Synopsis: The lines are blurred between what is real and what isn't, the darkness that was once a place I feared was now a place of safety. If I stayed in the darkness, the hellish reality of what was truly happening no longer seemed real.But I was about to be pulled out from under the consuming blanket of dark shadows, and plunged into the murky depths of my past. I was about to be shown my demons and all it's evil sides, all of it's pain and grief. I could only hope I survive it.
What happens when the world you once knew crumbles and falls at your feet?
Who will find me? Who will save me from my demons?
My dark prince or my white knight...
And will I find myself in the process?
Favourite quote: "You are my sea, and I am addicted to drowning in you. When I fell in love with you, I went in feet first and I never want to come back up for air."
I enjoyed the first book in this series, but there was something about it that didn't make me love it! Well... until I got to the end! The ending of the first book was insane and so unexpected that I couldn't get it out of my head for days after I finished reading it! So to say I was desperate for this book, was an understatement! I definitely preferred this book over the first book! I'm not sure why, but I connected more with the characters in this book than the first book! The plot of this book was about the aftermath of the big secret that was revealed at the end of the first book! I loved every second of reading it! It was so emotional and really tugged at my heartstrings! The plot was also developed on from the first book amazingly! I read this book in two sittings because it hard for me to put down! The plot just drew me right in and even though it was really sad, it was beautiful at the same time! The plot was really dark, but there was light to it at certain times as well! It was full of sadness as well, but it was also about realisation as well! The characters were even more amazing than what they were in the first book! Neva was again the main female character and I loved her in this book! My heart completely went out to her as she tried to process her life and all the information that she had found out! Watching Neva struggle to come to terms with everything really was heart-breaking! She was such a strong character though, but she just didn't know it! She was definitely the kind of character I just wanted to grab in a hug and not let go of them! What happened to Nova affected her so much and it took a lot of this book for her to process it and start to learn how to come to terms with it! Logan was again the love interest of Neva and he was again so hot in this book! I do think he was hotter in this book than what he was in the first book ;) Logan went through some internal struggles in this book as well and watching him struggle was equally as hard as watching Neva struggle! They were both such broken characters, but together they made each other whole! I loved that this book was written from both Neva and Logan's point of views! Logan's head was such an interesting place to be able to go into and seeing his true feelings for Neva really was beautiful! I also enjoyed that there wasn't a love triangle in this book like there was in the first book! I'm so excited for the next book in this series! I thought that it wasn't going to be about Neva and Logan when I started this book, and I was right lol! It's actually going to be Tate and Low's story and I cannot wait to read it! Plus, I'm sure Neva and Logan will make some appearances in it! The cover for this book is stunning! It suits the new cover for the first book perfectly and the guy on the front really suits the character of Angel! Well, I'm assuming it's Angel lol! Big thank you to S.K. Hartley for an ARC of Finding Me and to Enticing Journey Book Promotions for having me on the Blog Tour!
