"This book had me hooked in the first chapter. Captivating story!"

"Normally, I have a good time with JT Ellison's books, but this one was a struggle for me. I never really got invested, and so much of the story was taken up by details that felt unnecessary."

"She’s a girl from Nashville so I already like it. Claire is full of secrets. She’s engaged to Jack who is also full of secrets. They are getting married in Italy at his family’s castle. Of course he’s rich; it’s a book. Strange things start to happen. Her dress is ruined, people start dying. You find out jacks first wife who supposedly died 10 years ago is back and ready for revenge. She’s lost her mind or so you think. At the end of the book Claire kills Morgan the first wife and takes the role as the head lady of the family. Claire turns out to be shady herself and questions who killed Morgan that night. We hear that she was being chased and falls from the rocks and no one tries to help her and they are glad she’s dead-from Morgan’s perspective. Claire said she will make sure the truth never comes out. Claire was dating a bad boy in high school that robbed a gas station with her as the driver. Her dad picks her up from jail and she’s so mad she grabs the wheel and they wreck. He dies and she carries that guilt but she said killing gets easier and easier every time."

"Ehhhh!! If someone from lifetime decided to write a book, this would be it!!. This book started out so strong and soooo good! I thought it was going to be a banger! And boom! WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED!! LITERALLY!! WHAT THE ACTUALLY HECK!! 400+ pages of complete madness!!!! The history of the island was the only thing cool about this whole story! The family spies lame! Claire lame! Jay lame! His whole family lame! Her whole family lame!! Morgan most definitely lame! Girl, it shouldn't have taken you that long to plot your revenge! After you healed, you could have done that! I kept reading because I just wanted to know how Claire killed her dad! Since her sister Harper hated her so much for it!! Still got a murky picture of that!! And at the end. She likes me. I'm still going to stay and protect my family even if I die young!! LOL MA'MA YOU ARE STUPID!!!! If this book spelled anything out! Is the men in this family use women as pawns!! Nooo thank you!!"
