I received this book by the Author for an honest review.I am a huge paranormal fan and this was a good book.  It has suspense, twist and turns, and even an element of didn’t see that coming.  Like most first paranormal books it moved a little slow because of the world building, but that is to be expected.  However, once it got going I had a hard time putting it down I just had to know what was going to happen and who was behind what was going on.This starts with a chance meeting between Quinn and Cade that gets intense fast. Cade doesn’t understand why he feels the way he does about a guy he saw for the first time.  Quinn knows it is because of the Magic they both have in them.  Quinn is a powerful warlock that is set on protecting Cade, warlocks and witches from the witchfinder that that has been wreaking havoc and killing warlocks and witches.Quinn and all warlocks take on a Withinner when they come of age.  The idea of the Withinner being able to switch places, gain knowledge, and help heal is an amazing concept that I enjoyed.  I thought it was going to be confusing reading about an individual talking to himself (or his “Magyckal alter ego”/Withinner) but it was not Taliesin, or Quinn’s Whithinner, was a great addition to the story line. I did not care for Taliesin in the beginning especially after his meeting with Cade for the first time.  However, he did grow on me and toward the end I’m not sure if I changed my view of him or if he started to grow and change as a Withinner, but I now find myself wanting to know more about him.The friendship that Quinn has with Jomo is more than a best friend almost like a brother in my opinion.  I enjoy seeing those two interact and then when Cade is added to the mix makes it that much better.  I also enjoyed seeing Quinn interact with the other characters because we were able to see all the different sides of Quinn and that was truly remarkable.  He was loving, caring and protective when it came to Cade but could be ruthless, demanding, and so cold in situations with others.The connection that Quinn and Cade have is amazing.  They love each other so much and don’t want anything to happen to the other.  To see Cade have to go through what he does with Quinn who puts himself in some positions to be harmed for the greater good at any given moment is heart wrenching.  I can see myself getting aggravated at Quinn for trying to protect Cade in the future.This is not a cliff hanger.  However, you do not get all the answers to all the questions that you will have at the end. There are still so many secrets about Quinn, Cade, and something tells me there is even more to Taliensin that I am hanging on wanting more.  I for one am wait for the next one to come out because I just have to know what is going to happen next.
