War made big mistakes in his life, mistakes he regrets and is shameful of. He hides behind a bad attitude but the truth is, he's just trying to protect himself from more hurt. He left his drug usage behind and now he's just struggling to survive, trying to get over the death of a mother who was never very "motherly" towards him, trying to get over the betrayal of his best friend and the girl he used to love, and trying to get out of a contract he's not happy with.Yes, he was portrayed under a very negative light in the previous books but in this one we see a much tender and 'human' side of War.Shaina is the tween queen, on the outside she's a happy go lucky girl, on the inside she's trying to get over the death of her sister and the distance that her parents have put between them. She wants to leave the world she leaves in behind and start living the life she's suppose to.Can these torture souls help each other and conquer their demons or will they crash and burn?This series keeps getting better and better. This third book touches a few subjects that are very delicate (drugs, suicide, depression) and I think Michelle did an excellent job portraying them in a very caring and touching way. The interactions between War and Shaina are sweet and full of raw emotion. I can't even imagine what it would feel like to lost a sibling the way she did, it takes a very strong person to survive a situation like that and the way Shaina does it with help from War is just beautiful.Same goes to the interactions between War and Bryan, real brotherhood at its best.I would highly recommend this series and this book, while you can read this as a standalone book I would recommend that your read the first two book to get the whole back story.Great job Michelle!!!
