I listened to audio book for this one. It went quickly but in no way was this was a thriller. I liked that she was going to get married and like the portions on Enzo. But overall, it was disappointing. I sure hope the next book in the series is better or it will be my last.
Today is supposed to be the happiest day of my life.
I'm engaged to the man of my dreams, and in a few short hours, I'm going to stand before a judge, who will declare us husband and wife, till death does us part. Despite some bumps in the road, this day is everything I dreamed it would be.
There's only one problem:
Someone out there doesn't want me to live long enough to say my vows.
And if I'm not careful, they may very well get their wish.
