Review:

Thank  you for providing a digital egalley for me to read and give my honest review.
Unfortunately, this book wasn't really for me
The characters were not fleshed out. They were too immature for me and there was no growth. I had zero connection.
Pacing was slow. And the plot didn't keep me wanting to turn the pages.. The development just was not there. I had to push and push and push to get through it.
Of course there is a cliffhanger ending, but because I didn't like the book I won't be moving on.
