Overall score:

I scored this book 5/5

Short Summary of the book:

When Chelsea’s 18-year-old cousin Melody goes missing she initially is very angry with her and blames her for being irresponsible and putting her mother through unnecessary worry and stress. She goes to find her wayward cousin and bring her home. In the process, she finds a hidden and dangerous world. Something which might have been better left alone.

What I liked about the book:

I loved how fearless Chelsea was about bringing her cousin back. She was the typical responsible girl, working hard to do well at school and annoyed by how Melody was wreckless.

What I didn’t like about the book:

There was nothing in the book I didn’t like.

My favourite bits in the book:

How Slade went against his nature and saved the girls.

My least favourite bits in the book:

I enjoyed the book in its entirety.

Any further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?

This is the first book in the series and I had to restrain myself to buy the next books in the series. After a good fight with myself, I gave in and bought the other two in the series too.

What books could this be compared to and why?

This is another book in the ‘good’ vampire and ‘good’ Lycan genre. I really enjoyed this one.

Recommendation:


Children
No
Young Adult
Yes
Adult
Yes

If you like Fantasy, vampires and shifters this book may be the book for you.

I look forward to reading more books by this author.
