Wretched Review
Two bestselling authors, Yolanda Olson and Emery Leeann, came together to create a powerful novel, Wretched. Abused at a young age by their mother, Tieran and Hensley set out on a mission of revenge. Wretched took me through the hardship the twins faced as they struggled with their past and present. They were victims, who channeled their hatred to the outside world.
I was a bit lost at the opening chapters but picked up on things as the story progressed. The authors showcased why the twins became the people I read about in the book. It was an amazing outline of how some victims struggled to get past their past. Even when they believed they had.
The smut scenes were a good addition but not to my liking. I felt like it would have been better. The little action scenes bent towards unrealistic for me. If it leaned more to being realistic, it would have been a plus. It could have even elevated the story a little. The ending, oh gosh, the ending. I was definitely not a big fan.
Still, Wretch was a short read with major themes that touched my emotions. I rated it three out of five stars. I recommend it to readers who are chained down by their abusive past. We can't be a better version of ourselves unless we first decide to let go and move forward.
