Review: Good, dark MC story
Rating: 4 out of 5

This book was darker than Bella’s previous MC series, and my empathy levels were high reading about Axel and all that he’s been through.  As Meadow realizes, the man she knew growing  up was no longer there, and no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't catch a glimpse of him.  Axel, as he says it, is all kinds of "messed" up and he pushes her away so she isn't tainted by his darkness.  The sexy times are wild and hot, because Axel likes it when Meadow fights him and then submits.  Out of all of Bella’s books I've read, I believe this is her best work so far.  She makes you feel the heartbreak, the fear, the desolation, a small sliver of hope, and you keep turning the page, waiting for a ray of happiness to shine down onto these two people.  And I will admit, it does not come easily, and not until the last several pages do you see the sun peeking through the clouds.
