Review: Closer
Rating: 4 out of 5

Closer is what I would call a sister book to the Mageri series. It is a stand alone book or rather novella, but, I am glad I read the Mageri series first because it helped me to understand the Breed world. In this book we have Kane and Caroline, both of whom are sensors. Kane is extra sensitive, though, so the emotions he picks up are magnified. As a result, he has cut himself off from touching others. He wears gloves to protect himself. Caroline is the opposite. She can't transfer. She can receive but not transfer emotions through touch. At about halfway through the book I finally realized that Kane has a connection to a character in the Mageri series but you'll have to read it to find out what it is.All Kane wanted that night was to get some dinner. Little did he know how this one night would change his life. He encounters a human man but when they touch, Kane realizes this man is the worst kind of evil. He is a serial murderer of women. But, through this encounter, he meets Caroline. Can he save Caroline's life or is it Caroline that will save his life?This was a very sweet story and it added another dimension to the Breed world. I would love to see Kane show up in future books of the Mageri series.
