Young
Adult Paranormal Romance of love, loss and reconnection.
“Lead
us not into temptation, deliver us from evil.”
Words
of truth for seventeen-year-old Saydi Gardiner upon discovering her ancestry.
But if she has doubts, further confirmation is forthcoming and it comes in the
form of a wickedly gorgeous Nathanael Braxton, when he steals her heart and
cuddles into her soul – the last place the boy should be.
Nineteen-year-old
Nathanael’s unrelenting good looks aren’t the only thing that make him
dangerous – and he knows it! However, his caring human self struggles with a
loyalty – a loyalty that binds him to the hunt for the soul that will give his
family the power they seek. There’s only one problem: When he finds her,
Nathanael falls in love with his prey – Saydi.
Saydi is a 17 year girl living in a very small town. Everyone
knows everyone and hardly anyone leaves. She goes to school, gets good grades,
and goes to church on Sundays. Then one day some new people move into an abandon
house. This is great gossip for everyone because no one ever moves there. Not
only are they new people but it is a set of triplets that are Saydi’s age. Her
and her group of friends are immediately drawn to them. Saydi’s mom has always
told her she was special and that she needed to be extra careful.
Nathaniel, Job, and Joshua Braxton are the new boys in town. You
can tell pretty much right away that something isn’t quite right. Saydi starts
acting funny and has a weird dream that she decides to quickly blow off. Saydi
falls pretty hard for Nathaniel. I would consider it insta-love, which I hate,
but I pushed through it. I do have to say that I loved Nathaniel’s gentlemanly
behavior.
This is a book between good and evil, demons vs the gods. Saydi
and the destiny she is supposed to fulfill. Soon after Nathaniel and his
brother’s move in strange things start happening around town and Saydi finds
out something she would have never guessed about her father, herself, and the
Braxton family!
I really enjoyed the way the book was written and there was some
pretty good action. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy,
paranormal books. Paranormal books are not always my thing but I usually like
demon and god books a little more than say vampires and werewolves. So this
book gets thumbs up from me.
My Rating:
This book was provided for a blog tour for free in exchange for an honest review.
{About
C. Elizabeth}
C. Elizabeth lives in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada and during her short writing
career she’s learned a lot about herself, sometimes to the point that she
wonders how the heck she got this far in life and know so little about herself.
For the majority of her life she dabbled in many things, such as
drawing, photography, sewing, only to find that after a while, she would lose
interest, but writing is a different story — it found her and continues to be
an addiction, as well as a most wonderful, incredible passion.
Not only does she write novels, but she does whatever she can to
hone her craft. Such as attending the
New York Pitch Conference, seminars and the like, as well, she writes for
online magazines on the topic of… you guessed it, writing.
Her latest book is the YA paranormal romance, Soul Control.
