Goodreads Blurb:

 When Justyn and Rebecca set off to attend the New York School of Performing Arts, they think their dreams are about to come true. To their dismay, they aren’t in high school anymore, and the competition is steep. Rebecca must compete against accomplished singers for a role in the production of Demon Barber, including a stunning Gothic diva with her sights set on Justyn.

It doesn't help that things keep disappearing from their apartment or that Rebecca's father refuses to accept that Justyn is an essential part of her life. Yet, all this seems minimal in comparison to the serial rapist terrorizing the campus.

Consumed by fear and obsessed with revenge, Rebecca and Justyn start living the story of Sweeney Todd—both on and off the stage.

My Review:

 I found book 2 of the Dark Musicals series to be just as good as the first. Just as touching, romantic, exciting and mysterious. I did not know what to expect, but Laura is FULL of surprises! All fans of the genre will enjoy a great escape with Demon, even if you are not familiar with the musical the story is based upon (like me!) The author wrote it so wonderfully you’ll visualize every single moment!

Justyn and Rebecca is still an amazing couple. (I still feel that Rebecca made the perfect choice when she chose Justyn in book 1 of the series!) They are both now going on a new journey in life. Meeting new people, learning new things and experiencing new experiences. They have a bit more of a challenge with their talents this time around because it is much more demanding and professional than high school was for them. But together, those two can accomplish anything!

Even though this is book 2 of a series it can be read as a stand-alone. But I truly recommend reading book 1 so you can gain a true appreciation of Justyn and Rebecca’s relationship. I look forward to what Laura will bring us next in the series :)
