I received an eARC of the book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Actual Rating 3.5 Stars
I rarely read paranormal adult romances – somehow for me shifters are much better off in a YA novel rather than an adult one. You may be thinking, then why am I requesting a paranormal book to review? Truth is, somehow this blurb struck a chord with me – maybe it’s the element of suspense in it or the element of heavy angst in it – I do remember I was in a mood for a heavy angsty read and therefore, my request for this book!

So let’s understand this – I liked this book! I did – but I wasn’t as overwhelmed by it as I wanted to – And I REALLY wanted to be! I wanted this book to tear me apart, break me down in a way that I would feel I never even wanted to be whole again.

First this book read as if it was a sequel or even a part of series which by a cursory glance to Goodreads proved me wrong (I think), because author talked about characters in a way that she expected that I would be acquainted by them (I wasn’t!).

Second, I really liked both Aimee and Jake, but individually. Together, they had a companion sort of relationship that turned into love so quickly that it gave me a head rush and I actually had to check whether I had missed a page or a whole chapter in the process.

The Saving Grace or Graces? The plot as well as the writing – both in different circumstances could have made this book one of the best books and could have catapulted into the paranormal genre. I loved how the author handled the characters – as I said, I really liked them individually – both characters being some that I would have rooted for (and I did!). The writing was fluid and had no breaks as far as I was concerned, it just lacked that “something” extra that could have endeared this book that’s all.
