Someone hold me, please?!
K.A. Linde has been delivering some serious attention gripping books and I've been lapping them up like crazy!


Set a year later after Cruel Money, Natalie is now a New York Times Bestselling author. Her dreams are finally coming true! Everything is going according to her plan and she is actually moving on until she receives an email from her agent that she has to go back to the place that ruined her... New York City.
Her plan is straight and simple — complete all her obligations as an author and then hightail out of the city as quickly as possible but all those plans take a backseat when she realizes that she needs this city. This city, the place, the memories and its people are her muses and she needs it to write her next book.

I can't even write this review and go into detail because MAJOR SPOILERS!

I was definitely not expecting this story to go the way it actually went. I was stunned, is too much of an understatement, and I was sitting wondering desperately "WHY?!" and then as the story progressed HOLY SHIZ ON STICKS, PEOPLE! HOLY SHIZ! I mean, what in the freaking world just happened in this book and don't even get me started on the major climax and ending! *gently squeezes Kathrine Van Pelt's neck*


Number one rule of the Upper East Side, Natalie: it is never nothing.



As I mentioned before un my review of Cruel Money, there are some really manipulative and high handed characters, barring a few, but every single of them brings a layer to the story that makes it more rounded and all the more addictive and interesting.

The way this book ended I have some seriously high hopes from the next book, especially from Natalie's character. I, truly want her to go all the Upper East Side on the Upper East Siders and bring them all down.

This series is 100% addictive! With every book, I am left wanting more and with every cliffhanger the need to have the next book in my hand drives me freaking crazy! July really can't come fast enough!
