Summary:
What if your destiny meant the one you loved would die?Julia Parker would trade her secret gift to feel others emotions in a heartbeat, especially half the horny guys in school.
After running out of gas and having no choice but to walk through the woods home, she feels something no one should feel: blood-lust. When trying to escape, she falls off a cliff. Who comes to her rescue? None other than a hot guy with super human strength. Only problem is, he's there when you need him and gone when you want him.
Julia tries to forget what happened, but starts losing friends to these monsters. Unable to ask her rescuer for help, she has nowhere else to turn. Advice from a creepy psychic tells her she alone is the key to stopping the madness. Problem is it'll require her rescuer's life. Great.
My Thoughts:
Now, I know I said I don’t typically read vampire and werewolf stories in my previous review of Beautiful Demons, but I needed to expand my horizon on books. When I found this story, I thought it was a great opportunity to read something a bit different than what I normally read. This was a really good story I liked how everything in the story was tied together perfectly. Each scenario that Julia went through was tied together from her own past or someone else’s past. Her actions made a lot more sense throughout the story, even though some of her decisions had me silently lecturing the character. The character felt very real and in one of these dangerous situations, my heart was racing only because I didn’t know what was going to happen. I won’t say what the “crisis point” was but I think I held my breath just because I was scolding the character in my head, as if Julia could hear me. Overall, I loved this book, for everyone whose loves vampire and werewolf stories, you might enjoy this one as well.
