OMG!!!!!! ROYAL FUCKING SAVAGE!!!!!! HOT! HOT!! HOTTTTT!!!!!!!!!! 
 I cannot explain how much I loved this book. It was beautiful, dark, twisted, and heartbreaking. Royal's pain twisted my own soul with all the torment and hurt he battled through. He let it consume him and eat him up inside. At the same time he was such a beautifully broken character and I love him so soo much. Avalon was also great, i just loved this girl because she was so understanding and never judged him. She accepted him for his faults and his past. Royal and Avalon were perfect for each other. 
 There was a point in this book where i actually wanted to burst into tears. It breaks you down and lifts you up. Everyone need to read this book. Victoria is an amazing writer, everything flowed beautifully and I could not and would not put this book down unless I absolutely had to. This may very well be one of my favorite books and now favorite author. 
 This book does deal with violence and death. Again I think it helps make this book raw and gritty. Royal is a tormented man after losing everything he held dear, but unexpectedly finds himself wanting Avalon. Something he didn't thin he was capable of. I loved getting inside not only Royals head but Avalon's as well. Gosh I just loved every page of this book. I could not get enough. I loved it.
