Well, once again, HD Carlton has written a beautiful story that will live rent-free in my mind for quite some time. This wasn't just a love story it was a story about love......the passion, head over heels, true soul mates, take your breath away, kinda love. 

“I would follow you anywhere, Genevieve. If you were standing at the edge of the earth and wanted to fall, I would only stop you long enough to take hold of your hand so I could go with you. There isn’t a life where I wouldn’t be your phantom, or a death where I wouldn’t be your reaper.”

Gigi and Ronaldo's story was a heartwrenching, beautiful journey about finding your true soul mate. Gigi had a life that she thought was what she wanted but realized that she wasn't truly living. Being a mother was what she loved and wouldn't trade it for anything, Sera was her world. John, on the other hand, that man deserved everything he got. Needless to say, I was not his biggest fan!!! Ronaldo, wow, that man was  swoon-worthiness at its finest with a side of dirty talking perfection!

“Do you have any idea how hard it is to only love you in the dark when you deserve to be loved in the light?”

“Now crawl to me, mia rosa.”

Oh, this book is definitely a MUST read for those Cat & Mouse duet lovers! Being able to read more of Gigi & Ronaldo's story made my heart happy, and the journal entries.... icing on the cake! Plus, there's a little treat at the end that you don't want to miss!!! Trust me you NEED this book!!!
