*** I received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review. ***I have always been a fan of Dawn Robertson's work and although I've never read anything by Lily White, I had a feeling this book would be amazing. I wasn't sure what to expect going in to this story, because the blurb grabs your attention and makes you want to read it, I didn't feel like it gave any indication of what the book was really about, and I think that completely enhanced my reading experience. I have never read a book this dark before, and I LOVED IT! Every word! If you want a story that shows that love knows no bounds than this is the book for you!Eleni is probably one of my all time favorite literary heroines. She is strong willed, passionate, powerful, caring, and well she'll kick your ass. When I first met Eleni, I didn't really know how I was supposed to feel about her. I almost hated her in the beginning, then as the story progressed I found myself feeling sorry for her. Next thing I knew I was crying for her, and in the end I absolutely loved her.Gabriel I loved right from the start. Yeah he was twisted and had issues, and that is what makes me love him. I really enjoyed his back story and the way it feeds into the story being told now. Regardless of the way he treats Eleni he loves her, and that is his way of showing her.The story had me turning pages like crazy to find out what happens next. What is he going to do to torture her next. Is she going to be able to break through his walls and get him to see how much she loves him? Then when there is a giant plot twist I literally shouted "STFU!" The end of this book completely blew me away, and the epilogue was the icing on the cake.I give this book 5 beautifully twisted stars! I can't wait to see if these two phenomenal authors will team up again! This book definitely makes my list for best books of 2014.
