Adeline has been taken. Revenge against Zade, to be sold into the skin trade. Her price tag directly proportionate to Zades enemies hatred of him.
This book is the epitome of "touch her and I'll burn the world down." It's brutal and raw and makes me want to ask the author, "who hurt you?"
It's very tough to read. Graphic descriptions of violent r*pe pepper the pages. I knew this going into it. It was the reason I put off reading these books for so long. I thought I was prepared by reading Haunting Adeline, and now I know that was nothing. Sunshine and roses compared to the barbaric onslaught that is this twisted tale.
Trigger warnings can not adequately prepare one for the bombardment of degradation that follows these characters. Red rooms, barbaric rituals, mutilation, and r*pe spread through the pages like a sinful virus. I covered my mouth because I couldn't bring myself to cover my eyes. I needed to know the ones I was falling in love with would survive.
The Adeline chapters are so depraved and depressing that during them, I long to get away, to Zanes' side. Once there, I'm so worried about what is happening to Addy,all I'd want was to get back to her. It became a vicious battle that I couldn't tare myself away from.
“If you’re my death, then I’m your fucking lifeline.”
As much of a hard time as I had liking Zade in this first book I fell in love with him in this one. I now understand why people refer to him as a "book boyfriend." Not only is he the embodiment of tall dark and broody, but he also is a modern-day batman. Saving women a children from the evil clutches of the dark market, abuse, and death. He would go to the end of the world to save Addy as he shows again and again.
"As if conjured straight out of a Rob Zombie film, she steps out of her bedroom door,"
Sibby....the comedic relief. She is unhinged in all the best possible ways. A creepy murderous living doll. Every time she graced the pages, I found myself giggling right along with her.

This book is not for the faint of heart. A lot of triggers in this book. If you can’t stomach rape, human trafficking or just killing this book is not the one for you.
It is way darker and more triggering then the first one

The writing and character development were extremely well done, and the book felt well paced and the level of detail was tangible. From a writing and quality point of view, this book is excellent. Although I can’t say I enjoyed it. The first half was extremely graphic and it was unsettling at best.
