The book was amazing. Ms. Kennedy writes in a lyrical prose that paints a vivid world filled with magic and the joys and pains of love. She masterfully uses the intimacy of the first person narrative to immerse the reader into Gwynn's head and heart, allowing us to live the story not only through her Gwynn with Gwynn.Gwynn is haunted by her nightmares of a strange dog which hunts her in her dreams. Unhappy in her life and marriage, Gwynn walks out of a party and runs without an idea of where she's going or if she'll come back. All she knows is she needs out. Needless to say Gwynn ends up in a place she never expects--another dimension. I love the passion and strength I witnessed in Gwynn. She's smart and resourceful. I always like that in a heroine. I like the fact she doesn't wait around for Rogue to rescue her, even refusing his help at one point.I was extremely impressed at how Ms. Kennedy made Rogue come to life through Gwynn. I love heroes. I think that is the reason I tend to shy away from first person POV novels. They tend to be heroine centric. I experienced every bit of Rogue's passion, pain, and anguish. I think at times I almost forgot we were viewing the actions through Gwynn's eyes. I fell for Rogue with Gwynn.The plot was different. The magic and world building was different. The characters were robust and filled with life. I would definitely recommend this book for those looking for a different hue of the paranormal romance.***Book provided by the author for an honest review***
