At first I thought that the story was too fast-paced. I've never read a book that put you right in the action without a prologue or a preface, but I soon came to realize that that was exactly why I loved it. There were so many twist and turns that I did not expect what would happen! It was a roller coaster ride that I definitely did not want to end. I loved all the characters and was rooting for Collin from the point I found out what he was. But his betrayal did hurt Ivy and me...but all was not what it seemed. He redeemed himself and all I can say is....I CANNOT WAIT TO START READING THE NEXT ONE!
