The Damaged (Insiders Book 2) by Tijan

This is an honest review for an arc received.

Book 2 picks up right where book 1 ended.

She is also dealing with some self-doubt until the air is somewhat cleared between her and her father. But unexpected news threatens to throw her into a tailspin. Tragedy once again strikes, this time to her core.

Kash Colello is playing a dangerous chess match. Trying to outmaneuver his grandfather is daunting. He’s relentless in his need to keep Bailey safe. But enemies are coming from all sides. Just when he thinks he’s finally getting ahead the unimaginable happens. The secrets he keeps are meant to protect Bailey. But what happens when Bailey is dealt another devastating blow. Will Kash be able to get her through it?

5 fan-freaking-tastic stars!!!! OMG Tijan, this story blew my mind, literally. The twist, the turns, the undying love and unbelievable heartbreak, this book has it all. But the surprise at the end??? I need the last book like yesterday. Well done, ma’am. Well freaking done.
