Lena Sisk ~ Captures your attention from the first chapter to the very last chapter. Very intriguing on what's coming next; so many twists and turns. Can't stop thinking about the characters even after I finished series one. Anyone who wants to be transported on a roller coaster of emotions, it's a MUST READ. Very addictive.
