Thank you, Epic Reads, for the e-ARC.

This is a book that will leave you breathless.

Hits:

- This was a small book that packed a big punch. Though it was short, it was well-developed and didn’t feel incomplete.

- For a good 60%, I was completely engulfed in the plot. It was SO good, and I was absolutely hooked. The author did a great job building the suspense with a steady and consistent flow. I was on the edge of my seat, biting my nails and trying to keep my blood pressure from skyrocketing.

- I loved that the story didn’t waste any time jumping into the suspense and thrill. By the second chapter, I was already saying wtf.

- I appreciated that romance wasn’t made to be a major part of the plot. Although there were moments between Ryan and Megan, they were minimal and weren’t focal points of the story. If there’s one thing I despise, it’s romance added to a suspense/thriller.

Misses:

- The suspense started to fall flat after about 60%, and that steady and consistent flow began to minimize. The plot also started to drag slightly, and the pieces became a bit difficult to keep up with. It’s hard to explain, but it seemed like it ended almost too smoothly. The events that happened from 60% onward fell into place a bit too perfectly and easily. It felt a bit predictable and unrealistic. Having the suspense be so strong and consistent for that much of the story, it was disappointing that it didn’t stay that way until the very end. By setting that tone, I was expecting something more sinister, dark, and twisted to occur, but that didn’t happen. The story definitely had the opportunity and chance to go out with a bang, but it fell short.
Megan was so naïve and gullible, which became extremely annoying and frustrating.

Overall, I had a good time with this read and would recommend it.
