Publisher's Summary

"You see, there is safety in simplicity...in a life of simple peace, where the electricity doesn't dance across the backs of my eyelids, and the sparks don't slither over my consciousness. Only asinine peace, where my paintings don't seem to paint themselves, leaving me with terrible feelings of premonition and a chill beneath my fingernails."

Seraph Black used to think that she was prepared for anything. She could last days without eating and she always walked away from the violent altercations with her father relatively unharmed. She survived working at the club and the drive to school every day in her mother's rust-bucket of a car...but it all changed when Noah and Cabe came bulldozing into her life, careless of the precious secrets they picked apart in their quest to take over her world. She was even less prepared for the mysterious Miro and Silas, and nothing could have prepared her for the bond. The connection. The reason for it all.

Someone wanted her to stay away from her new friends, but she wasn't willing to do that.

Everyone had secrets.

She wanted to know theirs. They wanted to own hers.

And the stalker?

He seemed to know everything already.

Not sure

As others have said, it's a bit of a slow start. I think I'll have to listen to it again just make sense of all the characters. I think the narrator makes it a hard book to understand. She tends to rush words and end each sentence on an outward breath, hence making the words hard to hear. I found this really distracting. She does the different voices well enough however. There's Zero steamy scenes but maybe later on in the series? I'll continue reading as the story line has got my attention. There is also an issue with sentences being repeated which is an audio fault I think.

ehhh nahh

This story was meant to intrigue me, but the large amount of secrets eventually just annoyed me and made the story hard to follow. The complicated love pentagon surprisingly didnt bother me, but with all the secrets involved got pretty confusing. The moment the "love at first sight"/ "soulmates" concept was introduced, I have to admit I rolled my eyes. The reader was a little quick and the tone of her voice kept rising at the end of every sentence, but once i got used to it an it was fine.

Great book

Very very very slow start but wait for it. Well worth it. This book opens up like a flower and with it the characters grow. Fantastic
