This book was all over for me.  I loved Ace- bad boy bad a$$ did something for me.  He is in no way the hero, but London didn’t need one.  Or so the beginning led me to believe.London bothered me- this girl has lived this difficult life, depended on herself yet when Jonah dies she falls apart.  Quickly loses all the grit and strength she was supposed to have.  Yes, her brother died, yes that is horrible, but he was really only on the periphery of her life.  The way he died was violent and she witnessed it.  Soooo, why not go to the cops?  Why believe the one guy (Ace) with no evidence to support him?  Then she is completely sucked in by him, his life and all of the drama that is Ace.  With absolutely no promise of a tomorrow- happy ever after or otherwise.So many characters in the story that held no impact for me- Bianca- supposed to be Aces’s sanity?? Not so much. Krane- not sure why he was trusted. Gerrick-meh.The first bit of the book sucked me in, then shortly after Jonah died it floundered.  I am probably one of the few who will say the ending was incredible.  How else could their tale end? Painful, violent, passionate.  The ending brought  London’s character to the forefront and revived her strength.  Love isn’t easy or pretty, yet always worth it.
