I loved the first 2 books and really enjoyed the 3rd. All had some very deep issues and struggles that they characters had to overcome. After starting this book and getting to start to know Bella in more detail I thought, 'Oh, this is going to be a light, fluffy read.' Oh hell to the no. I had no idea what laid ahead. I remember reading a statement that Cora Carmack wrote after All Broke Down discussing how she picked her character Stella to be a victim of an attack and how she felt that the character was strong enough to be a voice for so many. Bella's character is feisty, smart, sexy and extremely fierce. I wouldn't want to mess with her! I was pulled in when she fell into her shame and how Rafe was able to pull her back into her true self. 
 *sigh*, Rafe, let's talk about him. Talk about perfection! Sarina sure knows how to create these amazing male characters! Smart, sexy, athletic, compassionate, committed, and who the hell doesn't want to dance the merengue with a hot sexy Latino!?!? 
 So why just 4 stars?? Well, I had a few issues. The plot for revenge was so hyped and when everything went down I was underwhelmed with it. It was just OK. But it did really resolve well. What I always love about complementary novels is getting to see other prior characters. And we get to see Corey, Scarlet, Bridger, Lucy, Graham and Rikker, but what the hell is going on with them!? Where the hell is Hartely, damnit!?!? I just wanted a little more than what was provided. 
 In the end I loved not only Bella's transformation, but how just being who she was helped evolve Lianne as well, and in turn helped lead in to the next book. Bring on The 15th Minute!!!!
