~Summary~

 

Evie's always thought of herself as a normal teenager, even though she works for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, she's falling for a shape-shifter, and she's the only one who can see through glamours.

But now Evie's dreams are filled with haunting voices and cryptic messages--and she's realizing that she may be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.

So much for normal.

 

~My Thoughts~

 

Why have I just now gotten to this!?!? I had some high expectations for this book and guess what? It didn't fall short because of those. Instead my heart grew bigger and this book I believe beat those high expectations.

 

Evie, omg what can I say to do her character justice. She truly is a teenager besides all the adult things she has to do, is put through. Her character didn't feel forced and wasn't a try hard teen, she's one I see I could totally hang out with. She was very believable and I just couldn't get enough of her. Her love for teen drama shows, her love for shopping, and her amazing sense of humor made her the most awesomeness character I have read in a long time....and I read quite a bit.

Because of this I was able to be sucked in. Not that I'm saying the loads of action didn't help a little bit in that too haha. And boy is there loads of action, from the first page to the last, most definitely an sitting on the edge kind of book. A page turner and I just can't wait to get my hands on the next book in this outstanding series.

So if you're looking for originality then go pick/borrow this book up cause it'll have you wrapped around its finger in no time. With deceive in the werewolf world, with a creepy stalker elf that wants to make you his, with a mermaid as a best friend that's there to watch your teen drama shows with you, with gross old vampires that wear young glamour that think they can beat you and Tasey.  With a whole world of new thought of creatures this paranormal lover has seen, all those makes this quite a mind blowing read.

Wow, just all of it was amazing! I honestly can't believe how long it has taken me to get to this haha. Though, I'm glad it has taken me this long since the whole series is out now! :D So now I don't have to wait a year to get to them haha. I'm honestly lost for words after all that up there now. I'm speechless. It's that amazing and if you're looking for something new and refreshing then this book is most definitely for you. If you feel like you are in a paranormal slump then pick up this book, it'll bring you right out of that slump. Trust me. And the blooming relationship she has with a shape-shifter (not a werewolf peoples but something so much cooler!! Haha) is absolutely charming and I just couldn’t get enough of it. Makes my hopeless romantic heart beat just a little faster.

It will take possession over you


Happy Reading Everybody!
