Book Description:
Strange and tragic things begin to happen in the small town of Hallowell, Maine: residents come down with an unexplainable ‘illness’ and some disappear. In the midst of everything, Isaac Mayfair is adamant about keeping Adria safe, even from her sister whom he has warned her to stay away from.
As unspeakable secrets unfold all around Adria, impossible choices become hers to bear. Ultimately, no matter what path she takes, her life and the lives of those she loves will be in peril. As she learns about the werewolf world she also learns why her place in it will change the destinies of many.
My Thoughts:
This book is a must read for “Werewolves fanatic”. Thank you,
Jessica for giving us a copy. I was on Chapter 1 and on the edge of my seat
already. It was adrenaline-packed! I absolutely enjoyed this book.
The story is about Adria and Alex, two sisters from Athens,
Georgia. Both are really close. Until one day, a werewolf encounter had changed
Alex in an instant. Alex is not like who she was before. Who are the Vargas
Brothers? What had caused Alex’s change of attitude? What is the mystery behind
Isaac and his family? You have to read this book to find out.
It’s been awhile since I have read a book about “Werewolves”.
I admit, I’ am not a fan of it. I’ am more of a “Vampire” sort of girl. But this
book had changed all that. I was impressed by the World-building. It was
believable. The world Jessica created had made an imprint on me. It was
unforgettable. It reminds me a bit of Twilight, but Edward is a Werewolf. The pacing was good too; there were no dull
moments. The rivalry between the two powerful
families gave spice to the story. The action scenes are vividly described. I
feel like I was watching a movie. It was very cinematic. I also like the
mystery behind the story. The twists and revelations almost made me faint. It was
that good.
As for the characters, they are well developed and
realistic. I love how unique each individuals are. They were described pretty well. I didn’t have
a hard time imagining them. Adria is the
heroine here. She is vulnerable yet strong at the same time. I admire her love
for Alex. Despite, what happened; she did not want to leave their relationship
just like that. Instead, she made a goal of bringing her sister back. Isaac is the
main guy. He is mysterious and powerful. He is the type of guy that every girl
is dreaming of. His dedication to protect Adria, melts my heart. Zia is my
favorite character. I love her perky personality. There is something about her
that embraces you in. I hope there is more about her past on the second book. Lastly,
Nathan gave spice to the story. I love his funny comebacks for Isaac. There are more characters in the book. I shall
leave them to you to discover.
The love angle was good! It was not rushed. No
love-triangle. Hooray! I don’t like picking between two hot guys. Adria and
Isaac’s relationship was realistic.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. I recommend this to supernatural
lovers. There are no dull moments. The
book will appeal to action, mystery and romance lovers. I can’t wait for Book
Two.
I give this book 4.5 Whales
