My Review
If you
are looking for the normal HAE you won’t find it here, the ending is happy but
sad in many ways. This is one book that pulled me in and keeps you, you won’t
be able to put it down. If you think you have this story worked out you had
better think again. Nothing is as it seems there are many twists and turns that
will blow your mind. Just when I thought
I had a handle on where it was going the author throw a major twist and floored
me. The author pulls you in from the first page to the last with so much pain,
hurt, sorrow, drama, love, need, want and so much more. I so loved this but I am so torn with the
ending which is a good one but not your normal. Everything in this book is intriguing
from the characters to the narrator and the plot.
My heart
so goes out to Hannah she has had a rough life not an easy start but has pulled
herself out of the past and made something of herself. Now her husband is never
home which means there isn’t much us time. She turns to drinking just like her
mother. One night her husband talks in his sleep which will change her life
more than she ever could imagine. She starts investigate and finds out more
than she wanted. Who is the man and what happen to the man she married? Before
she is done she will question everything even herself, what is real and what
isn’t, along with who can she trust and why are they doing this to her?
Dallin
is just something else you have to read it to believe it and is about all I can
say about him. You are not going to believe this man.
As
Hannah sets in the lobby waiting to meet her husband a man name Black talks to
her asking her questions. Than when her husband has her abducted and she wakes
up to find Black is there she runs. He said he can help her but will he? They
are on the run for their lives as the work out the mystery of Dallin and why he
has become so violent.
Rebecca
Roberts did a wonderful amazing job of narration from her character voices to
her emotions. You can feel the hurt, pain and hate come right off the pages.
Her deep gnawing male voices will give you chills. Even I was scared of Hannah’s
father. There are no background noises and no breaks taken that I could hear
just a wonderful highly entertaining listen. Ms. Roberts pulls you in and never
let’s go. This is one narrator you do not want to miss. I for one cannot wait
to listen to more from her.
This is a
very thrilling exciting fast pace read. It does have violence in it. The author
gives you wonderful characters and some that aren’t so great which adds so much
to this story. Hannah is fighting the demons not only of her past but her future as she takes the
world on to find the answers to so many questions. It is a game of kill or be
killed. Carter Wilson gives you a book you
won’t be able to put down as this author takes you through the pace of one woman
who loses everything in just a few hours. If you are looking for an exciting
read which will keep you guessing that has thrills, chills and passion this is
the book for you. You will be torn throughout this outstanding read. There will
be times you will say no, no please do let that be true as well as other times
when you will do a lot of cheering and say it is about time. I enjoyed this so
much from the narrator to the author that I pick this as one of my favorite
reads. I recommend this read just keep in mind it does have a happy ending just
not an ending we may want it is more of a real ending as life is today.

mystery behind Dallin's sudden violence. Does Hannah's dark family history hold
the key to her survival?

What
the Critics Say
"Gritty, unflinching, and
sometimes violent, this thriller is reminiscent of Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl
and the television series The Equalizer. The characters are intriguing
and the writing deliciously descriptive. Adrenaline junkies and fans of darker
crime fiction will take to this book, which is compelling and exciting enough
to be read in one sitting." (Library Journal)
"Outstanding paranoid
thriller." (Publishers Weekly)
"In addition to its rollicking
pace and complex characters, the book's turns of phrase and evocative imagery
make it enjoyable. 'Hannah's premarital fling is a romance that lasted not much
longer than the flowers.' A promontory is described as 'a snake of land'.
Hannah thinks of the color black: 'She could hide in [it]. Wrap it around her.'
Thriller aficionados, especially women, will wrap themselves in this novel's
pages with gusto." (ForeWord Reviews)
