Review
The story that I got was not the story I thought I’d get. I thought I’d be in the head of Cora, the mc from the last book, which to be honest, I haven’t read yet. I have, however, been stalking it for awhile. I was like, “Hey, you could jump into book 2 here, and miss all the world building stumbling.” Not that every author stumbles in this area.
What I got was an English heiress.
Once I got over that surprise, and we got out of England, the plot really picked up, but I never did manage to sync with Victoria. So because I couldn’t bond with the mc, the plot was just…plot.
I will say that the world Ms. Collins created is fantastic!! And the action was GREAT, which are the two big things for me when reading a book. I look forward to reading book 1 so I can return to this world. This series is exactly the kind of world/story that I’ve been craving.
Paranormal Properties
I was fascinated with the paranormal when I was very young. I always felt like someone was around me even when I was alone. It caused me to be inspired to write a paranormal book where a teenager can see and hear ghosts and actually makes friends with one.
I live in Texas with my husband, son, and two cats who think they run the place. I read, write, play Texas Hold’em poker (I’m actually part of a local league), and occasionally I compete in BBQ competitions with my husband. Our team name is Outcast Cookers. I also teach in a public school.
