Book Trailer:



(I will not be posting any spoilers! Only opinion for the sake of those of us who love to have our first look at a book be untainted by foreknowledge.)

I loved reading this novel. Shamira is amazing and someone who can be hard to relate to while still being someone anyone can relate to. All of us have been outcasts at one point or another, all of us have felt how hard it is to be in a situation where something terrible is happening but there is just no way you feel you can help. She shows that even if you are blind and all of the odds seem to be against you, if you step up to the plate you just might hit a home run.

L.M. Preston hit a home run with this novel. You have suspense, humor and heartbreaking moments with deep emotion all wrapped up in one amazing book. I will admit, at first I wasn’t sure I would like it, I can be a bit of a pessimist but I LOVED it! This novel also deals with something very read but giving it a fiction surrounding, it deals with kidnapping, something that happens on this earth every single day and what it can do to the people who are left behind or taken. She weaves an amazing story which swept me off my feet and I am just not sure I will ever be the same again.





Would I suggest you read it:

YES! DETINATELY! This is an amazing read. While I was hesitant all my hesitancy disappeared when I met Shamira, the kick … ummm… to be kid friendly I will say rear, main character who will have you laughing, crying, screaming and possibly even wanting to go out there and make a difference in the small ways that any human being can. I LOVED IT!
