Review for NetGalley

It’s was an addictive read one that made stay up until the early hours of the morning because I needed to know how it ends. It’s a dark story with a great plot.

If you have ever seen on episode of the CW Arrow TV show the author in her own way tells you the same story to the point it is laughable. She didn't really change the characters rich playboy kidnapped on lost on a island where he learned skills to kill ect. The woman Ana Jacobs same thing kidnapped on a island and is beaten, has scars, ect and wants to right the wrongs of her rich up bring.

Levi is Oliver and she doesn't even try to hid the face with his best friend dating his ex girlfriend.


This book screams of plagiarism in the since that the story, the Inner Circle, the characters are all very similar to the TV show Arrow and lack any creative story line that differs itself from the TV series.

The story lacks focus because it jumps between present and past. It is a series but ends in a very excepted cliff hanger.


The author put her best foot forward but failed in using a very popular TV and comic book show as her basic story.

Thank you to netgalley for a copy Cassandra Giovanni Into the Darkness #1
