Review: A Gritty Twist With Romance

I love Ms. Walker's gritty twist on fairy tales, and have followed the series as each one has been released. You won't get any spoilers from me, but I can tell you that the main characters are unstoppable, kick ass fighters who feel they don't need help from each other or anyone else. Grimm Tidings is gritty urban fantasy and paranormal romance that isn't for the faint of heart. It's a story of two people who excel at fighting and killing, but not loving. They both have pasts that they can't let go of, and trust is a foreign thing. How can they help each other? I found myself holding my breath near the end of the story; fearing that the things I wanted to happen wouldn't and it didn't matter that the characters were fictional. I wanted eyes and hearts opened. THAT is what a story like Grimm Tidings brings out in the reader: a need to see things resolved that keeps us riveted to the words on the page until the very end.
