4 Stars!I didn't read the first book in the series so I didn't know what to expect of this. I was actually not expecting much to be honest.But... I was wrong!!This book was so much better than I thought it would be. You don't have to read the first book to understand what's going on but I guess it would be helpful. There were a lot of terms that I didn't have a clue what it meant. However you get into it pretty quickly and everyone with a brain will know what those shifter terms are supposed to be.Okay, let's start the actual review. I have to apologize because I think I won't be able to write this review without spoilers. It's just not possible with this book.So from here on expect spoilers or quit reading.There was actually not sooo much going on in the whole book. If I had to narrow it down to the major events I would say there were three parts to this book. However this book did not lack anything. From the first page on I was hooked. There was so much action and angst and more action going on in the first part. I couldn't put the book down. And it was not just action. Abby Niles was able to bring every emotion across so well, it was awesome. I felt what I was supposed to feel in every scene. The characters got to me and I could totally relate to why they were acting the way they were.Normally when this typical storyline occurs were one of the heroes is like "I love you so much but in order to protect you I can't tell you and we have to separate" I feel like this: come on. Everyone knows ones you tell him / her the problem will solve itself.. blablabla...This was one of those storylines. However it worked!!The author was so good at describing the situations and bringing across the feelings I got goose bumps.I really felt Liam's pain when being rejected by Ava.And I loved the scene when Ava returns to her room the first time after the kidnapping. It was not a major scene but I loved how the author described how hard it was for Ava to enter that room and how she did it anyway. It was great!To come back to those major three parts of the book. That was good! The book was fast paced and there was no dull moment even when there wasn't any action going on at the moment.I can't give the book five stars though because I had the feeling it was not super original. It was a very nice paranormal romance and I enjoyed reading it a lot. The author is very talented. But the storyline was not extraordinary and didn't blow me away.If you enjoy a good shifter story this is your book to get your fix :)
