I could not put this book down. I loved the writing from the first page. I did not move at all until I was finished. This book had it all and more.
In this pulse-pounding ride, packed with murder, mystery, drama, suspense, kidnapping, and passion continue to keep you glued to the pages of this fascinating story. This book held my attention from the beginning—sometimes laughing, sometimes a few tears, and sometimes telling them to stop it! This is definitely a different romance story that you won’t forget. This story is about Lilliana and Jordan—two complete opposites or twisted fate, you decide. Jordan is a bad boy who is messed up and always in trouble, but he has one secret—something he cannot let his brother nor Lilliana know about! Not knowing what to do about some of the other things he is involved with, Jordan always gets advice from his older brother, Blake, who in turn always has his back and tries to protect him. But each bad decision that Jordan makes has risky consequences. Lilliana was blissfully happy with Blake—talking about wedding plans, but also arguing about Jordan (whom she hates)—until a devastating tragedy turns her idyllic life upside down. Then she receives an unexpected text from an unknown stranger, which sets in motion a new set of opportunities and dangers. The stakes are high—she, Joan (Blake and Jordan’s mother), and Jordan could lose everything—what is she to do now! Jordan and Lilliana have a unique—I love to hate you relationship. They will fascinate you and frustrate you at the same time. I was sucked in from the beginning—the angst, the drama, the love/hate relationships, the violence—all made my heart speed up. The emotional roller coaster ride consists of WHAT, WHY, WHAT THE, and OH HELL NO! I wasn’t expecting the turn this story took; it has quite an unexpected revelation that may leave you flabbergasted but it is jaw-dropping good! Lyssa Cole delivered an emotional ride where guilt gives way to determination and as hate transforms to love. The book will pique your interest and draw you in from the beginning to the very end. I would highly recommend this book!
I thought that this book was truly stunning. This is a book that is fueled purely on emotions and when I say emotions I mean of all kinds. The good ones, the bad ones and yes, even the ugly ones are all represented and trust me when I say they are combined into a powerful mixture that will leave your mind blown and your heart reeling. A read that is as beautiful as it is poignant, this is a romance that is not to be missed.
I know that most authors love to keep readers guessing. Most don’t get there with me anymore because if how much I read but Lyssa Cole got me with this one. The emotions that came through the pages hit me hard. And I never expected what happened. I felt everything from anger to passion to hate to love. And such a beautifully comical ending. Highly recommend.
I am totally blown away with this story which is this gifted author at her best! This is a beautifully written story which is an emotional roller coaster throughout with a twist of fate and when tragedy strikes a series of emotional events is unleashed, such as heartbreak, grief, hatred, and love. I was totally captivated throughout this epic tale, and I highly recommend for all readers.
What you think starts out as a love story between Lilliana and Blake ends up being so much more when the reader gets a taste of Blake’s brother Jordan. Tragedy strikes and this sets off a turn of events that I did not see coming. But between hatred and mistrust to lust and them love, Lyssa Cole takes the reader on a wild ride. Filled with great characters and a storyline that has more twists and turns than a roller coaster this was a wonderful read. This was my first book by this author but will not be my last.
What a great read! The characters were so well developed, as was the storyline. I felt completely immersed with the characters and just couldn’t put it down. I really enjoyed thinking I knew what was going to happen but then being wrong. Once you read the first few pages, you’ll be sucked in too!
Talk about a twist of fate. They say to expect the unexpected but, Lil can’t even fathom that. She can’t even stand Jordan. This book sucked me in right from the very beginning. Another amazing book by the talented Lyssa.
A compelling and very interesting read! It is a fast pace, action packed page turner that grabs your attention and holds steady from beginning to end. The characters are well developed and believable with amazing chemistry between them. The twists and turns, ups and downs, emotional turmoil, suspense, danger, murder, secrets, passion, deception, and more make for one incredible and exciting read that will keep you turning the pages. Definitely recommended!

Talk about an emotional rollercoaster ride!! I am a fan of this author so I could hardly wait to read this book, and I wasn’t disappointed. My heart broke for Lillian and her horrible loss. Her and Blake really had something special.
She was in love with Blake and his brother Jordan was always causing trouble. When Blake dies, she must go on the run with Jordan but she did not expect to fall for him. good read and romance

I loved the idea of the story! I loved the relationship that developed between Jordan and Lilianna by the end of the book. Jordan was very protective and very alpha, I loved this.
I felt though, even with an amazing storyline, that it fell short. It felt like we jumped very fast in things that should have taken a while. We really didn’t get to see that romantic buildup between Jordan and Lilianna. It just seemed like we quickly jumped from her hating him with everything she had to her dreaming and fantasizing about him to them being intimate. I also thought the trouble the had was dismissed really fast and easy, after there being so much buildup about it in the beginning.
Again I loved the idea of the story and the story itself but I would have just liked to see more to it. It wasn’t a story that could be done quickly.
