Sophia Cova lived a quiet, normal life, shadowed in sadness after the loss of her parents in a tragic airline accident. With her older brother being her only living relative and her anchor, Sophia is sure she’s destined for a brighter future. But that was until she was taken.
Stolen from her mundane, orderly life, she was drugged, and woke to every woman’s worst nightmare.
With only four grimy basement walls and a rancid mattress, she loses her sense of time, and preserves what’s left of her dignity by hurtling herself into the safety of her mind. The men, the beatings, they come and go with no reaction, until she hears one word that sends an arctic chill through her body. Sold.
On the eve of Sophia’s bidding, at one of the largest sexual slavery rings in the world, all hell breaks loose in the mansion of horrors. Gunfire and screams erupt all around her, as panic rises.
Snatched by one monster only to be taken by another, Sophia slowly starts to learn that not everything is as it seems. When secrets unravel, and the twisted game of cat and mouse ensues, The Puppeteer pulls his favorite strings and chaos brews.
Lives are lost while the clock ticks, and only time will tell who will be killed next…

This is one of the most hardest reviews I'm going to have to write up, so much happens in this book, but one thing that stands above it all is the darkness you get thrown into, go into this being aware of that aspect because this author does not hold back..I'll try and keep this as spoiler free as I can.
So here goes..Straight away we’re thrown into the dark and gritty situation Sophia finds herself in, captured and held in a dingy basement, brutalised beyond anything she could’ve imagined, flayed, scared beyond belief. Repeated words racing through her mind, “why me?” It's like I'm stuck in a bad dream, and no matter how hard I try, I can't wake up.
Twenty-four year old Sophia has lived relatively like a hermit, she keeps to herself, she’s never in trouble, works two jobs, and is a full time student. But she's always cloaked in sadness after losing both her parents at the age of thirteen tragically in a plane crash, leaving her brother Garrett, to raise her. He's her one constant in life, the only person she can rely on, the only person she loves beyond belief.
The night she's to be brought onto a stage to be sold is when all chaos breaks loose, murder and mayhem everywhere, she's barely hanging on by a thread, and it's beyond her wildest dreams that she's been saved.
This point right here is where lies become uncovered, a love like no other is found, soul mates clinging to each other in secrecy and all the feels in the world will come rushing at you.
So here's how the story goes, straight away your thrown into the point where she's been captured, it's dark, it's gritty, it's not glossed over, it's right there in your face with no escape unless you stop reading, but who in their right mind would do that?! Hello!! Not me!!
Then your lulled into a false sense of security, all loved up, all the feels, never wanting it to end.
BUT end it does BOOM!! A twist that had even me in shock and then I'm faced with one of the most biggest cliffys I've fallen over in a long time.. GAH why oh why do I do this to myself!!
Bugger me so the countdown and stalking begins for the next release!!
