This book was heartbreaking and traumatizing and beautiful all at the same time.
I went into this book semi blind. Knowing that it was a little messed up. But there was nothing that could have prepared me for what I actually read. Going back and reading some of the reviews, I see a ton of 1⭐️ and then a ton of 5 ⭐️ not a whole lot in between. People either love this book or they hate it.
Cora is out celebrating her sisters birthday and ends up having her wallet stolen. Not able to get an answer from any of her other friends she reaches out to her archnemisis Dean, who is also her sister’s fiance for a ride.
Next thing she knows she’s locked in a man’s basement with Dean in chains as well.
After years of going back and forth at each other they now have to work together to find a way out. What they don’t know is that their abducted already has a plan in place for them!
This book made my jaw drop from the very beginning. The things that happened were unimaginable. My heart ached for their situation.
There were a few negatives. The FMC was sooo frustrating. I loved Dean but Cora just made me so angry!
Overall though any negatives didn’t matter. I didn’t want to put this book down. I couldn’t stop thinking about it and it made both my heart and stomach lurch!! Def recommend!
