Wow! I didn’t see how this story was going to play out. Silas was so angry, and for good cause. Lyla was stuck in a situation desperate to find a way out. I loved that she stood her ground, and in turn he can’t help but fall for her. This book had some dark themes, and my heart was broken for him. Lyla had always worked hard, and I loved that he found that inspiring. I loved that she made him see the world around him.

I also loved the dog. Every time he went to Lyla I found myself grinning. Then we had Billy causing trouble. I loved that they both talked to the animals. I do love that animals just seem to see what we can’t.
