The title made me think this was going to be a completely different story. I expected it to be all out war between them but what it turned out to be was a lovely warming tale of love and finding happiness with the hand you've been given in life.

Fair enough, it wasn't all sweetness and light. In fact, it made me want to throw my Kindle across the room a few times with Reed's actions and words and how he was determined to push Charlotte away. But I LOVED how she pushed back, trying to break down his barriers.

It all worked out in the end but it kept me wondering until almost right at the end.

Hmm...where to start. Let's give it 2.5 stars.

This book has sent me cartwheeling through so many feelings: intrigue, horror, indifference, happiness but I can't say that, in the end, I understood the story. I didn't get it.

Why could Mara do these things? Was she the cause of the asylum collapse? What about Noah? What happened to the building they were after?

Admittedly from about the 25% mark to about 70% I was enjoying the story but then I just got really confused when Noah confessed his secret. I had no idea what that had to do with the rest of the plot.

Not really to my liking. I wont be continuing the series.
