I’m obsessed with this book! I picked it up blind and didn’t know what I was getting in to at all, but once I was about a third of the way through I couldn’t get enough! THANK GOD Kya and Tate got together in the end, I would have been very mentally unwell if they didn’t. Also the bomb at the very end of Kya as Amanda Hamilton and the evidence of her killing Chase??? INSANE! I usually don’t love books written in third person but I loved this once and I think it was necessary in order to include so many different perspectives (mainly Tate’s). 5 stars for sure!
