I really liked the way the book started out, and it kept me hooked through till the end.  I really liked were there's that mystery right in the beginning.  I wanted to find out what happened to Trevor and Luce's involvement.  I liked Luce's character and of course fell in love with the "hot" Daniel.  I also enjoyed Cam and his naughtiness.  I was really curious to find out what Cam was all about.  It kept the mystery throughout the book for me but the end was a little expected.  I'm really interested in finding out about Luce's past lives.  Hopefully Torment will give me what I'm looking for.

I gave this book 4 stars and I'm excited to start reading the next book!
