The series is reaching that point where Kristen Ashley's writing just becomes a little too...redundant? Dramatic? The repetition of certain phrases is like Ashley's signature as a writer. It's just...it sort of disgruntles me how whenever the characters are surprised or awed they say things like “Oh my God. Oh my God.” It's getting kind of old.
Anyways. Moving on to the actual content and plot of the book. Faye is who I imagine a lot of book lovers are. After reading so many romance novels, she's willing to wait for THE ONE to give her everything to. She's quiet, smart, geeky, funny, and has a sort of flare to her that fuels her moments of courage.
Chace...at this point, Chace is a normal guy in love who'd do anything for Faye. His behavior throughout the book deserves some swoonage.
However, my most favorite parts of the book involved Malachai and CHARACTERS FROM KRISTEN ASHLEY'S OTHER SERIES. DOES THIS CONSTITUTE AS CHEATING, USING YOUR CHARACTERS FROM A DIFFERENT SERIES IN ANOTHER? OH MY GOSH I'M KIND OF ASHAMED AT NOT GUESSING WHO SERENITY WAS AFTER THE FIRST MENTION OF CASTLE. BUT I GUESS I SHOULDN'T BE TOO HARD ON MYSELF SINCE SHE WAS FROM ANOTHER SERIES.
Warning/disclaimer/note: Faye is a lot less fiery and sassy than the other heroines in the other books of this series so hot fights between the hero and heroine will be few.
