This is a book that sat on my shelf for awhile.  I would be between books, pick it up, not be able to get into it and something else would come along.  Well, a few days ago I picked this one back up and did NOT PUT IT DOWN!!!  It picks up very quickly and is full of surprises!  My first experience with this author will definitely not be my last!!  There is also an excerpt from her new 2018 release at the end! 2018!!!  I don't think I can wait that long!!!

Wow I had no idea how much I would absolutely love this book.  I've had a lot of DNF lately and this book was a great surprise.  Really it shouldn't have because I usually devour anything and everything from this author and trust me The Maiden is that good.  It's dark with some really twisted people but for me that's what I look for.  I love books that make me uncomfortable.  The Maiden did just that.  I love how Celia writes these crazy little worlds that you know nothing about but come to life on the pages.  The Cloister is a scary place that would make most people run for their lives.  But Delilah does none of that.  She's strong and unexpectedly good.  I can't wait to see what happens between her and Adam in The Prophet.  I highly recommend this book.  A must read!!!!

OMG!  This story was amazing and such an unexpected find.  For months I have been waiting to come across a book that I connected with.  This one checked all the boxes:  an intense enduring love, heartbreak, oh so sexy, and laugh out loud moments.

Before picking up this book, I had been going through a reading rut. Nothing was wowing me lately and I needed something really gripping  something that I wouldnt want to put down. I saw some really good reviews on this book and decided it sounded different enough to maybe pull me out of the rut.

And I was not disappointed! This book was surprising in so many ways. There was suspense, romance, erotica, not to mention it was a serious mind f***. I was clinging to my Kindle because I couldn't put it down. I was completely entranced by the story and this authors writing.

Naomi is involuntarily committed to a mental hospital because she has had a huge breakdown. She doesnt think she belongs there, but she has to be able to tell her story to the doctors in order to be diagnosed and released. Her new Dr. convinces Naomi that she can be trusted and Naomi finally gives in and starts telling her story.

Her story is heartbreaking and gut-wrenching at times. It will not be for everyone because it deals with a very horrible subject matter that the faint of heart may not be able to handle.

The story takes you back in time to when Naomi was a child and then to just 6 months before she was committed to the hospital. You get to meet Naomis best friend Lana, the guy shes crushed on since she was a kid - Lachlan, and her latest love  Max, and how they are all connected. It is all building you up to a shocking reveal at the end.

I had my own doubts about Naomi and her story and there were times I thought I had her figured out  but in the end I was completely surprised by the outcome. This story blew me away with the spectacular writing and the authors ability to get into my head. I will be thinking about this book for a long time.

Totally unexpected.  I loved the first book but I loved this one even more.  Even though it ends in a cliffhanger, I am excited to read the next book in the series.  I never would have imagined where Ms. Le Carre was going with this story but I was pleasantly surprised and stunned.  I won't spoil it for anyone else so if you want to know,  buy this book.  I promise you won't be disappointed.

Oh. My. God. This book is AMAZING!!!

Honestly, I doubt that I would've ever read this book because I'm one of those people (<------ hate to admit it) that judges books by their covers quite a bit. Anyways, when I first received this book in exchange for an honest review, I was a little like "Oh I hope I like this". Once I started it, I didn't want to put it down. I was up half the night reading! I absolutely LOVED it!
I can't even say how much I recommend this book, just please take my word for it! It has loss, love, betrayal, suspense, with twist and turns like crazy! Every time you think you have it figured out, you realize you don't know squat!
Please read this book and let me know what you think because I think is A-MA-ZING!!!

WHAT. EVEN. WAS. THIS. BOOK????

I am taken aback by how much I loved it. During this Gallagher Girls binge reading I have been updating some of my friends in group texts and I didn't have any time to update them during this book, because I was too busy crying over EVERYTHING.

The friendships, plot, characters, family dynamics--everything gets bigger and better and I JUST COULDN'T GET ENOUGH. It was amazing and I am very eager to get to the final book.

I did guess some things beforehand though [i.e. that the necklace was the key, that this song was maybe used for a hypnosis (especially after Catherine started humming it in the caves); I had guessed earlier in book 2 that Dr. Steve was the bad guy and lmao he truly showed his colours in this book. I MEAN??? NO ONE WHO LETS AND WANTS THEMSELVES TO BE CALLED DR. STEVE CAN BE DECENT, RIGHT? Also, I guessed about Preston's dad, because it was just to "convenient"] but idk all of these things didn't take away from the book, it was actually hella lot fun to get confirmation about some of my theories.

One more thing: WHY HAVEN'T THESE BOOKS BEEN MADE INTO MOVIES YET??????

This series was so good and unexpected. I have read almost every thing from this author except the Breaking Point series, and never expected any thing about vampires. This needs to be made into a movie!!!

A friend recommended this and I honestly didn't expect much.  Boy was I surprised.  Amazing character development, a great story, and fresh writing that reminds me of why I love to read (which sadly is not always the case these days).  Well done and I'm so glad there will be more in this series.  Can't wait for the next installment.  Highly recommend!!!!!

Well what the hell I was so blown away I was like wtf just happened here.  One of my favorite reads this year can't wait for the next book. I was talking about this book days after I read it

This book is not at all how I thought it would go. This is far from you typical romance books, it is way better! This book challenges you emotionally and pulls you to the bottom of the emotional pit where these characters are currently living. There were points in this book I was crying over the characters and what happen to them, I was also just mesmerized by the sheer strength these characters showed! What a book! It was so good and if you are ready for an emotional roller coaster then this is a must read!!

Oh WOW!!!!  I wasn't expecting the book I just read!  First let me say I got so caught up so fast, I had a hard time keeping everything straight. I even went to my 18 yr olds daughters room, woke her up, to tell everything that was happening......and that before I even got to chapter 5!!!!!!

I was a bit confused about why Eleanor did what she did In The beginning of the book.  In fact it took a while before I actually did get it figured out. :)
Bayard is the BEST!  Super patient!!  Super understanding!!!! Super stubborn!!!!  Just all around SUPER!  I love his interaction with Father Crispin :)

I simply love Eleanor and Bayard!  Really!!!

Now I'm sad bc I have to wait till the fall to read the next book in the series!

I loved this book!! The description of the book didn't do it justice. At first I wasn't sure how I felt about the main character, but I was fascinated nonetheless...and had to know what would happen. This was an absolute rollercoaster, I had no clue where the story was going half the time and I loved the not knowing! If you're having any doubts about getting this book (like I did), take it from me. Get it, you will not be disappointed it was much better than I anticipated. :)
