Dear Captor,
You’ve stolen me.
You’ve spilled my blood.
You’ve brought me pain.
But what you’re yet to realize... I’m a fighter.
I’ve been broken before.
I’ve even at one point lost the will to live.
So now you know… this information I gift to you.
I’m ready for you, so do your worst.
Sincerely,
Elenore

Excerpt
Prologue
What’s in a
name?
Usually,
parents name their children with a special kind of love in their hearts. Not
mine though. They didn’t want me, or at least, that’s what they kept telling
me. They only ever wanted to inflict pain. I was nobody until the woman next
door gave me the lovely name Elenore. She cared for me when my own parents
didn’t or wouldn’t.
Every
single day I wished to be taken away from what I endured. Anywhere would have
been good. I would have sold my soul to the devil himself back then, and I’d
willingly do it now. Give my living essence to breathe, to live on. My entire
childhood was a survival story, and now I have another.
So much
blood. Everywhere I look, there are dark pools of solidified blood stuck to the
walls, the floor—my entire cell is covered. The girls who came before me are no
more. Their stories are over. It was gruesome, the stuff of your nightmares.
Not me,
though—he kept me.
One letter
changed my destiny of certain death. It was never in me to give up easily. I’ve
always been a fighter. He never saw me coming, and he never knew my strength.
He was not what I expected either.
His
strength.
His
calmness.
Or his
kindness.
He was my
captor . . .
Review by Kathy
Brilliantly written, edge of your seat suspense that will leave you breathless. The characters are well written and well developed and complex. Our lead female Eleanor has had an extremely hard and abusive life up until she was seventeen, and this upbringing just may be what could save her. Other supporting characters, we are just beginning to learn about them, but the Detective that Eleanor meets and was going to have a first date with is quite intriguing and holds possibilities.
This review will be short as any more that I write will be giving too much away about the book and you really need to read every detail for yourself as you get to know these characters and try to figure out who the evil one is.
I see this series is going to be quite addicting and I can hardly wait to read the next one. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
