US BLOGGERS! I have ARCS to give away so if you want one send me a message or leave a comment!The idea for the book came from a few things - Ryan Gosling in Drive ;) and the opening scene, which is a massacre in a police station, is a homage to one of my favorite movies growing up - Terminator!

2.5 starsThis was an okay story, but the main characters were just stupid at times.Liva and Jay were both okay characters on the surface, and I did like them a little bit, but their poor decisions just really started to annoy me after a while. Even when Jay said something intelligent one moment, he then went and did something that totally went against what he said! Why keep doing things that you know will get you caught?The storyline in this was book was also annoying for the same reason. Even
