Before you visit the Very Wicked Things, stop in and see where it all started in the Very Wicked Beginnings… Ilsa Madden-Mills takes up back to see where things started between Cuba and Dovey before you dive into the Very Wicked Things that happen at the Briarcrest Academy.Two tortured souls from the beginning. One has never had and one has never needed or wanted. But avoiding love. But destined to be together. Dovey wasn’t rich, she didn’t live on the good side of town. She had nothing and most days that included food. But she had dreams and aspirations. She wanted to become someone she could be proud of. She wanted to make something of her life and she wanted to get out of this place where she lived.He had everything money could buy. The nice car, the great house, the amazing amenities that life could give him. But he would never have the love of a little girl again. And he would never have the same level of motherly love again.Complete opposites in everyway, this is how their story began.Ilsa Madden-Mills just touched my heart with these two characters. They are so strong independently of each other, but for very different reasons. He only wanted one thing, to add her to his collection. She only wanted one thing, her forever.This is the beginning of their story, but it is in no way anything close to the end. It provided great insight and background on the two characters of Very Wicked Things and I found myself with tears in my eyes more than once while reading this. It was touching and beautiful and made of so many complex situations that you just have the feeling that things may never work for these two. The odds certainly are bit ub their favor.I loved this prequel and found it to be the perfect tie in needed to go to Very Wicked Things!*I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review
