crazy good

I thought this book was well done. At first, I thought it was dragging but than I realize the author was building up to the craziness. Dark Romance especially with young characters should not be written by every author as it is the trend right now unfortunately. Penelope Douglas did an awesome job with this story. She wrote in a very professional way. The characters were all very individual but followers too. The story followed well. The almost ending with Damon and Trevor was crazy. Twist and turns. Whole story was a psychological mishap. I think one of the crazier characters was Michael's father even though he wasnt a main character. I am also not one for all the mask with romance stories but it wasnt too bad. It added to the orginality of the story. I might have yelled at some of the characters here and there. Thats when you know story is good. When you are talking to the book. lol
