Great story

Had me very confused in the beginning. I didn’t really know what was going on. But I kept at it and it all started falling in to place. The author is good. And will follow. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Happy reading !

This book kept me reading

Definitely allow yourself time to read to the end. Lots of twists and turns that keep you interested to the very end.

Action packed

This book was full of action and surprises. The author did a great job of thing everything together and catching the bad guys.

I gave up on this book at about halfway. I couldn't get into the book and I just for the life of me couldn't figure out the story/plot.

The characters were interesting and plot compelling, but I didn't like the "voice" of the narration. It felt rushed, like the dialog and descriptions were spoken at lighting speed. It also took forever to understand the relationships between characters and past events, not for lack of trying, but I always felt like I was missing the connections between people; so, I didn't understand their motivations.

I won this in a Goodreads giveaway, and I thought it was a very entertaining book. There were some parts where it got a little stupid and carried away (the characters got away with breaking and entering too many times for my liking), but overall it was a quick, entertaining, easy to follow book that is well worth reading.

The plot itself wasn't bad, but the characters were poorly written. The sociopath didn't come off like one at all; the main female protagonist did seem like a sociopath - even though she wasn't supposed to be - and the romantic dialog was laughable. But like I said, the plot itself wasn't bad. I'd give it 2.5 stars if that were an option.

8/7/13 Ref by Jon C. (works with Author); Obtained as a freebie "one-day-only, first author." I tried twice to acquaint with characters & had difficulty. I suppose that I'll just put it down & try again a another date.

Interesting read

Starts out slow and confusing until you get further into the story. After a few chapters it was easier to follow the storyline a little disappointing

[Gwynn · Rating 4 out of 5]
