It took me a while to warm up to this book. Emily's/Charity's voice wasn't the most exciting voice to hear from. Let's go with Charity, Charity was dull and uninteresting for the most part until Link appeared. Maybe that was the intention of the author but it wasn't Charity that made this book interesting, Link brought a lot of relief to this book, he made Charity seem more interesting, he was charming, a little humorous, and supposedly a looker.

I wasn't sure how or when Link would show up in the story but I was pleasantly surprised that he was not a high school student like Charity. It made sense since Charity is actually older than seventeen.

The setting for this story also added another depth to the story, a good one. Telluride is a small skiing town in Colorado, the next hideout for the Johnston family.

In this book you can find almost every supernatural being you've come across in other paranormal novels. Vampires, witches, shapeshifters, you name it. As each being appeared in the book, the story takes a new direction and made it even more enjoyable.

I would say that the book got more and more interesting as it progressed. The concept was interesting so I was not bored out of my wits and was able to keep reading. As new characters appear the story got better and Charity's voice became more alive. Charity did come across as a seventeen year old not as someone pretending to be seventeen. I didn't get maturity or an old soul from her at all except for her dialogue saying she is a lot older than she seems. With my expertise from reading Twilight (lol) I know that supernatural beings should be able to blend into society seamlessly and not have any screw ups, but Charity could not get the knack of being human down, she kept forgetting to blend in. Now I can laugh about that, I should have realized that it was pretty funny, her forgetting to not be superhuman or much less her name.

Not a bad read at all.

Predictable non-ending. This is part one of a series and I have to assume that all the action takes place in the other books because this was pretty much a very wordy exercise in world-building. I probably won't bother with the rest of the series.

I am not sure that I liked this book. I feel like I have read a book just like this in the past. I am not sure why it seemed so similar but I liked it I just did not love it. It was interesting but just not something that I would want to read again in the future. It may be unfair because I have read some really great books lately so I added the extra star because of this.

Sometimes when you read a book in a series you look forward to reading the next book in the series but when you pick it up and it seems like you are reading the first book all over again. I Love paranormal romance but I this one seemed like it was a total replay of the first book. The characters bored me and made me really think that Charity went through the same thing in the end that she went through in the beginning.
