Ava wakes up in the hospital only to find out she has forgotten the last two years, including her marriage to Eli, the man she despises. 

This was not what I was expecting at all, but in a good way. This was a lot less dark than the other books in the series. Though Eli is the definition of a psychopath, he also has a tenderness to him and that is reflected throughout the book. That said there are still a lot of TWs. 

Ava suffers from psychosis and because of it, she struggles with reality. Her parents have never really taken an aggressive approach with her treatment and vices, so she has never had control over her psychosis. After being turned down my Eli, she shifted her energy into her hatred for him. Never would she imagine marrying the man, she despised him. 

Eli is a psychopath. He is unfeeling and uncaring... Except when it comes to Ava. Throughout the years he has developed an obsession with her. He took the opportunity to force her hand in marriage after

he killed a man who was attempting to rape her. He threatened to kill her if she ever told anyone.

 

After getting married and taking control of her care, he

distanced himself from her because the doctors felt like his face was triggering her episodes. Yet, he was always there for her even when she hated him and though him uncaring. This distance is what triggers an episode where she stabbed Eli and then fell down the stairs, causing her amnesia.

I really loved their relationship. Eli protected and cared for her, while she opened him up to the possibility of love.

The ending did feel rushed. I could have done without the weird

epilogue where she has triplets. But still a cute ending.

I'm sad that we aren't getting an Ari and Remi book! 

Tropes: forced marriage, enemies to lovers, opposites attract
