Wow. This book was a roller coaster ride! I really could see this as a movie! But to be honest, it only got better to me once I read the ebook. The narrator really killed the story for me with her voices. 
I will say that at first, I couldn’t stand all the characters and by the end I could tolerate most of them. It was a wild ride. There were chases, kidnappings, and killings. However, it took forever to get good!
It wasn’t until like 60-70% of the novel was done before it got good! Before then, I struggled with the storyline. Specifically with Austin the main character. He came a LONG way for sure. 
The writing was pretty good and I would recommend this as a read. I will definitely read more books by this author in the future.

A crazy ex and her crazy family are willing to do anything to get her ex husband back. I enjoyed this book but the ending could have been a bit better. I would have liked to see what happened after everything Austin and his family went through.

Naomi and her family are psychos. I can't believe what she put her ex-husband, Austin, and his new family through. I love this book it held my attention better than Nana (I just didn't like it) but this book is absolutely a five-star read.🤓

This book was like a lifetime movie. The kidnapping part seemed a little unrealistic as well as the ending with Naomi sneaking in their room but the plot was good. The MMC got on my nerves a lot because he had weak man energy lol! Brooke was a soldier lol. The kid blew me because he was defending them crazy folks lol
