Well, it seemed like this book managed to entertain me and irritate me in equal measure. It looked slightly over the top yet very impressive somehow. And I have to say that how he managed to save Neva’s life came as a huge surprise to me. At first, it was sad seeing him struggled with his animal-like abilities and behaviors, but lucky for him, it turned out that those things came in handy eventually. I enjoyed reading about Zeke’s life after his escape from the secret facility.

This might sound a little bit like a letdown even so, the paranormal part simply hit the spot for me. Sometimes both of them could be very adorable, but the other times they really drove me crazy. I’m not sure what to say about these two main characters. Instead of trying harder to a better man for her, he chose to end their relationship! Was he serious? That was…I don’t know. He thought he wasn’t good enough for her and she was better off without a beast like him. I felt disappointed when he broke up with her in order to protect her from himself. But I just didn’t like that Zeke often had these annoying habits of shutting Neva out and pushing her away. Not that there was an absence of chemistry between Zeke and Neva. I enjoyed almost everything about it, except for the romance aspect of it. 'About this title' may belong to another edition of this title.So, this was more like a romantic suspense story than paranormal one? Duh.

From Publishers Weekly:Īnn Aguirre's first book as Ava Gray adds a tiny touch of the psychic to a riveting romantic suspense novel.

In this guise, she writes high-octane paranormal romances she also writes romantic science fiction and urban fantasy as Ann Aguirre. She grew up in a yellow house across from a cornfield, but now she lives in a terra-cotta adobe house with her husband and two adorable children who generally do as they are told. Ava Gray has been a clown, a clerk, a savior of stray kittens, and a voice actress, not necessarily in that order.
