Lisa/Melanie Faye is a model with a traumatic past. In the present time, it still haunts her because she received lots of threats and makes her life a living hell. She's vulnerable because she is abused and her friends are going to do anything to keep her safe, but she knows that it won't be forever. She meets Tristan Blake, her hot-&-cold professor. Her attraction to him is undeniable but trusting him isn't enough. He has a secret, seeks for an answer and the only way to find out is to earn Lisa's trust. 
 I'm in awe of how this book is beautifully written. The story isdark, intense, romantic, alluring and unputdownable. I also love the twist and turns in this book and Rachel Van Dyken wrote this perfectly. This can be read as a standalone, but I prefer you read the entire series so you'll get to know more about all the characters mentioned in this book. 
 So much feelings for this book. It's heavier than the previous two because this one is about abuse. My heart aches for Lisa through out this book. (view spoiler)[She was raped and degraded by her ex-boyfriend. (hide spoiler)]. Tristan Blake is one sexy, hot professor. omfg. *fans self* Forgive me for fangirling like this, I can't help it. He is caring, protective, cocky, and romantic. Why is the name 'Tristan' freaking sexy? Hands down perfect! 
 Praises to Rachel Van Dyken! I'm sure be looking forward to read her future novels.
