Just wow! What an intense story! I waited on pins and needles for the bottom to drop out and when it did, it was sooo worth it! 
 With the way the first book ended there was only one place for this book to go. This book brought out all of Borden and Emma's vulnerabilities and gave us some insight into some of the other characters. I love a book where you root for the bad guys, where you are biting your nails, waiting to see if or when they will get their happy ending. 
 Lewis masterfully wrote a story of deception and power, lust and devotion. Some things are so graphic and dark, but you can't turn away. I finished in one sitting because I was scared to stop. RJ Lewis is an automatic one-click for me and this story just proves my point.
