Great story about trying to be someone you truly aren't to appease those around you. The need to make others happy and stick with the status quo can be stifling. Finding someone who sees you for you is priceless even if it is forbidden.

Love the dancing background and how they met. Olivia just wants to live her own life, but the need to take care of her sister and be a good girl gets  shaken up when she discovers just how good and tempting being bad really is. Ends on a cliffhanger.

Great story. This had me from the 1st chapter with the burglary & helping women of domestic violence. Throw in the mandatory magic regulation & I was hooked.

Loved that Aria was discovering her talent for leading & training others. Her mates were smitten from the 1st moment they saw her. Her story is tragic, but I love that she was starting to trust people. Great cliffhanger and I can't wait for book 2.

Twists & turns abound. From the introduction of Thompson to the unraveling of the games, Liz partook in to the unveiling of betrayal. This story has it all.

The underlying theme that I absolutely love is not to underestimate those whom you think are weak or have little power. The way Candice's friends have rallied & fought with her is inspiring. Loyalty & bravery is just as strong as magic.

Wow. This story was full of twists and turns.  I loved the connection Willow had with the earth and how she was determined to right the wrongs of the Covenant. It was an interesting take on vampires & witches. 

I can't help but feel for Willow and all the layers of crap she had to deal with from her father all the way to Gray. I am so torn about Gray. I really believe that he cares for Willow. I hope the next book explores Gray's character deeper.
