Carolyn Jewel has created a very unique world within this book. At times I felt that world was too complex because there's a fine line when an author is world building -- You don't want to seem like you're talking down to the reader and you don't want to make it hard for the reader to keep with the storyline. I also felt at times some of the characters weren't as well developed because they just came out of the blue without really any explanation as to why there were there in the first place.

I feel the need to let you guys know that some of the love scenes will not be to everyone's cup of tea. The love scenes with Nikodemus and Carson were pretty hot! And, I liked that after everything Carson been through, she was still a good person and wanted to help people in need. Overall, I thought this was a pretty decent book in a unique world and should definitely be on people's to read list.
