Author posts a trigger warning.

Dahlia should be happy, but is she? Vlad has plans, but if you don’t read then you’ll never find out what they are. It wasn’t long before this book grabbed my attention. Was it Vlad? Was it Dahlia? What I can tell you is that I wanted to know what direction this author was taking her characters.

Her words were the driving force that had me flipping page after page. Once she had her hooks in me, I had no option but to continue. Our author did such a good job when she created her scenes that there’s no way that you can’t feel something. After meeting Vlad in the first book, I was surprised how my thoughts on him changed. Dahlia gives the reader a glimpse into her past. Feeling something is a given.

I was confused by her this time. Her job may be one of the toughest jobs out there but her skin seems to be a little thin for what she has to do. But if you add in her heart, that just adds to the puzzle. After finishing this second half of Vlad and Dahlia’s story, I can see why it took two books. There was too much to try and cram into one. The author didn’t try and rush this story to get to an ending either. Her characters had something to tell us and the ending would come once they were ready. I’m looking forward to when the next book comes out – if you can’t tell, I’ve quickly become a fan.

I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
