This book really impressed me. I loved the characters, and I was particularly happy that they weren't dumb. Way too often in a paranormal romance, one character will be really smart and strong and funny, and the other will sound silly or just weak. In this book, both the boy and the girl were equals. I liked that a lot. With really sweet romance, some fascinating dialogue, and a lot of exciting action, this is a book you should definitely check out.
