No One Left to Tell by Karen Rose

3.0

As usual, Karen Rose kept me guessing with action and twists all the way to the end. Considering the length of the book this one only covers a week or so. There’s a lot of action and pacing is great. These books are heavy and this one is no different. It seemed like everyone of the main characters has had this horrible, tragic life. I just wanted one character that’s had at least an ok life.

I liked both Grayson and Paige; they’re both so loyal and considerate and honorable. Though their attraction is immediate, I still found myself believing in their feelings for each other and I was happy to see them together. They each have had hard lives and they deserve happiness.

I loved the Carter family and hope to see more of them in the future as well as more of Stevie. This book really made things rough on Stevie and I want to see her find someone to lean on after everything she’s been through. As a side note I found myself strangely captivated by Adele and Darrin’s story. After each time they appeared I wanted to come back to them. I don’t know what about them was so magnetic but I would have loved more about them.

I guess this isn’t a bad thing but the list of all those involved just kept getting bigger and bigger. I feel like each book Rose has written is trying to top the previous one and it’s resulting in these huge conspiracies. I still like them but I feel like I have to take some time before starting the next one.
