Great suspense read. Fast read, keeps you guessing through out the book. Once you think you know who done it, a plot twist smacks you down.

New author for me. I am a avid reader, and this book hard to follow for me. I was hoping that it would get better with the story line. It didn’t for me.

I really enjoyed One By One. With all the twist, I did not see it ending in the way it did. Very good fast read.

I absolutely loved Layla! Could not put it down. It sent my emotions all over the place. I was so angry with character Leeds through out most of the book. I recommend this book to readers who enjoy reading Thrillers and Paranormal.

This book is amazing! I will be honest, it took me a few chapters to get into it. Once the plot twists and I mean TWISTS started, I couldn’t put it down. The who done it kept me on the edge. However, the final few chapters messed with my mind. The last chapter had me wanting to reach into the book and strangle Finn. Great read, definitely recommend.

Great strong badass FMC Evelina. I was hoping for more with the retelling of The Wizard Of Oz in this book. The story line was weak for me. Very strong sexual content.
