This book is too slow. Not much at all happens for the first 2/3 of it. There is no build up of anything, just a lot of nothing that doesn’t help to keep you wanting to read.

I tried to enjoy this book-it had a good plot to begin with, but the author didn’t seem to be able to mesh it all together enough for me to get into it like other books I’ve read. I hope I’m not being to ugly about it-it just wasn’t a good read

The beginning was extremely slow, and at the end there is hardly any animosity between Conner and Angela. It really is annoying, because where is the reality? If you were kidnapped, would you just stand around talking with your kidnapper? I certainly hope not. This book was pretty good though, but like I said before. Way. To. Slow.

The plot is well thought out and consistent throughout the story. The characters are sympathetic - you feel the love, despair, desperation, sorrow, and guilt. This reads a bit like a YA book but is written well enough to be enjoyed by adults. -1 star. The end has a soft-core cliff-hanger. While a largest part of the plot is dedicated to a goal, which is achieved, it is done so in the very last few pages of the book and this book ends before the story's climax concludes. If you want to feel like the story is satisfactorily ended you will need to start the next book in the trilogy. It's such a great story that it's hard to resist so be ready to shell out for the other books!

❤️❤️❤️❤️ can't wait to read the next one!
