I love Shay Savage and her words. Seriously I always know that her stories are going to have something unexpected and I love that. Again, it's so true in this story. Not what I expected at all, totally different and so well written.Evan is a total messed up character, and his POV is so well written. You feel like you are in his head and he has some crazy messed up thoughts. Wasn't expecting the ending at all and that threw me too. Actually, I wasn't expecting the girl in the story either but yet she played a huge role in the story and kept me thinking about Otherwise Alone's character Lia and when she would appear (if she would?!).I'm not such a huge fan of mafia books, death, illegal activities and such, but if Shay writes it I will read it and I am surprised how much I liked it. For awhile I was thinking this may be too dirty for me (possible??!) but nahhh it was well written and kept with the honesty of Evan. Plus who doesn't love a controlling male character? I do wish all 3 books would be put together, but I understand why it was broken up the way it was.Read Otherwise Alone first and then you will be shocked the direction of Otherwise Occupied takes you.
