revealed prophet, can her Satan-spawned soul be truly saved. Conditioned her entire life to believe she is a witch... a life-long temptress… the devil’s whore... Delilah increasingly resents her beautiful face, her shapely body and her sensuous effect on men. But when a man of the motorcycle club—a deeply sinful yet stunningly beautiful man—is charged with her care, Delilah begins to see that this dangerous and moralless sinner from the 'outside' may offer her something she did not know could truly exist: unconditional love.

Kyler ‘Ky’ Willis loves his life: a daily abundance of brotherhood, liquor, the freedom of the open-road and—best of all—his pick of hot women. Raised a biker brat and now VP of the most notorious MC in the States, Ky has no shortage of club sluts warming his bed; a situation he takes full advantage of… until a certain blonde enters his life… a gorgeous pilgrim-blonde he can’t get out of his head… a pilgrim-blonde he and his club recently-rescued from some backward religious cult… and a pilgrim-blonde he’s been ordered to keep the hell away from and his whorish hands off.

When yet another in a lengthy line of drunken blunders forces Ky to reluctantly take charge of the pilgrim-blonde’s care, he realizes that there could be more to this woman than just supermodel looks and a stacked set of tits. He begins to see that she could be the woman who could do the impossible—tame his wild ways and capture his reluctant heart.

But the unyielding bonds of Lilah’s past are strong, her ‘people’ determined and, with a new Prophet in charge and hell bent on revenge, they are mightily reluctant to let her go...

MY REVIEW

4.5 Heartbreaking Stars!!

What a bloody roller-coaster!

I will be honest when I heard book 2 in the Hades Hangman series would be about Ky I was just like Meh..When can I have Flame? I was excited to read more about Flame and well I did get some Flame. Not enough to satisfy me but hey I will patiently wait for the next book because this book was awesome. I didn't think I would like it much, didn't know what could happen next and I was a little apprehensive thinking it may become repetitive. But no Tillie Cole did it again!!

I felt safe with Ky. I knew he was my protector... And even out in this unfamiliar world, and with as little time spent with him as I had had, I instinctively knew he would protect me from danger.

I fell in love with Ky and his love and patience. And my heart broke for Lilah I wanted to hug her and tell her everything would be alright.But then I also wanted to shake her and tell her everything she learnt was a lie!! But how do you explain to someone that everything they believed was wrong and its not her fault it just the horrible people she was around.

'We had been forced to exist after being ripped from our home, ripped from all we knew: the commune. The Order. The Lord’s Prophet. We belonged with God’s Chosen Ones.'

I never thought it would take her that long to adapt but the more you read the more you discover about her life, what she went through as a child and how it changed things for her.It made it so difficult for her to let go of her beliefs. She isn't like Mae, she didn't run away, she was forced to leave a place she thought of as home.She wants to be back there and the new world she lives in, she can't understand it.

We are introduced to new characters who basically become like family. That's what they all are, one big family. I loved it and can not wait for more..obviously because more means Flame's book which hellooo I want..like yesterday!! I loved the Flame bits we got and the ending what Ky was willing to do to make Lilah happy!! ahhhh I do love a happily ever after. Well done Tillie, don't ever stop writing ;)
