Beautiful Masterpiece (Thin Red Lines, #1)Beautiful Masterpiece by Gen Ryan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Beautiful Masterpiece by Gen Ryan is the first book in her Thin Red Line series and she absolutely crushed me! It is hard to find words to describe what I felt when reading this book. The writer has created a story that is dark and twisted and at the same time, she has thrown in some romance …
It is a story of Maddie and Scott and Liam in the Chaos created by a monster … Scott is the tough boy next door who kicks ass and plays by the book and who saved Maddie when she was a kid … Liam, the beautiful broken Liam … until the end, I hoped that there was a way for him to be saved …
My word, the writer has a mind I do not even want to delve into, she sucks you in, she gives you every characters thoughts when she writes from their point of view … she drags you along on a rollercoaster, you scream and you cry and you simply cannot put the book down until you are in the end, until you know, for sure, whether evil laughs in victory or whether the humanity still has a chance … The darkness that lives within us all, the evil that surrounds us … the innocence that is robbed … the sacrifice that is willingly given to protect … I cannot wait to read the next masterpiece!

Beautiful Masterpiece is the first book in the Thin Red Lines series by Gen Ryan. The story is very deep and dark, twisted and disturbing, terrifying and truly intense. Gen Ryan gives you a look into the twisted minds and souls of those who have been lost to the darkness. It is a psychological thriller that captures you and you can’t let go, much like a horror that you watch behind you fingers but can’t turn it off. Gen writes in different points of view which helps you find the deeper meaning behind each character, it definitely helps the story flow and melds it together nicely.

Maddison is a haunted young woman who had a horrific childhood that she is trying to run away from and lead a normal. But what is normal? Normal is not the serial killer father who killed her mother and got caught just shy of murdering her too. Normal is not looking over your shoulder and experiencing fear from a man who has escaped jail and is now playing with her.

Liam is a haunted young man who had a horrible childhood that he is trying to run away from and lead a normal life. But what is normal? Normal is not the dark thoughts he has. Normal is not acting on those dark thoughts and the voices he can’t keep at bay. His past haunts him but he has just found the one thing that may save him.

Scott is a knight in shining armour, he has not stopped thinking about the little girl who lived next door, the little girl he saved from certain death. Now he is face to face with the past and his job is to protect her at all costs, even if it is from herself.

My emotions were all over the place as I read this story and you find yourself getting attached with these characters. I enjoyed the whole thrill of the chase game throughout the story. There is a lot of dark and terrible things happen in this book that could be triggers for some people so tread carefully but if you like something dark and twisted then this is the book is for you.
