My review:
🌟🌟🌟🌟
A Rollercoaster Ride
Four Point Four Stars
The stories explore a lot - love, deceit and the dark side of people. While I liked all the stories, I particularly enjoyed the Vigilante and Katie and Nick Rogers were cute together.
The other stories took me on a rollercoaster of emotions and stayed with me.
Raw honest emotions, some brutal portrayal of human nature and neat twists throughout the stories, made this a worthwhile read.
