I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to see where book 2 goes! Amelia has an amazing fire within her, and I love how fated mates are no longer a given, but viewed as more of a fairy tale now. The mystery of Amelia's family's past and who was waiting in the wings wanting to cause her harm along with the spark between Amelia and Gabriel kept me turning pages. I think one of my favorite parts of the story was watching Amelia grow, mature, and evolve as a character. I would've liked Gabriel to grow and evolve a little more as a character, but overall I really enjoyed reading this book. ( )
