Let's get right down to it:The Good: This was a bit different than most of the dark romance stories I have read recently, which is refreshing. The hero was much more like-able then the heroes of many dark romances. I didn't know the hero's exact intentions until towards the end, which I loved, I like to draw my own conclusions instead of being spoon-fed everything. Lance is a strong, sexy, and an amazing alpha male type.Gwen is a sweet character, I couldn't find a thing I didn't like about her. There are also some dynamic secondary characters, I especially loved Becca. The story was fast-paced, intense and a real page turner. It also seemed to be well-researched and situation more realistic and believable. The author seemed to know what she was writing about and she wrote the story as realistically as possible.The Critical: This is really a small beef I have with many books. I'm not a fan of insta-love and their bond formed a bit quickly. I can see why Gwen clung to Lance, but even through Gwen was beautiful and had a light that attracted him to her, it took me a bit to believe his immediate attraction to her. However, considering the circumstances that were driven by intense emotion I'm willing to overlook this. It ended with a HEA, but there were a couple of loose ends I'm curious about.Overall: It ended with a HEA, but I have heard there will be a sequel. I did really enjoy this book, so I will be on the lookout for book 2!
