The Gilded Cage: Review
My honest thoughts on the Gilded Cage by Lynette Noni
This is book 2 of the Prison Healer trilogy.
I read book one & loved it, and book two was just as good!
Kiva faces struggles between her blood family and her found family & has to make some tough decisions. The decisions will ultimately come with a price, no matter what she chooses.
Filled with drama, and many emotions (including love and heartbreak!).
Overall: 5/5
