My Review
The things I loved about this story was richness of the
setting. It was refreshing to be away from city life and in the wildness
working against the elements. The second
thing I liked about this story was the world building. This is a shifter story,
yet it’s not typical. There is history behind who these people are and what
they believe. The author didn’t cut corners on bring to life this tale. And
what I really loved about the story were the two flawed characters River and
Jonathan.
River is the one in this story with a twisted past. She is
the one with this hidden secrets that shaped who she was. Typically, in most books I read it’s the
guy. But, let me not stray, Jonanthan
has his own baggage and a wound that will never allow him to forget what he
went through.
These two are fated not to be together more than Romeo and
Juliet. Yet there is a love story that develops at the right pace. No insta
love her, thank goodness.
Overall, it was a really good read for me and I highly recommend.
My book boyfriend, Jonathan.
