Nothing Left to Burn by Heather Ezell

Go to review page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.

I couldn’t finish the book after getting to the cliff hanger regarding Shadow. Skimmed the rest of the book and found there was no resolution. Unnecessary plot point and there’s no need for pointless animal harm in a thriller.
