Fast pace and really good. I loved the intense drama and how much backstory you got. i loved how complex the plot was and i was taken off guard. Just when you thought u had it all figured out it shocked you. I really loved the mystery in this novel really keep you guessing until the very end. I was impressed with the structure of this novel and was really impressed with it. I really feel for both sides of this romance and really am so torn. I am really excited to re-read book 3 soon!
