DEAD OF WINTER, the third book in Kresley Cole's Arcana Chronicles starts off shrouded with tension. Evie finds herself deep in trouble, still fighting for her life but this time, the stakes are higher and plenty of obstacles stand in her way. On either side of her is Jack and Death, two heroes that are dangerous and deadly in their own rights. When one is in trouble, Evie requires the other to help. But the question is, is he willing to assist his competition simply because she says so?

Kresley Cole's writing style has always been impeccable. However, a truly talented author can change and transform their style to fit the genre they are writing in. This Young Adult series is brimming with action and suspense. Throw in some baffling prophecies and readers have a series that feels much more developed than a simple YA book. Cole's more action- focused writing maintains a fast pace throughout effectively keeping readers on their toes and guessing what's to come.

Fans of Richelle Mead, Jennifer L. Armentrout and Wendy Higgins would welcome Cole's Arcana Chronicles with his sexier, edgier heroes and plot twists. DEAD OF WINTER certainly amps up the drama and stands amongst some of the best Young Adult series out there.
