Holy crap! I think my poor, battered heart needs a rest after being hit with this emotional wrecking ball. It was just so bittersweet. There are parts that are just lovely, super sweet and all the more heart-breaking for the gut-wrenchingly sad moments. This book does not leave off directly from where the prequel novella, Very Wicked Beginnings ended, a year has passed and a lot has happened inbetween. The holes in the story are filled out in dribs and drabs throughout the story with flashbacks and in the dialogue between Cuba and Dovey. This book really got to me, the angst and the back and forth between the two main characters, I just wanted to bang their heads together. I could have screamed through my kindle to get them to just bloody talk to each other! It frustrated the hell out of me, and I LOVED it! Ilsa Madden-Mills can sure write one hell of a love story, she leaves you feeling battered and bruised with the echoes of the emotions the story evokes still lingering for hours after you've finished. She kept me awake with this book, I was foolish to try and sleep before I managed to finish it, I could not rest until I knew the outcome. Yes, it's THAT good....
