Otherworldly Creatures. Dazzling Magic. Fiery Romance.
Shiloh Ravenwolf thought she was getting used to the strange
events in Whispering Pines, until the full moon brings another surge of
supernatural threats to her coastal town. Ferocious wolves, deadly
necromancers, and shambling zombies have descended upon the neighborhood, so
Shiloh needs to gain control of her magical abilities—fast!
It sucks that she has a crippling fear of the dark, which for a
demon hunter can be an epic problem. But she spends so much time wallowing in
the darkness, how can she not become a part of it?
When her classmates are attacked by a mysterious creature and
her father is murdered, Shiloh vows vengeance. Forcing her phobias aside, she
forms an unlikely coven of supernaturally gifted teens to help her eradicate
this menace. Except that’s not all Shiloh has to worry about. She’s battling a
different monster within herself and struggling not to become the very thing
she fights: evil.
But with demon blood inside her—anything can happen…
My Review:
Having really enjoyed Beautifully Broken, Book I in Sherry Soule’s
Spellbound Series, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to read Book II as
well. It started out rough for Shiloh, nothing new, and boy, once again, I
loved the way she handled herself. I can say in all honesty, that this YA series
so far is something that I would actually recommend to someone with teenage
daughters, if you know what I mean. Great, strong, female character lead, and
age appropriate content with quite the dark and paranormal edge to it. I think
Sherry Soule has a great handle on what a paranormal YA series book should
contain.
Honestly, I just love Shiloh. A great character. Strong and weak
in all the right places. What she has to deal with is a lot, and she does so
with the grace of a strong and big-hearted teen with special gifts.
The town, her friends, her enemies, are all portrayed well by
Ms. Soule, written well, with a nice balance of description and action to keep
a reader turning the pages. I look forward to more in this series. Oh, and can I say that I just love her book covers :)
