What an amazing book! I was hooked from start to finish. It's a short read so I was able to finish it in one sitting. I actually hadn't planned on starting this book until later this week but I was sucked in by the synopsis and once I started reading I couldn't stop, even a headache didn't stop me. I'm even hurrying through this review so I can start on the next book. So, I'm going to make this somewhat short and sweet.Although this book ended at a place that left me feeling content the rest of the story will make you feel anything but. My heart shattered for the situations thrown Lyla's way. She endured so much and I found myself wanting to jump into this book and hold her hand. I'm talking major situations that you should prepare yourself for if you're going to read this. I won't give things away but I will say, don't expect rainbows and butterflies. Lyla's story (so far) is anything but.A lot of people talk about author's writing styles and it wasn't until recently that I fully grasped that. Mary's words captured me from beginning to end. She has a way with entwining these words so that I felt myself hurting right along with Lyla. I was so lost in the story that it was like a movie playing inside of my head. At no point did I stop because of a hiccup in the story-line or writing style. I can already tell you that Lyla's story will stick with me for a long time.Not only was the book amazing but I keep finding myself staring at the cover. I love the artwork and it even reminds me of the Sookie Stackhouse covers which are some of my favorites.Now I will end this review telling you to strongly consider investing in this book, it's 100% worth it.Excuse me while I start the next book in the series...
