This series was an odd start for me. I really like Lexie but maybe it's the amount of characters that are introduced in so little time? It was something I really couldn't put my finger on, but I can say this, I love paranormals and this one did a great job at keeping me entertained. The false start was just a bit of a hiccup and I really enjoyed the first story but even more the second. I would want to warn the younger kids that this does have a bit of sauciness in it. Not a ton but enough to maybe want you to skim a little. Or do the complete opposite and make you enjoy it even more!!The romance was a little fast for me though but I realize sometimes these things have to happen. Torin and Lexie were dreaming of each other before they actually met so it's almost like they already knew each other. So I do see how that would encourage romance more than usual. So this portion definitely does not detract from the story.What I enjoyed about this mostly is that you don't know who to trust! I love that! I wasn't able to pinpoint who were the bad guys! And in book two we get to know more about Liz! Lexxie's fabulous friend who seems so fun but still down to earth at the beginning of Fate Fixed. And now there's a new romance brewing. It's just as fun as the first, definitely intriguing and still as much mystery.My favorite portion is learning more about the Dhampire legends. The twists that Bonnie adds in are fantastic. The lore is really interesting and it doesn't bog down but makes everything even more tantalizing!I would still recommend this for the older teens out there. It's a bit dark and definitely romantic. But overall this series is just plain fun!
