My Review - 4 of 5 stars -
An interesting and quick read. It had quite a dark start, but I enjoyed Katie's journey to a better future. The danger surrounding her from the beginning kept an edge to the story. Sebastian was so protective of her, and his attraction made it stronger. The tale was enhanced by the suspense side of the story, and it was a satisfactory ending. I look forward to more in this series.
I received an ARC and this is my unsolicited review.
