Touched by Elisa S. Amore

Hello Dear Readers,

I just finished reading Touched: The Caress of Fate by Elisa S. Amore and I loved it! Here’s my review:

This story is amazing! Evan and Gemma’s souls are drawn to one another, and they’ll fight to be together no matter what. I found the characters likable, the storyline imaginative and unique, and the intense emotions touched my heart.

My only problem with the book is its eloquent verbiage. I had kind of a hard time getting through the first half because the thought processes of the characters would go on and on, thinking about the same topic for several pages. It was beautifully written, but seemed a bit excessive to me in parts. That’s the only reason I’m giving Touched 4 stars instead of 5.

The second half picked up the pace quite perfectly and I HAD to keep reading to find out what was going to happen! It was amazing. Gemma and Evan’s relationship is flawed yet perfect, impossible yet unbreakable, forbidden yet required. My heart beat fast in time with Gemma’s every time he was near. I loved all the feelings this story invoked. This may now be one of my favorite fictional couples!

So, this book took me a while to read- almost two weeks! As I stated in my review, the wordiness (is that even a word?) in the first half put me off a little. I’d find my mind wandering as the deep, intense thought processes of the characters went on…and on. Now, don’t get me wrong: the writing is beautiful and emotional. I’m just one of those “a little less talk and a lot more action” kinda gals.

I am, however, SO glad I stuck with it and made it to the second half of the book- I got that action I’d been longing for and boy, Elisa Amore did not disappoint. It was amazing and I zipped through the pages, hungry for what would happen next.

Evan is….everything. He’s dark and mysterious, powerful and on a mission. Yet, he goes against his bosses (for lack of a better term), his instinct and his very nature just to get close to Gemma. I love him. A lot.

All in all, I’d definitely recommend this book. It gave me all the feels.

Until next time,

Wendi
