REVIEW:
Writing a review for this book is hard without giving anything away. But if you love a book that keeps your mind juggling, this is the one. Hiding a secret and making the reader guess, keeps the book in the mind of the reader, even if he’s put it down for a few hours. Only to pick it up again because he wants to find out now!!
The book tells us about Roman, who meets Lucas, a professional hit man on a trip to Vienna. On their last night together they have sex. Three years down the road they meet again. Roman, a pessimistic drug addict is not interested in a relationship, but Lucas falls in love. And while their relationship is developing, we meet Daniel who will lead Roman on a path of self-destruction. But the question will be: Can Lucas save Roman?
With the addition of Jeremy, a beautiful prostitute, who I can picture in my mind thanks to the playful description Kol gives, the foursome is complete. But due to the secret and the screwed up lives they lead, that never happens. Maybe that’s the only thing missing in this book 😉 .
Throughout the book I always felt as if I was supposed to hate these characters and yet I never found myself capable of doing so. And that was due to the brilliant writing and careful plotbuilding. This novel will keep you tied down with the book for a few good hours, never giving you a chance to put it down.
The twists at the end of the book were a BIG surpise to me, but they were very fitting for the characters.
This book keeps you on the edge of your seat / bed (or wherever you prefer to read 😉 ) and these characters will do everything you know they shouldn’t do. But you keep urging them on !!
