I thought I loved Between Wrath & Mercy…but then along came Between Despair & Hope and that was when I knew true love. The character development was absolutely top notch. The story is sooooooo good and brought on ALL the feelings. Especially the despair. Never has a title been more accurate with how it made me feel. The number of gasps and expletives I let out while reading is a little ridiculous. And true to the title there was also some hope threaded in there, so now I cannot wait for Between Fear and Favor to release. I need more.
