I really connected with the characters in this story, and not just the two main characters, Emma and Joe, but with a couple of Emma’s siblings, too. I cared about them all. Joe’s character was missing a little something in the romance department, but it was easy to understand why he was the way he was. I also enjoyed the paranormal/fantasy aspects. I had no trouble picturing many of the places described. The story was unique and unpredictable.On the downside, I found several scenes rather confusing. At times I couldn’t make heads or tails of what exactly was happening. Sometimes the point of view shifted without warning. These factors diminished the quality of the overall story for me.Overall, it had some issues, but I still felt like there was a strong story there. And, despite the issues, I still strongly connected to the characters, and that was a big plus! I think this is a good story and with some editing could become great! So, 3 stars. I’d definitely read more from Mary Beth Bass, and I look forward to the sequel!*I received a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.*
