Even after sleeping on it, I'm not sure I can articulate what this book is about and what my impression is. It is NOT a romance, it is not erotic. And until you reach the end of their journey, you have no idea exactly what is going on. It took me two tries to get into this story. (And I only picked it up because I like Bella Jewel) But once I started, I felt compelled to finish the journey. And the journey isn't only for the thirteen girls, but for him too. Something in him was broken as a child and it has changed him. He thinks he is a monster, but what you find out is something different. He is really a saving angel.Once you know the whole story, the real story of each of the thirteen, you understand what is going on. It's not a pretty journey. There are punishments, but there are rewards. Does the balance make a difference? I don't know, but for the thirteen girls, it does. They find a balance in living in this house, a purpose, a peace. I don't want to give anything away. But I knew going in, it was not a romance of any kind but a beautiful journey all the same. And most people won't agree with me, but if you finish the book, maybe you will see the HEA that I saw.
