Two Footsteps (The Game of Life Series #2) by Belle Brooks




"My life is in the Wolf's hands."

He is the Wolf. I am his Red. The game has begun and he wants me dead. 
But who is the Wolf? 
And why has he chosen me? 
He whistles a tune that's haunting. He glares at me through eyes that are vacant. I feel his heart beating, yet I know he has no soul. He moves like the wind...I can't hear his footsteps. I want this to end. He's playing with my mind. He branded me with ink. He wants to destroy me. 
"I, Reid, take thee, Morgan, to be my wife. To have and to hold, for better, for worse, in sickness and in health, till death do us part..."
I have a reason to keep running. 
There's no time to blink. 
Don't look back. Don't make a sound. 
I know he's behind me.
 
 Two Footsteps, book 2 of The Game of Life Series, is a psychological thriller that is wonderfully disturbing.  The story continues right where the Wolf left Morgan, "battered, broken and bruised." wondering who he is, knowing only that he's ready for the game to truly begin "Taunting her is heaven."
 
Written in first person, from dual perspectives, you will not be able to put this quick read down for a moment. Revealing some important bits about the Wolf, leading to more questions, then revealing some interesting bits about Morgan & Reid as well.  Just like them, you'll be "trying to piece this puzzle together, to work out the answer to this sick game."  The plot thickens as Morgan focus' with all she has left to get back to her family "I have to fight." & Reid is works to find a way to get her back & keep his family together.  Be prepared for the heart wrenching love of a mother for her children & of a marriage that has gotten off track "When did we lose our way?  When did we forget to treasure each other?". More gasp out loud cringe worthy moments to be had, as the hellish ride continues in hopes of escape, as Morgan takes things into her own hands... 
 
"The wolf is messing with the wrong Red..."  "Let this fucking game begin."
 
Simply can't wait for the next installment of The Game of Life Series.
