This was good, probably between a 3 and 4 star read. Very soapy with lots of drama. Some of the dialogue felt contrived at times, but I was still drawn into the plot. The first half was a real page turner and I did want to reach in the book and save Karolina from her self. David was pretty freaking mental and I wished his character was a little more three dimensional. I thought the glimpse of his relationship with his family was interesting and I wish there was more of those types of scenes. I thought the book would end at the 3/4 point after the big climax, but I found it refreshing the author chose to focus on the AFTER part of the story.
