My Thoughts

A fast-paced, could not put down a novel.

Loved the writing style, and how well-developed the characters are.

Kept me interested from beginning to end, and loved the multiple POV.  

Thank you to the Publisher St. Martin's Press and Netgalley for the Advanced Free Copy in exchange for an honest review.
