Short
Summary of the book:
This book tells the story of London Grey, an
orphaned young woman and her college roommate Zoey. London’s parents were
killed in a car accident a few years earlier and she lived with her eccentric
grandmother.
Zoey’s brother is very protective of her and has
put restrictions on her freedom. As the eldest in their family, he is
responsible for his little sister. Their parents died several years earlier.
Ryder Malone has had London investigated to ensure his sister will be safe. The
moment he sees her on a picture, his obsession with her starts.
What will happen once Zoey and London graduate
from college? Will all go separate ways or will their paths cross again?
What
I liked about the book:
Although Ryder is very controlling, I loved
the obvious love he had for his little sister. The obvious power struggle
between responsibilities and love playing inside him is also well played out.
What
I didn’t like about the book:
I hate bullies with a vengeance and I hated Zoey
was bullied by some other college girls. There wasn’t anything about the book I
didn’t like, though.
My
favourite bits in the book:
I loved when London stood up for Zoey and how
she fought for those she cared about. Her obvious shock at finding out what
Zoey and Ryder were and at a later stage finding out her own identity were
great too.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
I loved the book in its entirety and it was
with difficulty I stopped myself from buying the next book in the series
already.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
I understand this is the first in the series
and, once I have read some more of the massive collection of books on my Kindle,
I will look forward to getting the next in the series.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
There are certainly a lot of commonalities
with other books in the paranormal range, shifters, witches, animal attraction
etc.

successful.
