Why did I pick this book: I participated in the blog tour hosted by AToMR Tours. (I received a copy of this book for review purposes.)
Did I enjoy this book: I did enjoy this book. It took longer than I expected to read but I did read it every free chance I had.
This was an interesting story. We meet Allie while she is in New Orleans working at her father’s hotel. The first day she arrives, she meets Levi. We can all guess what happens.
I liked Allie’s character for the most part. She was strong and didn’t really put up with lines and other crap from guys. She could hold her own. Allie’s sarcasm, wit, and character really struck me. She was a good character. Did she act like a typical teen girl sometimes? Yes, but that was okay.
Levi was awfully sure of himself. He was very presumptuous and arrogant. Levi rubbed me the wrong way throughout this book. However, that was his character and it worked. He and his crew were a typical “frat boy”-type group but with a much more interesting background.
There was romance, action, and the inevitable cocky-guy screw up. Throw in the fact that Levi is a Pteron, and part of the supernatural society that Allie did not know existed, and you have a good read. I enjoyed it and I’m looking forward to reading the next book in The Crescent Chronicles series, Focus.
Would I recommend it: I would recommend this book. It was a good, paranormal YA read.
Will I read it again: I will not.
About the book: Sometimes you just have to take flight.
Unable to resist the infuriating yet alluring Levi, Allie finds herself at the center of a supernatural society and forced to decide between following the path she has always trusted or saving a city that might just save her.
