thrilling ride in Broken Wings.
My Review:
4 out of 5 stars
This was the first book I read in the Woodland Creek series,
and it took no time and all for me to want to know more about this incredible
town and the shifters that live in it. Pegasus shifters?? Definitely a first for me, and I loved it!
From the beginning, my heart broke for Plymouth and Paloma,
because as a reader, I could feel their longing, and the fact that they were
meant to be together, but neither realized at the time just how magical their
connection actually was. Instead,
Plymouth tried to let her live a normal human life, keeping his shifter secret
from her for her own good, while watching her date another guy that everyone
involved (including us readers) knew was a guy that was in no way meant for
her. We just didn't know HOW not meant
for her he was. There were several
twists and turns throughout the story that kept me on my toes, kept me reading,
and read it in one sitting!
Woodland Creek is a unique town, with many unique
secrets. It seems like the biggest
secret is the amount of shifters that live among the humans, who have no idea,
but there's so much more. In this story
we find there are also some dark secrets...some big ones...that even the
shifters don't know about. This story
was part paranormal romance and part mystery, and the mystery definitely kept
my interest piqued to the very end.
Throughout the story, there was no question there was an
undeniable attraction that would never stop pulling at Plymouth and
Paloma. However, there were times where
I felt parts of where their attraction was mentioned were a bit distracting from
what was going on at that moment -- a conversation, for example, where the
author added in mention of one of them feeling a sexual desire right at that
moment, where at that moment it felt like more of a forced mention, than a
necessary mention. However, any sex scenes
themselves were very well written, in no way awkward, and flowed very
well. And as many of us know even as
readers, this is certainly not always an easy thing for a writer to do!
This was a very good story, mystery, and romance. I loved the main characters, including
Plymouth's sister. How the story ends is not only very surprising, but definitely
leaves you to wonder what will happen in the future for all of the characters
involved!
