All three books were just fantastic, read them in days! Even cried at some parts of the book.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this series! But I cannot be the only person that is absolutely miffed and cheated by noticing that one precious character doesn't have a damn name! Did I miss it? What the hell!

This book. Words fail me. I can’t find any that would do it justice. Gut wrenching, heartbreaking, sickening, incredible. I went through a rollercoaster of emotions, I was angry, I was devastated, I was terrified, I was sick to my stomach, I was desperate, I was broken, I was joyful. This book made me feel everything. This is definitely not a book for the faint hearted, no sir! But if you can stomach the darker parts, this is a brilliant read. Book 3 how ever, makes book 1 look like child’s play, I thought I was broken after book 1, and then book 2, I was crushed. But this book, I did not see it coming. I fully recommend this book, this whole series, and I also wish you the strength to read it

Loved this book from beginning to end - utterly compelling read.
Complex characters, brilliantly twisting storyline and unputdownable!!!

Sublime - an unforgettable story that will leave you praying for more...
I've read both the previous books and loved them, but the author took this book up an entire level.
The timing and pacing in the story are exquisite. I thought I'd reached the climax of the book; I looked down and was only at 40% - where else could the story go? Well, through wave after wave of peril where Lilly faced unimaginable difficulties as she fought to protect her friends and loved ones - mostly at the cost of her own welfare.
To call this a rollercoaster of emotions is unfair because no rollercoaster I've ever been on has delivered the thrills, spills, highs and lows of this book.
Be prepared with a flask of coffee and a couple of boxes of tissues - you'll need them because once you start reading this you'll want to keep going through the night. Oh, consider having a cushion close to hand to muffle your sobs.
It's a book that will stay with you forever.
