Fifty years ago the Commander came into power and murdered all who opposed him. In his warped mind, the seven deadly sins were the downfall of society. He created the Hole where sinners are branded according to their sins and might survive a few years. At best.
Now LUST wraps around my neck like blue fingers strangling me. I’ve been accused of a crime I didn’t commit and now the Hole is my new home.

Darkness. Death. Violence. Pain.

Now every day is a fight for survival. But I won’t die. I won’t let them win.

The Hole can’t keep me. The Hole can’t break me.
I am more than my brand. I’m a fighter.

My name is Lexi Hamilton, and this is my story.

 

Branded was not the kind of book that I thought it was. Don't get me wrong I knew what it was about but I never expected it to catch me the way that it did when we start talking about people being treated like scum and sent to live like low life's I'm usually put off. I was immediately caught up in the story of why this is happening to Lexi. From the beginning you start thinking what the hell is wrong with this girl and than you start to understand her pain. Than all you can say is you better fight girl and not give up. Of course you can't have a good story without a strong male character and that is where Cole comes in. He is the guy that is suppose to protect her but ends up falling in love with her. In the end this is a book about survival and the will to overcome all obstacles that get in your way to be the person that you need to be
