The whole book was gross. Her age made it weird. His lying was manipulative to a young person. The writing was sloppy and choppy. The ending was rushed and didn't make any sense. It's a lot of guess work to figure out what is happening and who's talking some times. Backstories that don't mean anything and dots that never connect. It had a lot of great potential, but definitely not very sensitive to trauma victims. I had high hopes because of the reviews I saw and the given description. But this was a lot to get through.

I found the first part of the story monotonous but then it picked up and I couldn't wait to turn the pages. However, the ending left me totally flumoxed and very confused. I have no idea what on earth the ending meant - extremely frustrating and disappointing.

First of all, the review date is incorrect. It is 3 August 2020.What a total lot of nonsense! There were so many holes in this plot. I have never read such a badly written book before! It doesn't make any sense. The author had clearly not done any research on trauma victims before! A girl that went through so much trauma would take months if not years before they would want to get near a man, never mind be in any kind of relationship. When the "hero" of the story had sexual thoughts about a rape victim so early on in the book I should have stopped reading immediately. The sexual thoughts and feelings he had throughout the book were sickening.The general theme would have made for a great story, however, this was a thriller that turned into a romantic novel gone horribly wrong. The villians were caught and dealt with way too easily as well which makes it very unbelievable.The chapters with the short words and phrases were terrible. It was supposed to portray the events of the girl's trauma as well as her feelings which it definitely didn't. Everyone in the story got the full details, except for the reader!!

About the author

Demelza Carlton is the USA Today bestselling author of more than 100 fairytale and paranormal romances, with over 4 million copies sold worldwide and readers in 30+ languages. She's best known as the queen of fairytale romance — author of the Romance a Medieval Fairytale series, a 27-book collection of steamy, meticulously-researched retellings of the stories you grew up with: Beauty and the Beast (Enchant), Cinderella (Dance), Little Mermaid (Silence), Sleeping Beauty (Awaken), Snow White (Reflect), Rapunzel (Weave), Red Riding Hood (Hunt), Rumpelstiltskin (Spin), Aladdin (Wish), Hansel and Gretel (Return)… twenty-seven and counting, all set in a single shared medieval world, all written for grown-ups who never stopped loving the happily ever after. If fairytales aren't your thing, there's plenty more on the shelf. Monster romance readers can pick up the Heart of Stone, Heart of Steel and Heart of Ice series — gargoyle shifters who protect the human women they fall for, and Norse gods (Fenrir, Thor, Loki, Odin) walking around in modern-day Perth, with all the chaos that implies. Romantasy fans should head to Fated Mates of Mirror Academy: dragon, lion, wolf, tiger and bear shifters in a steamy fated-mates shifter academy. Think enemies-to-lovers, found family, and one truly unwise dragon nerd. Sci-fi romance readers go to The Colony series — three arcs (Holiday, Aqua, Nyx), aliens with personality, cowboys (yes, really), and an interplanetary romance line-up that's gone seriously sideways. Romantic comedy lives in two places: Mel Goes to Hell (Lucifer is real, he's hot, and he's a terrible boss), and Romance Island Resort, a luxury tropical island where the staff keep falling for the guests — rock stars, billionaires and the kind of bridal parties paradise was made for. For the romantic-suspense and psychological-thriller end of Demelza's catalogue, head deeper. The Siren of War series stars predatory sirens — Homer's deadly seductresses, not Disney's Ariel — lurking in the deep off Western Australia's Indian Ocean coast, in aqua and turquoise water with currents that aren't nearly so polite. And the Nightmares Trilogy is the romantic-suspense series that started Demelza's career: a psychological thriller where a girl is kidnapped by a serial killer, survives against the odds, and turns vigilante when she fears ordinary justice will fail her. What ties everything together: funny, hopeful, sexy stories where the heroine isn't sorry about wanting what she wants, the villains absolutely get what's coming to them, and a little vigilante justice goes a long way. Meticulously researched but never bogged down in detail — bright, fast and unapologetically Australian. The personal bit: Demelza lives in Perth, Western Australia — officially the shark attack capital of the world. On her first ever snorkelling trip she discovered she was afraid of fish, then got over it; since then she's swum with sea lions, sharks and sea cucumbers, and once stood on a spray-drenched cliff as a seven-metre cyclonic swell surged in and shattered a shipwreck below her. (She had the camera out, naturally.) She can also assure you that sharks taste delicious. Where to start: the free reader quiz at demelzacarlton.com matches you to up to nine free books based on what kind of reader you actually are.
