You’ve spilled my blood.
You’ve brought me pain.
But what you’re yet to realize… I’m a fighter.
I’ve been broken before.
I’ve even at one point lost the will to live.
So now you know… this information I gift to you.
I’m ready for you, so do your worst.
Sincerely,
Elenore

Review by Paula:
A short start to become of a amazing series! This book had me intrigued from page one. We meet Elenore a girl who’s life has been hell and even more now. Through it all Elenore is a fighter and won’t give up even when her captor wants the tears and screams. A very unique dark book. I love that we got POV from Elenores and even the Captors, made the book very interesting how these two people don’t even know how much they are alike in a way. The ending though totally shocked me and I’m dying to know what happens next! 5 Stars

been good. I would have sold my soul to the devil himself back then, and I’d
willingly do it now. Give my living essence to breathe, to live on. My entire
childhood was a survival story, and now I have another.
