MY REVIEW:
So, I rarely get to say this, but I have always been a fan of gargoyles. It started with the cartoon when I was a little girl. I don't think I was the only one who fell in love with Goliath as a child!
Upon receiving this book, I was pleasantly surprised. I have never read a gargoyle shifter story as an adult, and wondered just what I was in for.
I loved that the book began with something a bit humorous. It made you like the characters quickly, and a likeable character is just as important as a believable plot. In this story, in the town of Woodland Creek, you really got a sense of this place.
I could easily see more books set here, around these characters. However, this book could have used a bit more danger. With gargoyles and wizards and hunters abounding, there was a lot more Lifetime movie than paranormal romance. There could have been much more of the supernatural world added in to add suspense to a story that was already very well written.
It was hot, I will admit that. I just wish there was more in-depth look inside that world Ms. Dawn created. It is so vivid and excellent, it deserved to be fully explored.
4/5--a great, quick read.
