The characters are very well written and will have the reader drawn into the story before they know it. While it is sad to see the end of this series it is still a very well written ending. This is one series readers should give a try.

This is a book that once you start reading the story it will not let you go. There are very few books I have read that once I put them down to sleep or do something else I can’t get them out of my mind. This is one story that will haunt you in a very good way after you put it down. This is one that you will hate yourself if you miss. The characters are such that they will get into your mind and they will not let go for any reason. The story is remarkable in that once you are pulled into it you will not want to leave it for any reason. This one is an absolute keeper. Do not miss this remarkable story.

The paranormal elements in this one make it very interesting and will keep the reader guessing what is going on and what will happen next. For readers that enjoy Beauty and the Beast they will love this one and won’t want to miss it. The author took the original story and made it her own with the twist and turns she gave this tale.
