Reviews for Almost Dead (The Au Pair—Book Three)

[NNEAMAKA PAYNE · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

With the latest information Cassandra has a clue as to where her sister might be. In the meantime, she is working temporarily for Ottavia as an au pair for her children. A divorced, powerful and cruel woman who owns Rossi's shoes.

Nina and Venetia are unlike any eight- and nine-year-olds. Robotic. Disciplined.
Cassandra soon learns of the family's horrifying secrets. One that puts her own life in danger.
Now with the death of Ottavia, Cassandra must watch her every move and every word that comes out of her mouth.

Almost Dead is filled with mystery, suspense, abuse and lies. An amazing read.
Thank you, Book Sirens and the author, for a complimentary copy in exchange for my honest opinion.

Almost Dead (The Au Pair #3) was a great read by Blake Pierce. Cassandra had a disastrous experience in her last placement in England. She is left trying to pick up the pieces of the fallout. There is a divorced mother in Italy who needs an au pair for her children. Cassandra is determined to make this placement last, that is until a horrifying discovery pushes her farther than she thought possible. I enjoyed reading this book and can't wait to read more by the author.
