Publisher's Summary

Banks: Buried in the shadows of the city, there's a hotel called The Pope. Ailing, empty, and dark, it sits abandoned and surrounded by a forgotten mystery. But you think it's true, don't you, Kai Mori? The story about the hidden 12th floor. The mystery of the dark guest who never checked in and never checks out. You think I can help you find that secret hideaway and get to him, don't you? I will never betray him. So sit tight. On Devil's Night, the hunt will be coming to you.

Kai: You have no idea what I seek, Little One. You don't know what I had to become to survive three years in prison for a crime I would gladly commit again. I want that hotel, I want to find him, and I want this over. I want my life back. But the more I'm around you, the more I realize this new me is exactly who I was meant to be. So come on, kid. Don't chicken out. My house is on the hill. So many ways in, and good luck finding your way out. I've seen your hideaway. Time to see mine.

Contains mature themes.

Loving the series so far

I enjoyed that Kai was the 2nd book, especially since he was a bit of a mysterious character in the first one. Looking forward to the rest of the series

A Dark and Intense Thriller

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Heat Level: 🔥🔥

Having delved into "Hideaway" by Penelope Douglas for the first time, I opted for the audio version, and I must say, it was beautifully played, adding an extra layer to the already intense narrative.

This book is nothing short of intense and downright messed up in the best possible way. What sets Douglas apart is her ability to keep readers on the edge of their seats with unpredictable twists and turns. You're never certain of a happy ending, which adds to the thrill.

The story is shrouded in suspense, with dark undertones permeating every page. I found myself unable to predict the ending, and I won't spoil it here. Suffice it to say, the depth of the narrative is something you have to experience firsthand.

"Hideaway" brings back the adrenaline rush of Devil's Night, with its intricate plot and compelling characters. The dynamic between Banks and Kai is fraught with tension, making for a gripping read.

In summary, if you're looking for a tense, suspenseful, and dark story that keeps you guessing until the very end, "Hideaway" is a must-read. Just be prepared for a wild ride into the depths of mystery and intrigue.

Story was on.

I very much dislike how the female narrator accentuates the word “to”.
It really got under my skin. I’m guessing the next book won’t be any different

Kai 😍

Kai is so much more softer and understanding than Michael was. I mean don’t get me wrong he still has his dark moments but I really enjoy Kai. A lot of the times I felt sorry for him for the way Banks was never choosing him when he would do anything for Her.

Banks as well my heart felt for the suffering and abuse she went through. But that girl sure knew how to aggravate me. I swear I could feel the aggravation Kai was feeling towards her cause I was feeling them too.

Quote:

“Kai Whisper in Banks ear”
Kai: You feel that?
Banks: Feel what?
Kai: “You fit me like a mold”

Alternate POV and time line

I listened to this one on Audible. I adored Kai but I found Banks to be annoying and whiney. The alternating POVs and time line were great helping to paint a full picture of the relationships betwee all the main characters. Alex and Will are probably my favorite and I want to go shopping with them.

Pretty good :)

I love it! I think Kai will be my favorite characters, the good guy but tormented soul. Penelope Douglas is very talented!

Female reader was rough

I ended up having to switch to my kindle to finish the book from chapter 15 because I could not listen to the way the reader pronounced ‘to’ among other things

Did not like it

It was a pain to finish the book and I did not like Banks at all. The first book was way better and way hotter.

Toxic Characters

The first book was terrible but I finished it due to the great reviews of Hideaway. Unfortunately I cannot finish this book. I find myself wondering if the author of this book dislikes women and why are all the male characters so toxic?
