Publisher's summary

I am loyal, but I will betray you. I am strong, but I have scars. I am an angel, but the devil. I met her when I was 16 and she was a breath of fresh air. She swooped in, making me smile. But then she left, taking my next breath with her. Her smile could light up a room, making my black heart pitter patter. I found her again 10 years later, with a syringe in her arm. Blood coming from between her legs. She was broken and I was glad she was broken. She wouldn't think less of me and my damaged ways.

My Two Pennies

Cat & P.J. have done an exceptional job on this book, I was hanging on to their every word. Two souls found each other once only to be separated without a warning. The story of Black (Liam) and Rose is dark and twisted but you cant turn away, both of them have been through quite and ordeal through the years and are still fighting their demons at times. When your supppose to be with someone you'll always find your way back when the time is right. As dark and black as Liam believe believes his soul to be living the life he does there's a caring man inside, Rose knows it and gives her all to help him see what she sees. This book has some vivid scenes but its a great read and you feel the emotions deep down. I was hanging on every word and couldn't get enough of both Black and Rose. I will be heading onto book 2, Red that's for sure the ending of this story had me dying to know what happened. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.

Just Meh...

It was really hard for me to get into the story because the orators weren't very good. It felt stunted and sounded like my middle schoolers reading aloud. The story itself was just okay.

A good black book

A great dark book, hard to put form jug. It’s full of things you’re not ready for. And keeps you on your seat. A wonderful dark ride.
It’s just as good the second time.

I really tried!

After seeing some of the reviews I was excited to start this. I tried sooooo hard to get into this story but it was really just plain boring and drug on and on. The narrators were so so - I haven't heard them before and in the beginning, they really got on my nerves but as it went on I got used to them although the male is very slow and even when speeding it up it didn't help.
I am sure others will enjoy this - as you can see from the other reviews but I stopped with only about an hour left cause I just couldn't do it anymore.

Dark

Definitely a dark story. Not my cup of tea...somewhat of a cliffhanger. It was written and performed well, just too dark for me

Wow.

This book and narration were off the charts amazing. Both Cat and PJ were able to make me feel as if I was living the story while I listened.

TL Smith has a writing style that is all her own. From the story to the depth that the characters portray it was outstanding from beginning to end.

I can not wait to devour both more of TL Smith's written words and her audiobooks. Especially if they are narrated by these two.
