Elijah was sick, demented and a freak in every sense of the word. How anyone could be sexually attracted to their sibling is beyond me. Elijah got just what he deserved and so did Tierra. I'm happy Johana ended up with David. Sur deserved a good man in her corner. Great read.
Octavia is a very good writer that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Only thing I didn't like was how slow it started out the end of book one. Overall I still rate this book 5 Stars. CAN'T wait to read more of Ms. Grants books.
