[ARC Review] Triple Threat by K. Webster

On the surface, Landry Croft's life is perfect. Rich, gorgeous - the world is hers for the taking. If only her father didn't keep her like a prisoner, locked in her ivory tower, at the whim of his drunken tantrums. Landry just wants to get her little sister and get out. The Mannford triplets, however, want to get in. On a mission to ruin the family that destroyed theirs, Sully, Sparrow and Scout will stop at nothing. But then, acting as one, they meet Landry. As the triplets' past starts repeating itself, Landry finds herself on a rollercoaster of emotions: over her father's moods, her sister's safety, and the boy who seems to have three very different - and very dark - personalities. 

Triple Threat delicately toes the line between what's safe and dangerous, what's innocent and perverse. I really enjoyed the whole premise, and the deeper we got into the triplet's perspectives, the darker things became. Webster did an excellent job at writing Scout, Sully, and Sparrow's points of view; each triplet is kind of unhinged in their own way and each one responds differently to Landry. It's easy to keep the three personalities separate, even as they all three descend into a sort of maddening obsession with Landry. I personally loved the triplets, especially as they simultaneously became darker. I was intrigued with Landry's perspective, even though I much preferred the inner workings of the triplets. I loved that Landry wasn't just some spoiled princess locked in a tower. That tower she couldn't escape from held many dangers. I wanted to see her get help, to get both her and her sister away from their father. And falling into the triplets' paths? I thought that only made Landry's story that much more interesting. 

There are some darker themes running throughout the book. I think there are darker things ahead for the Mannfords and Crofts, and I'm very interesting in where Webster takes them next. There is a hint of romance running throughout Triple Threat, but even that is far from innocent. 

I enjoyed this novel from K. Webster for the dark web it wove, featuring some wonderfully dynamic characters and a plot that only thickened the more readers get to know the four main players. I do feel like this story can get darker, so I'm excited to see what Webster brings next for Landry, Sully, Scout, and Sparrow.
