Then and Now - Review


The FINAL book in The Edge Of Retaliation series!!
Dear Fate,
Here I am, finally writing to you again.
Things haven’t changed, fate.
Time hasn’t healed anything.
As always, nothing makes sense.
Things aren’t coming together as they should.
Time has changed us very little.
It has only made everything that much more confusing.
Nothing is fixed.
Nobody is happy.
We still live with a dark cloud over our heads.
A cloud you refuse to clear away.
If only you’d explain yourself.
If only you’d tell me why you picked me?
If only you’d tell me why you took Celia?
If only you’d tell me why you chose Tanner?
If only you’d tell me why this web of lies keeps growing bigger?
Why you can’t just let us be?
I have no answers.
I do, however, have so many questions.
Can you answer those for me, fate?
Of course you can’t. You want me to figure this out.
To learn some valuable lesson.
How am I to do that, when you keep changing the rules?
No, fate, rules are not meant to be broken.
They’re there for a reason.
Stop changing reason.
You can’t control everything.
Right…
You can control everything.
You’re making sure I know that.
You’re making sure I know you’re coming for me.
For our final battle.
I’m ready, fate. I’m so ready.
It’s time for my freedom.
The freedom we both know I deserve.
I’ll get my peace.
Just you wait and see.

Absolutely Incredible!
Then and Now is the third and final book in The Edge of Retaliation series written by author Bella Jewel. This story is explosive, and it’s definitely one of my favorite books this year! In case you aren’t aware, this series has a continuous storyline. Therefore, you’ll need to read the books in order.
Then and Now is suspenseful, emotional, and full of twists. It was so gripping that I literally ignored everything and just read. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough! Although, at the same time, I didn’t want to reach the ending as I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to the characters.
I don’t want to spoil anything for you, but I got to tell you that the ending was perfect! I loved every minute of this series!

This for That is the first book in The Edge of Retaliation series written by author Bella Jewel. I’ve been so excited to read this story that I jumped right in when I saw it on my Kindle. Let me tell you, it was an explosive read, and I so want to spill all the beans, but I won’t. This is one book that you should read without any spoilers!
This for That was impossible to put down. Not only was the story gripping, unique, and full of twists, but the characters were complex and really well developed. I was so engrossed in the story that I forgot it ended with a cliffhanger, and I about died when I reached the end! So, be prepared for a doozy of a cliffhanger!
I recommend that you grab a drink, some snacks, and get comfy! You’re going on an epic ride, and it will have you gripping your Kindle tight as you beg for more!

None of this is your fault.
I’m sorry. I wish you knew how sorry I was.
Dear Andrea,

Nope.

A cold, broken monster.

You for Her is the second book in The Edge of Retaliation series, which is written by author Bella Jewel. So you are aware, this series has a continuous storyline. Therefore, you need to read the first book in the series, This for That, before you can begin this one. Now that I got that out of the way, I can tell you how much I flipping love this story. You for Her was an absolutely explosive read, and I just devoured it!
I literally ignored everyone and everything and just read. There were so many twists and turns that it was nearly impossible to put my book down. Right when I thought I figured some things out, Bella unraveled another twist that had me yelling at my book. My husband thought I was nuts, but I just kept saying that he didn’t understand. Then I proceeded to tell him how angry I was at some of the characters (Sorry, I can’t go into details! I don’t want to spoil it for you).
The thing is, not only was the storyline amazing, but the characters were so well developed. I felt a connection to Callie, and as I read, my emotions were right there with her. And let me tell you, I cried!
Like last time, I recommend that you grab a drink, some snacks, and get comfy! You’re going on another epic ride, and it will have you gripping your Kindle tight! Oh, and prepare yourself for another big cliffhanger!
