Hey. What is the significance of the #13 tattoo?
I don't know if they explained why "13", but it is covering the scar from the wound she helped treat when they were kids
needs a 2nd so many questions unanswered....

Totally agree. I'm happy with how this one ended. Considering what went on in the book, it made more sense to have the type of ending that it had. Everything isn't always tied into a neat little perfect bow. And that type of ending would not have fit with what you got in this book. I thought the ending was not only fitting, but true to form, concerning the characters & the story we got with them. It ended on a shocking note, yes, & I can certainly understand why people would want a traditional hearts & flowers ending to come along with a 2nd book.
But it didn't leave me wanting another book or outcome/ending.
Well, I am not sure there are soooo many questions unanswered...pretty much tied everything up. He wanted to be "dead" and he is; he said he would "come back for them" and he did/does.His name was Antonio Falco, and she names their son after him, Antonio Falcon (not Falco) Jr....mistake? No where in the book does it say he changed his name from Falco to Falcon. And is there any significance to the use of Falcon...the bird? known for their acute eyesight, unbelievable speed and hunting expertise.
But, my question remains...WHY 13?

I think u just came across typos. There were a lot of them in the book, so that's what I chocked the name misspelling to, when she named her son. it didn't strike me as something that had a meaning to it.But the Falcon & Falco thing as far as the "meaning" I took that at the beginning to be a play on words concerning his name etc.. Like when people use alias or change their name, they keep it as close to possible as their given name without making it obvious what their name really is or what it means/signifies etc.. The 13 thing, I did wonder did it have a meaning to him, other than it was obviously the number that covered his scar well. But since it was never really expounded on in the story, I just accepted it was a random number he chose to cover his scar. Like he just liked the way it looked & it served it's purpose.
Hmmmm. I am not sold on the typo theory as far as the Falco/Falcon thing. And as for the #13, I would think it is more than a random choice. I would have a hard time accepting the "unlucky" connotation because luck was never referenced.
Twitch is very deliberate with his goals...make money, find Alexa, "break" her, etc.
Very disappointed that there will not be a 2nd book....just seems like there is more to the story....I do hope the author will reconsider.

I totally agree!
I have to say, I did love this book and of course the ending too. I respect the author for keeping it as a stand alone. She easily could write a sequel and even have spin off books...Happy or Ling. BUT she did exactly what she said she would do in the blurb. I want more Twitch!! But I think she left a lot unanswered...The #13 bothers me, I want to know why 13. He seems like he has a purpose and reason for everything...so why #13 dammit!!!!

How can u not do another book first book just leaving us all hanging
According to Oliver Peck, one of the judges on the television show "Inkmaster", It's a symbol of good luck. The folklore goes that if you have the number 13 tattooed on you, bad luck will see it, assume you have already had bad luck, and pass you by...maybe he felt lucky that lexi cared that night.....and im with the majority we need a second book, im so mad right now at this ending, like really chuffing MAD...sort it belle please.
NO SECOND BOOK! WHAAATTT??!! ooh no. NO. NOOOOOOOOOO! Damn that is such a let down.
I really need a second book!!!!
