I had a feeling about part of the twist and I was right! BUTTT the why, when and how?! Monica just blows away her thrillers and it was sooooo good!

Excellent book about a woman's past and all the shades or people in her past, so twisty, and so extremely well written. The book really kept me wanting more.

This book hooked me from the beginning. I was grateful for a fervent plot that built tension throughout the novel. There were a few twists I didn’t see coming!

this is monica arya's second thriller. i would categorize it as a domestic, psychological thriller with a mix of romance as well. there were so many highs and lows, several twists and turns. i did NOT expect the ending. i loved sage's internal monologue. i also loved serena's cameo (a character from her other book). i will say that this book has the cheating trope which normally i don't enjoy. however it pretty much made the story what it is, and was written quite well.

Honestly, I am disappointed with this book. I felt like the author could’ve done a better job developing the relationship between Sage and Archer, because to me it just seemed like their connection was purely physical. The end of the book felt very rushed, like all the important stuff happened in the last 2 chapters. For me it was predictable and even with the twists at the end, it felt a little cliché. Not to mention there were SO many editing/grammar errors and sentences that didn’t make sense that it started to get annoying. I wouldn’t recommend this book.

Wow. I was not expecting this book to be so good. Not a single complaint. I’ve read one other book by Monica and did not like it so I didn’t have high hopes starting this one but I was so wrong. The plot twists were insane and the storyline was so intense. A fast paced book that kept you interested. A great book that connected several pieces together. I also liked how Monica told you some major plots early then included them in more detail later in the book.
