My name's Eve and all I want is a normal life.
But when a tragedy drags me home from uni it quickly becomes apparent that there was much more to

I loved this magical adventure. Eve is a fantastic and intriguing character and I really enjoyed watching her discoveries. The story flowed beautifully and keeps you within the story from start to finish. There's lots of magic, suspense and heart warming romance. Fantastic book and will definitely continue on to book two.

A Different Hero
Although I could not wrap my head around the two lovers in this book, it was still interesting. There was a lot of action with many different supernatural - vampires, shapeshifters, demons and mind readers. The plot and characters were very good.

The story line was good, the character work was great, and the book has a fairly smooth flow to it. I was entertained from beginning to end. I look forward to more from this author.

A great new series. Intriguing and fast paced to make you impatient for the next one to be ready.
(FYI I tend to only review one book per series, unless I completely change my mind on a series, so want to change my scoring down a lot)
How I rate Stars: 5* = I loved (must read all I can find by the author)
4* = I really enjoyed (got to read all the series and try other books by the author).
3* = I enjoyed (I will continue to read the series)
or
3* = Good book just not my thing (I realised I don't like the genre or picked up a kids book to review in error.)
