📄 Plot: “If she were to die… the world would die with her.”

The worst Adeline Reilly expected for her life were a few unholy ghosts haunting the hallways of Parsons Manor, not falling in love with her stalker and ending up in the clutches of a trafficking ring.

Trapped in a house used to groom women for the elite, she faces the biggest fight of her life—survive the Culling and escape. But that’s not so easy when watchful eyes are determined to see her fail. However, Adeline may have an unlikely ally, who just might be the key to her getting out alive.

But trusting them is a risk that could cost her everything.

Meanwhile, Zade will stop at nothing until Adeline is safe in his arms again, even if he must burn the world to find her. Hunting his little mouse is what he’s best at, but who she’ll be when he finds her is a battle that he doesn’t know he can win.

💭 My Thoughts: This is book 2 of the cat and mouse saga!!! This was not easy to read. It was inanely graphic and I do not recommend for squeamish readers. I had to physically stop reading at some points and take a break from what I was reading. That being said, it was amazing. It was well written, the plot was 10/10, the twists and turns kept me guessing, and yes there was just as much spice as the first. H D Carlton is a mastermind.

⭐ Star Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
