Rating: 4 out of 5

Okay so I wasn't too sure what to expect from this psycho thriller book, I wanted to have an open mind to see where the author would take me.This is the story of a teenage boy, Adam who realizes he is different; he's obsessed with blood and killing. As the story goes on he attempts to control his urges but fails and kills his girlfriend. His family moves to a new town and he thinks he will have a fresh start and really control his darker side.Within the first week of school Adam meets Ellory, a very strong, mouthy, self-assured girl who despises Adam when they first meet. Never having had this reaction on someone Adam is intrigued and begins to pursue Ellory. She's different. Immediately Adam's urges to kill girls disappear when he's around Ellory and for the first time he begins to feel things. The couple struggles to maintain their relationship as Adam fights to keep his darker side and secret from Ellory and she begins to fall for Adam despite all the warning signs.Hammond has done a great job creating this 'bad boy' psycho killer fighting to stay in and come out. I've never read a book like this before and the way it ended really has me wishing there was a part two coming out soon. I hate when a story ends right at the climax and there is too much left up in the air.
