I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a fair, honest review.First I want to say that I absolute loved this book, enjoyed every second. I enjoyed the world building and the attention to detail that Michaela poured into this novel. I loved the bits of romance mixed into the paranormal/action nature of the book, especially that the romance was allowed to be there, but it didn't overwhelm the rest of the story.I was immediately enamored of the book when I found it started with a glossary and a character reference sheet. The Greek words, which were thankfully translated into English in the glossary, were among the details I most enjoyed in the book.The first piece of narrative is labeled "prologue"- another thing I'm a sucker for in books I like to read. Beginning with "Daddy's words..." led me to surmise that this was a flashback, a memory, probably from the main character nicknamed "Chevy." Soon the author does let us know that it's a memory, a bad dream. The story moved quickly from there in the most pleasing way. The dream sequences and flashbacks throughout were further enjoyable to me.I don't like reviews that practically give away the whole book so I'll stop here, but in ending I will say that the attention to detail, the wonderfully paced action, the whole world we're asked to enter, makes this book a must read.
