This is definitely a chilling thriller and one that kept my attention from start to finish. The story is intensive and I devoured it in no time. What a thrill ride this book offers.It opens with a bang and then on it never lets up. Mainly told in first person narration and by giving us third person ...

High on Oxy, and trying to escape her problems, she makes the fatal mistake that will change her life forever. Henry Stea...
That bright flashing add at the top of my GR page at 5:30 AM must go.
I’ll start off with a PSA: You’ll want to make sure you can finish 15 Seconds in one sitting, because once you start it, you just have to know how this is going to end.Now let’s get to the fun stuff! Poor Henry. He’s driving around Jacksonville trying to find his hotel, when he’s pulled over. Before...
