Synopsis
When I opened my eyes, I was in a cell, my body covered in bruises. Not a jail. I’d been kidnapped and imprisoned. I wasn’t alone. I shared the cell with Garin Woods, the man I’d loved since I was a kid. The man I couldn’t be with because of the secret. A man who would kill me if he found out what that secret was. Someone wanted to torture me. Torture us. One of us deserved it. It wasn’t Garin.Goodreads
Review
RATING:
Daayyyum!!! I knew it!!!
This, this tells me what Marni can do when she puts her mind to it.
(Start typing… backspace… start typing… delete, delete… start typing) Daayyyum!!!
Trying to wrap my head around this one…. Where do I start? There are triggers in this book that’s definitely not for the faint of heart. It’s dark… and it’s deviously delicious…
The story opens up when Garin and Kyle were young. It’s a hard life. One pivotal moment caused their paths to diverge. One pivotal moment that led to where Kyle and Garin found themselves prisoned. One pivotal moment that caused it all.
Kyle’s present was shaped by her past. Her path took her back to Garin because of a loss. She’s saddled with a great burden and she knew the price she’s paid and continues to pay. Garin may have moved on but not entirely and his path circled back to Kyle because of the events in the past. Questions needed answers. Events needed closure.
Marni took me thru some really dark moments. Some of its vileness made my stomach queasy. She definitely didn’t hold back. She gave me heat in all the wrong places yet it all felt right, and I felt every bit of it. Hot dang! But not just that, she made me feel! Having both POVs definitely enhanced the experience…
I thought I had answers but I didn’t. And when I thought I was right, I was wrong AND right at the same time. I speculated, and speculated, and speculated right til the end. And speaking of that ending, I loved an ending which gets my mind going long after the story’s finished. Whether I’m heading in the right direction that Marni wants me to go or not, I say it’s ok. Ultimately, after all is said and done, it’s like I’m left with an experience.
So far, of all my Marni reads, this is the darkest, and by far my favorite… I think… what does that say about me then, eh? Hmmm...
