So we walked away from RAW devastated and sure that we were
going to be left on that ending. Then we found out that Belle was writing
another one for Julius and I have to be honest I was incredibly apprehensive
about putting myself through that again. But then I had to know. So I picked it
up and literally couldn’t put it down.
I cooked dinner with it in one hand while I sobbed over the
horrors Ana had experienced at the hands of the people who loved her. The way
her story started I loved how sweet she was but I had this idea in my head of
who I thought she was going to turn into as I watched the sharp decent her life
took. I expected this hard, bitter, manipulative bitch (you know kind of like
Ling) so when she was just so broken but still so sweet I was torn between
wanting to wrap her up in a blanket and cuddle her and shake her and tell her
to get a back bone and to not trust anyone.
Julius was awesome and I loved him in Raw so much but damn did
he need his arse kicked for the way this story played out. Luckily for him he
redeemed himself so perfectly I think I could forgive him almost anything. Ling
I have hated from the start and although my heart breaks for all she went
through I am sincerely waiting to see the bullet pierce her cold dead heart.
Now I do need to say there was a lot of this book that didn’t
work for me and I had a lot of WTF moments where I just felt like maybe we had
skipped over something or several things but then the story dragged me back in
and I suspended my disbelief and got wrapped back up in what was happening. I had
an idea of how the various character’s stories would collide and the Twitch
mystery would be unveiled to Julius so I did feel a little disappointed in the
way that played out. And like I said I hated Ling so much I feel she ruined a
lot of the story between Julius and Ana but I get that we are probably being
set up for more in the next book.
As per usual a lot of people died and some of them were the
wrong people so I felt like I got my heart stomped on again and again and every
time I stopped crying I would end up holding my breath waiting for the next
trauma. And despite the three epilogues (all ridiculously too short) I feel
like everything is still so unfinished I both curse and applaud Belle Aurora
for her talent in leaving me on that knifes edge. It literally took me two
hours after putting this book down to compose myself enough to go to sleep at
3am. Hopefully we don’t have to wait as long for the next one.
