This is the first book written by Logan Patricks that I've read and I can say in all honesty it won't be the last! I purchased this book with my own money and have written this review based on my own opinions without any influence from anyone else.I loved this book it was definitely a high to end 2013 on and a great final book boyfriend of 2013 too! So my 5*review...This is a fast paced, suspense driven page Turner that is mysterious, dark and beautiful. The strong and complex plot is full of mayhem, murder and conspiracy. And at the same time is a beautifully twisted love story. The unexpected twists and turns leave you wondering if anything is as it seems.Logan Patricks had written a fantastic web of lies, betrayal, deceit and love, that as the reader we must unravel in order to find the truth. The reading experience is marvellous and heart stopping. I was drawn in from the beginning, I was so hooked that "one more sentence" became "one more page" became "one more chapter" which then turned to "I don't want to go work, I NEED to read!" I felt every last emotion depicted throughout Semblance, I became suspicious, fearful, happy, sad and angry too. I laughed, I cried and I speed at my kindle too!All of the characters are extremely well written and developed. I adored both Aria and Shadow.Aria, she's a broke music student, struggling to pay her way through each semester. When she plays piano at a secret event in order to earn some money; she gets more than she bargained for and ends up in the middle of The Midnight Society. Aria is strong; stronger than she gives herself credit for. She's independent and never losses sight of her life goals. She had endured sooo much pain and heart break before she even meets Shadow; is because of this that you literally hurt for her in the end.Ah Shadow, *swoons* where to begin???Shadow also has suffered an unimaginable tragedy but he had allowed himself to be consumed by it and by his need for revenge. He is strong but has refused to use his strength to put his ghosts behind him and as a result is a dark and brooding man. When Shadow decides to show his capability to stop being pigheaded it is breathtaking. He is fiercely protective of those he cares about, and will stop at nothing to keep them safe.Aria and Shadow are like light and dark, Aria being the light to Shadow's dark, the chemistry and sexual tension between them was hot enough that I could practically feel my kindle burning in my hand!Aria plays a piece of music on the piano called Breathless, a piece of music that is composed and played by Logan Patricks; I absolutely love this piece of music. Breathless can be found on Logan Patricks website.Semblance is an amazing book, and an incredible start to The Midnight Society series. I cannot wait for book 2. If you don't own a copy of Semblance I strongly urge you to go and grab yourself a copy.
