You wake up in the middle of the night.
Your five-year-old daughter is gone.
Your husband is nowhere to be seen.
Your family think he took her.
The police believe hes guilty.
But he wouldnt do that, would he?
Hes a loving father. A loving husband. Isnt he?
This book is about a mother, Anna, who will do anything to get her five year old daughter back. I really liked how the author portrayed Anna. All this mother wanted was to get her daughter back and would stop at nothing to do this. In the end she had to be brave and face her demons of the past to do this.
I also liked that there were so many twists and turns throughout the whole book. You never knew what surprise was coming next. This book had me guessing up til the end.
I thought I had it figured out but boy was I wrong, and I'm glad I was. Great book!
Recommend Reading!
Thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

I did not like this book as much as I did the first novel, Red Queen. I think this is because it is the second book, and a lot of times, the second book is meh.
I feel like the characters did not develop much from the first book. It may have been because the narrator Mare was skewing the other characters, but it just didn't do it for me I guess. The new characters were cool, but we didn't get to know them enough, in my opinion. I did not feel attached to any of them.
I did like how the plot was moving along. I think it developed very well and has introduced a lot of things that we will get to adventure through in the next book to come. There were some pretty cool moments in battles and some turns that I didn't see coming, so that was really nice. And I especially loved the ending.
There wasn't much of the romance, but it did get very angsty for quite a bit of the story.
I am excited for the next book to come out to see what will happen to the characters! I honestly think the next book will be amazing!

This resulted in some extreme moments which I never saw coming. It was written well with an excellent cast. I can never take David Koechner seriously in anyovie he does but he does have a certain creep factor about him.
I like how contained it was. It was mainly set inside 1 house. It didn't go too crazy or extreme with too much money on the line. It went far enough with a believable amount of $250,000 overall. I feel the less money being offered, the more it felt desperate and extreme. It does make me think there may be some rich people out there who get off on this kind of thing.
There are definitely some "look away" moments which is good for this kind of movie and there was a decent amount of gore.
Definitely worth a watch and this was 1 of those movies that I only paid £1 for the blu ray. Can't argue with that.

While I still don't have all the supporting characters straight in my head, the characters important to this mystery are all well developed. That includes not only the suspects, but the main characters. Thanks to a couple of sub-plots, I found the pacing uneven, although things did pick up for the climax. Things do fit together well, but there is a major timing issue in the climax. It annoys, but it is minor overall. While I always enjoy Jenn's books, I found this one super funny, laughing out loud multiple times over the course of the story. I'm already looking forward to my next stop at this library.

Seth’s time is running out. If he can’t hand over the entrance to Olympus, his own life and those of his people will be forfeit. No matter the torture, Seth hasn’t been able to break the god in his custody. Then there’s the beautiful Dream-Hunter Lydia: She isn’t just guarding the gates of Olympus—she’s holding back one of the world’s darkest powers. If she fails, an ancient curse will haunt the earth once more and no one will be safe. But evil is always seductive...
Sherrilyn never fails to produce a good book! This is the second one I've actually shed a tear too how can anyone treat a child like that? Seth finally got everything he deserved and Lydia helped him find it! Loved seeing a few familiar characters. I just love this world Sherrilyn has created no matter what book I read it's always like coming home!!
