Pretty Lost Dolls is even darker, more twisted, and full of jaw dropping moments. I really didn’t know what was going to happen next. I ended up reading the whole book in one go, and now I’m left begging for the next.
Jade is in the last place she ever thought she would be again. Will survive hell for a second time?
Another amazing read. Very dark and disturbing. The mind of Benny drags Jade back into his world again where Macy is her own kind of scary. Kept me on the edge to the last page
My mind is buzzing with everything I have read over the past couple of days. I didn’t think that Pretty Stolen Dolls could have been improved on, but this second book is mind blowing! I am not going to be able to hear a certain rhyme without feeling the chills that I now associate with it. This story is compelling reading and I am desperate to continue the rest of the books in the series.
I didn’t talk about the characters in my review of Pretty Stolen Dolls and I can’t not leave this review without mentioning how incredible Jade is. What she goes through I don’t ever want to think about again, so instead I’ll remember her strength and determination. She is amazing.
Benny. If you’ve already read the first book before reading this review then I’m certain we all share the same views about him. I feel that his character has been portrayed incredibly by these two authors, and the closing scenes of this story have left me sitting here with conflicted feelings towards him…. which I never expected.
Pretty Lost Dolls is told in multiple POVs and I’m so very thankful that I got to experience everything through the eyes and minds of Jade, Dillon and Benny. It gave me a much greater understanding of their story which greatly enhanced my reading experience.
There is so much that I want to say and discuss but I’m not going to say anything further other than if you enjoy dark thrillers then this is a must read!! I have loved every mind blowing, chilling, twisted and heartbreaking moment.
This story is an excellent collaboration from K Webster and Ker Dukey – one that had me on the edge of my seat throughout. Pretty Lost Dolls deserves every one of the five dark twisted stars that I can award it. Incredible!!
What a cliffhanger! I had gotten so comfortable that the storyline was drawing to a close, I didn’t think of the possibility that it might not be! This series is so haunting. I have no idea where it is going to lead.
If you thought the first book was dark and twisty, just wait until you get your hands on this one! I’ve been sucked in to this world and I can’t stop reading no matter how crazy and fucked up it is. The best word to describe this book….mindfuck!!! It’s disturbing, crazy as hell, so wrong but the story seduces you that you just can’t stop. I finished this book within hours because I was so possessed by the characters, the torment, the story that when I read the ending I was dumbfounded, I needed more answers so I started book 3….. further down the rabbit hole I go!
Absolutamente magnífico. .. love it
*Must read Pretty Stolen Dolls (book one) before diving into this one. We were left with a chilling cliffhanger, and this book picks right up from there. Back in her prison, Detective Jade is not going to let Benny win. Last time she was there she was a child. This time round, she is a woman… a woman who knows her captor and has the strength to fight like never before. She is still set to find and free her sister, whom she had to leave behind when she escaped the first time. Now is is ready to play Benny’s game, knowing she has someone out there who also has the strength and means to help her. This book is just as twisted as book one. We get Benny’s POV in this book, so we get inside his head a little more. It alternates between POVs, so we get a little of everyone. Still the explicit sexual content. Still the horror and violence. Same triggers in this book as that as well. And surprise surprise… it ends with another cliffhanger! Captivating characters. There are some surprise twists. There is also a little more hope in this book, as the detectives are getting more clues on their hunt. This book/series is intended for mature readers. Not for the faint of heart.
First off – if you haven’t read Pretty Stolen Dolls, it’s a must. Second – triggers…if you are sensitive to captivity, kidnapping, psychopaths, sexual assault, and abuse please tread carefully because this book is loaded with them. This story is not a light hearted romance – it’s dark, gritty and filled with so much suspense that you will be white knuckling your kindle and wanting to order pizza for the family so you don’t have to stop reading it (don’t judge because I did just that ).
K Webster and Ker Dukey are both wonderfully talented authors that make you crush any box you may think in. In this second novel of their Pretty Little Dolls series, we are thrown back into Jade’s world. This time though, we get know Benny – his past is revealed and we learn why he is the way he is. We get reunited with Jade’s little sister Macy, who Benny has kept all these years, as well. Jade is as strong as ever and Dillon is even more alpha, protective and swoon worthy. This time, Jade has a plan and Dillon is willing to go to any and every length to keep her safe while concentrating on taking Benny down for good.
You guys – this is one the best psychological mind screw suspenses I have ever read. Some parts were still a little predictable, but I didn’t care because I was so connected with Jade and Dillon along with being overly curious about Benny’s past. This does end with a cliffhanger and I am getting ready to dive in to the next because I am dying to see what happens the next go around.
Pretty Lost Dolls is the continuation of Pretty Stolen Dolls and we pick up right where the latter left off. We’re still in our heroine’s mind but K&K allow us to peek into Benny’s as well. I’m not going to give anything away, but let me tell you that you do not want to miss this book! If you’ve read the first one I’m sure that you need no encouragement at all because these ladies know how to keep you on your toes while turning up the heat! If you haven’t read the first one you have to in order to understand Pretty Lost Dolls. 5 stars without a doubt. Absolutely amazing book!!
Another fantastic book from K Webster and Ker Dukey! This series has been a dark, dirty, twisted ride from the beginning and Pretty Lost Dolls has added so much more! We have the same characters from the first book and more are added that I fell in love with. I especially loved Brent and Cassy. We see more of Benny’s tortured past and what has made him the man he is now. I still don’t like him, but his actions are more understandable. I love Dillon and Jade. Dillon may be my new BBF. I have to keep reading this series and find out the rest is going to play out!
Just when you thought the story couldn’t get anymore twisted, Dukey & Webster shocks you by doing just that. This series has been a complete mindf*&k so far and I love the multiple POV. You get a glimpse into the mind of a monster. Sit down, get comfortable and buckle up for one hell of a ride through a horror show.
The Disturbed Duo have left us all with flapping jaws as they ride off into the sunset. Damn these women!! I didn’t think it was possible to top Pretty Stolen Dolls, but Pretty Lost Dolls is better than you can imagine. This book is so well written it is in my top reads of 2016!
The dynamic development of these characters is how these authors make the readers clamor for more of the bad guy and empathize with Jade. As a reader, I am extremely satisfied with the book and the ending, BUT I WANT MORE BENNY!!!!
The horror of not only being kidnapped once, but twice by the same monster is inconceivable. Benny brings his A-game, he wants his dirty little doll back, and is determined to make sure she realizes that she is his. You almost can see Benny’s mind fracturing as the story goes on.
~Momma’s crazy infects me, breaking me down and remolding me, reassembling me. The boy who have only ever know this depravity becomes consumed by it.~
And Macy is so far gone that her level of crazy is off the freaking charts!! Benny has kept his broken little doll and she has an agenda of her own.
~Where has my little Macy gone?~
Dillon is in for a fight to get Jade back; is their love enough to keep Jade strong and withstand Benny’s abuse?
~Benny abused my body. He tried to scar my soul. But my heart was never his to fuck with. Dillon owns it now.~
The level of depravity is colossal and the secrets that we learn along the way are explosive. These two have turned an innocent little nursery rhyme into something wicked and immoral, and I love it completely. I will never be able to hear that rhyme without thinking about Benny and his dollies.
Ahmahgah this story is just soooo crazy. I couldn’t look away! It was a great conclusion and it kept me on my toes. It’s all kinds of wrong but dang, that dark and twisty stuff is pretty good. How do they come up with the story line? Do they plot that shit out over clouple bottles of wine? Because I would have to drink a lot, and a shot or 4, after plotting a story like this. Kudos for the crazy ride.
This series has been one of the most intense, edge of your seat suspenseful mind screws I have ever read. Book two carries on from where book one left us hanging. I am so glad I waited until now to read them as I don’t think I would have been able to contain myself waiting for the concluding part.
It’s dark, twisted and sick. I totally embraced this book devouring it in a day. The family was banished from talking to me! The book covers topics such as kidnapping, rape, physical and psychological abuse, serial killings. It had everything thrown at it. But if you’ve read book one you will already know all of this and if you’ve made it to book two you’ll know what I’m saying when I say I haven’t read anything like this before. Truly amazing. I finished the book on a WTF!
Told from multiple POV’s this time, the book was again fast paced. It was great to get inside Benny’s head. I almost started to feel sorry for him, he truly was a complex character. The twists and turns kept coming at me like a tsunami. The plot of this book was exceptional and well explained, no stone left unturned. I cannot praise this series highly enough. Just read them. They will blow your mind.
I look forward to reading more by these authors, I really love their dark and deadly minds. Utterly fantastic. Kudos to Ker Dukey and K Webster you girls make an amazing team.
First off you have to prepare yourself for this book, then you need to hold on because you are in for the roller coaster ride of your life!! Benny is absolutely CRAZY and proves it over and over again!! If you haven’t read Pretty Stolen Dolls yet, you really need to before you dive into this one!! This book is your worst nightmare coming true and it’s happening on the pages in front of you!!! I won’t tell you anything about this book because you need to experience every heart pounding, soul crushing word for yourself!! I was “all in” from the first word until the last and it stayed with me long after I was finished. I had a “book hangover” that had me thinking about this review for days!! So I can’t recommend this book enough, but I have a feeling if you read Pretty Stolen Dolls you don’t need me to tell you how awesome this book is to get you to read it. So find a comfortable place to get lost in this book and get ready to go through so many emotions you won’t know what hit you!!! Enjoy!!
‘Pretty Lost Dolls’ picks up right where ‘Pretty Stolen Dolls’ left off…..And my lord what a ride!!!
Jade again is living her worst nightmare. Taken by the monster that took her when she was just fourteen years old.
Benny has finally captured his dirty little doll and this time he is not letting go. He will go to any length to keep her, even if it means torturing those who are close to Jade.
Could it be Dillon the new love of Jade’s life?
Could it be her parents that Jade simply adores?
Or could it be Jade’s ex fiance, Bo?
Who will be Benny’s next victim?
What length will the deranged Benny go to keep Jade in his clutches?
And Macy?
What happens when Jade comes face to face with her sister that was taken all those years a go?
Will Macy save Jade?
Or will Macy destroy Jade?
Who’s side will Macy be on?
Again guys what a brilliant read. I couldn’t put this novel down. Drawn to the sadistic and delusional Benny (yes I know it’s all kinds of abnormal) he had me holding my breath at every turn. Such a mind manipulator half the time I couldn’t keep a coherent thought, he had me all kinds of twisted mentally.
Jade….I just loved her strength and ability to just hold on.
Macy….This girl, what a delusional human being. This chick had me simply transfixed.
Dillon….Jade’s night in shining armor had me cheering for him at every turn to save the love of his life.
These authors again absolutely nailed this novel. Such a raw, confronting, sickening and delusional read that left me wanting more.
How these authors have both managed to capture me with such torture is beyond me.
Sheer brilliance.
I cannot wait for the next installment.
5 gruesome stars.
Two constants in life – Death and Taxes .
Third NEW constant- Books by Kristi and Kerry . They are terrific , guaranteed 5 star books. This one goes a mile further. How do they top their last books, is beyond me !!
I’m not even analysing…I’m just enjoying the riiiiiide!!
Anyway Benny is anxious again. His Dolly Left him and he’s angry, frustrated, lonely and vengeful. He wants his Perfect Little Doll back. His perverse love is psychotic in intensity but it’s love just the same. He has to sacrifice Stupid Fucking Dolly and torture his Broken Dolly for it, but hey , true love requires sacrifice….doesn’t it ?
I really felt for Benny in this book. He has chaos raging inside him . An offspring of monsters and victim of horrors, he had nothing to love except his Perfect Little Dolly.
I can’t tell you anything or Kristi will feed me to Benny;)
the writing is so taut and thrilling, my heart was thumping the entire time. Benny is a strong contender in Hero#1 race beside Gabe . That’s how good it’s written.
Miss Polly had a Dolly who was sick, sick, sick
“My dirty little doll. She bested me and broke free from the chains of my love.”
After re-reading and processing my emotions, I realized that I needed to update my review. I enjoyed this book too much and it gets better every time you read it. Jade has to experience Benny’s torture again and I find myself in a complicated relationship with him. I really tried not to like him but ended up falling under his spell. I did still have the urge to hurt him a lot of the time.
Macy is just all kinds of crazy and I wanted her to die throughout the whole book. Dillion is still a strong and loving man, perfect for Jade. The picture part was brilliant and it made a lot of things click within the two books. At first I wasn’t happy with how Jade handled Benny in the end but the epilogue left me excited and ready for the next chapter. Now time to read Pretty New Doll.
4.5 stars
“I may have been free from my cell, but I’d always be caged inside the walls of my mind-where he is still master.”
