In an exciting twist with this author, she presents a YA sci-fi romance that incorporates shifters. I know this author under a different pen-name than her more adult titles: I was excited to read the first in her new writing adventure. I have a great admiration for her work for the 18 group, and she has not disappointed in this YA work.

Yseult has managed to transition her skills for crafting relationships that are believable and emotional, with a definition and clarity that is rare in many books geared to this market. Although just a short story, with frequent time line switches that detail the growing relationship between Zaren and Kris to their desire to protect each other after their forbidden encounter and adventure, the story doesn’t feel confusing or muddled.

The worlds and their expectations for each in their own community are clearly detailed, and their emotional connection to one another, which dances with the romantic, is only heightened with the sweetly detailed scenes of learning to communicate with one another, sharing words and thoughts as they travel through Haldae together. Of course, there are more chapters in this story yet to be written: the author left us with plenty of questions and a huge ‘what next’ that will keep readers hungry for the next installment.

A perfect starter for this series, with intrigue and crafting that will capture the imagination of readers both young and old.

I received an eBook copy from the author for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review, and all conclusions are my own responsibility.
