This was an extremely fast paced book that kept me guessing up until the end. Every time I was positive I knew what really happened, something would change and I’d be stumped again. I was mildly confused in the beginning with characters POV switching occasionally, but you get to know the characters pretty quickly and that was only a problem for a couple chapters. This book has me excited to read the rest in the D.D. Warren series!

This was a lot darker than I expected, and perhaps not the best book to read just a couple months postpartum. Postpartum anxiety comes up in the book as well as a lot of other, darker ideas and themes. That being said, it was well written, interesting, and I was dying to know how it ended.
