I made the mistake of starting this book right before going to sleep and I instantly got sucked in and was up most of the night reading this story. It captured my attention from the very first page and as the story continued, I fell in love with these two broken characters and their story.

Lex is strong and she has come to accept her life and the fact that everyone always ends up leaving her. You can’t help but love her character and want to cheer for her and want her to find her HEA. Carter is a loner, he has given up on love and has walls up to protect himself. The moment Lex and Carter meet there is an instant connection, even if Carter was kind of a jerk early on. However, Carter does have a sweet side and that does eventually come out. I loved the two of them together and was really rooting for them.

There are plenty of characters throughout this story that cause trouble and you just instantly dislike *cough cough Candace*, then you have characters that I just kind of loved to hate, like Silas (who I am super excited about having his own story). I loved everyone else who worked at the estate with Lex and instantly made her feel welcome there, especially when Carter was being a jerk.

The Estate is emotional, it is angsty and there is plenty of drama throughout the story.
