I made a vow to protect her when we were just kids. First, from the monsters hiding under the bed and then the ones roaming the world freely. My obsession with Dove wasn’t normal, it toed the line on psychotic, but my love for her overshadowed that. I’d killed, destroyed, and hurt those that had done her wrong. I’d watched her for years wanting to claim her but refusing to. I was both her guardian angel and a demon lurking in the shadows. She was mine, even though she didn’t know it yet. I had planned to let her live her life while I watched from afar. Until one night, everything changes, and I’m forced to kidnap her. She doesn’t remember me. She doesn’t know me. She begs me to let her go. But I can’t. I won’t. There are things she doesn’t know. Secrets I cannot tell her, but one thing is clear. I’ll die before I ever let her slip through my fingers. **This book contains dark themes that may be triggers to some readers. Please consider this before reading.**

I’m honestly not sure how to review this. It was better than I expected but then also it was worse than I expected lol. I think what made me really not like the book was how easily everything within the kidnapping could’ve been resolved had he just opened his stupid mouth. Like allllll the times he could’ve been like oh hey I’m William that would’ve fixed a lot of shit but I guess it also would’ve made this a 20 page story? But idk it really kept me out of the story. The reason I say I liked it more than I expected is because once he kinda broke down her walls so to speak it picked up well and I thought finished pretty strong. I think because I like that it finished with her finally knowing he’s William.
Unsure if I’ll finish the duet. I definitely know I’m not in the mood to read it right now.
3/5
