But, as deeply as the book delved into the touchy, feely stuff it really came up short in other areas like the who's, what's & why's of Hope's monster and the Hunters, for instance. I don't want to give too much away, but let's just say that the listener is given thorough insight into the main characters' every thought and feeling, particularly the heroine's. For starters, while I appreciated it's substantial length (love me a good, long book!) and how it took it's time - so much better than feeling rushed - there were moments throughout where I felt the story was 'dragging it's feet', so to speak, and it ocassionally felt too repetitive. And if I break, the darkness inside me will finally be free.įor a debut novel, I found this book quite impressive overall and I enjoyed it quite a bit, but the story definitely has it's flaws. But should they ever discover just who they've let into their home, just what I really am.their hatred could be the one thing that finally breaks me. They may think they want to know me, they may think the secrets they guard behind hard eyes and closed expressions comes close to the ones I keep. And when they offer me a place to stay while I heal, I can't say no.īut the secrets I carry are deadly, and my past is a twisted, evil nightmare better left forgotten. Wild and untamed, their feral natures call to me, their warrior hearts make mine come alive. When a desperate escape leads to another brush with death, I'm forced to place my trust in the hands of four formidable strangers. For 18 years they've done their best to break me, to tear me open and unleash the terrifying monster that lives within.

For 18 years I've suffered at the hands of the Hunters.
