As she builds a life for herself, she is swept up into a glamorous lifestyle where she married the handsome billionaire Ned Hawthorne. But then, Amelie wakes up in a pitch-black room, not knowing where she is. Why has she been taken? Who are her mysterious captors?

Paris is back with a gripping new suspense novel.

The story only picked up at 50%. 50 fucking percent.
And it's so messed up. The characters are so... plain and unlikable. No dynamics whatsoever. I was so ready to give up at 30%, but I pulled through. God, it was horrendous. It was torture.
Never again. One book from this author will last me for a lifetime.
Got me out of a reading slump for sure. Was so fast paced, loved the short alternating time line chapters. About the last hundred pages in part two I dropped my rating from a 4 to a 3.5. The plot just became too convoluted and the “big bad” and their reasoning was confusing.
