Concrete.
Next to me. In front of me. Behind me. Below me.
It mocks me.
My prison.
My hell.
I don’t know who I am. Where I am. How long I’ve been here.
Decades? Centuries?
It’s felt like an eternity.
For all the unknowns, one truth has grown stronger with the torturous passing of time…
I wish I was dead.
Or, at least, I did until I heard her.
She gives me hope. A purpose.
Freedom.
I follow her, soaking in everything she does and growing more dependent. Never in my long life have I seen anyone so perfect.
Now I just have to find a way to make her hear me.
And being able to see me would probably help, too…
Warning: Recommended for readers 18+ due to strong adult language, themes, and lovin’ so good, it must be magicks.
5 ‘ Holy mother of MYSTERIES’ Stars
THIS BOOK! Seriously, this book will knock your socks off! In the most paranormal and surprising of ways! It sure did to me and I loved every second of it! Refreshing, funny, smoking hot and just BRILLIANT!
I’ll do something very Un-Gi like here and keep it very short because for once in a very, very long time – if ever – I’ll tell you you need to go into this gem that is Styx ABSOLUTELY BLIND on all things. You seriously just need to know you will no doubt be shocked, wowed and most of all fall in LOVE with these characters and stories and in the end you will be, like myself, begging the author for book two. And three. And four! That’s how brilliant this story is!
“In all my time on this earth, I’ve never seen anything or anyone as beautiful as you. I could look at you for all eternity and still feel as though I were seeing you for the first time.”
Believe me when I say that the DISCOVERY of the storyline, and specially the characters and the mystery surrounding their identity is half the enjoyment of this book. Of course, I can say that Layla Frost’s hilariously funny heroine’s thoughts and lines are absolutely present as is Ms. Frost’s trademark deliciously Alpha hero, even if an unconventional one like this one – but normal is just SO overrated, right?! LOL – as jealous/possessive as they come, and the captivating and thrilling development that added with all the mysteries, just completely hook you and make you read this in one sitting.
“Now, never threaten to take away your touch again, or I’ll take that to mean you aren’t as addicted to me as I am to you. I’ll be forced to keep you in bed until we fix that.”
And when ALL is revealed and in the open, you will thank me for going in blind, because I want you to be just as surprised and shocked by the revelation as I was. And I’never surprised by a twist. Never! So kudos to Layla Frost for achieving that! So dive right now, as spoiler-free as humanly possible (believe me, I know the sacrifice, I’m a huge spoiler wh@re myself), and ENJOY all the twists and turns! Absolutely fitting for this Halloween week, and and the mystery appropriate and SO WORTH IT!
A truly unforgettable PNR story, that this PNR lover here can honestly say, like I’ve NEVER read before!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Ps. And yes, I’m already stalking for book two, which I NEED now!!!
“I’d die a million deaths before I let her go.”
ARC kindly provided by the author for an honest review
Layla Frost has always been a rebel. A true badass.
Growing up, Layla used to hide under her blanket with a flashlight to read the Sweet Valley High books she pilfered from her older sister. It wasn’t long before she was reading hidden Harlequins during class at school. This snowballed into pulling all-nighters after the promise of “just one more chapter”.
Her love of reading, especially the romance genre, took root early and has grown immeasurably.
In between reading and writing, Layla spends her free time rocking out(at concerts, on the couch, in the car… Anywhere is a stage if you get into it enough), watching TV(the nerdier the better!), and being a foodie. Though she lives in NY(the state, not the city), she’s an avid Red Sox fan.
