tense read

I liked the characters and the narration. The story was a little over the top.

Evil Lurks everywhere.

There are so many twists and turns in this novel. The ending is what I expected but took a while getting there.

The Waitress

Well done! Characters and plot very intriguing; lots of twists and turns. Worth taking the time to listen.

Enjoyable

This was an engaging story. The author tied the characters together nicely in an interesting plot.

mid

shallow and a bit cringy. the plot is really lacking and the protagonist is arrogant and self righteous

GRL PWR

I had zero backstory going in. I often go willy-nilly with audible stories, since they’re in my subscription.

But, hey, this one hooked me. Complex characters and great message

Intriguing story.

Kept slowly divulging new clues as the story went on. Kept my attention throughout. Enjoyed the bad boys stayed bad.

A great, easy listen

Great narrator, an easy to listen audiobook that kept me guessing the whole book. Would recommend.

Edge of seat!

I don’t often leave reviews but this story gripped me from beginning. Great story line…kept me guessing, all the way to the end. Narration was very good!

Riveting Not one moment lacking suspense or action

I never write reviews, but this Audible produced book completely surprised me, and took me by storm. The dialogue, the descriptive characters, the nonstop, action and suspense, and I do mean nonstop not one sentence was wasted it was riveting in one word. I will definitely be checking out more audible produced books, and looking into this author for more their work. Do yourself a favor and download this free book. I would’ve paid $30 for it. Enjoy.
