Smashwords book reviews by Cheryl Duval

  • Carnelian on Feb. 08, 2014

    I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the “Lovers of Paranormal” Group on Goodreads.com and the Author. I loved the story concept. This is a well written book with great characters. Seth had been searching for Mari for three years and when he finally found her he had to really work to make her fall in love with him. Then he had to tell her the unbelievable truth about himself. I liked the way the relationship and the story developed. Seth's two friends Ty and Dee were with him on his journey. Ty was a very likeable guy with a great personality and I instantly liked him. Dee, on the other hand, seemed very distant and hard to like until I neared the end of the story. Mari found out that her entire life had been like something she read in her fantasy novels and in the end she found, and lost, people that she loved. I am looking forward to the next book. There was one chapter from the next book at the end of Carnelian and now I'm sitting on pins and needles waiting until the next book comes out. I would highly recommend this book to readers of all ages. I think the YA audience would love it!

    I really liked this book. As soon as I finished it I bought the next two books in the series. The characters are great and the plot is amazing. Great book for adults as well as young readers.
  • The Legend of the Blue Eyes on Feb. 21, 2014

    I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the “Lovers of Paranormal” Group on Goodreads.com and the Author. Once I started reading I could not put this book down. The night human world the author created was different then any book I have read. The characters of Arianna, Devin and Turner are great. On her 16th birthday Arianna is thrown into a world that she could never possibly imagine and she discovers that her entire life has been a lie. She finds herself in the middle of a war that has been going on for centuries. The story is well written and captivating. I can't wait to read the next book. I highly recommend this book.
  • Becoming a Legend on Feb. 25, 2014

    I can't get enough of this story!! I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the “Lovers of Paranormal” Group on Goodreads.com and the Author. The story just gets better! I was so involved with the characters and the story that I could not put the book down. Arianna has so much to deal with and being new to this world and being a teenager just makes it that much more difficult. Her connection to her keepers is touching and emotional. She grows up a lot in this book and starts to take on her role as the leader a little at a time. I can't wait to read the next book. I highly recommend this book! I loved it!!

    I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the “Lovers of Paranormal” Group on Goodreads.com and the Author. Exceptional!! Arianna has finally come into her own and she is making the rules. She must follow old traditions but that doesn't mean she can't change some rules along the way. She has to fight for her freedom and the freedom of all night walkers. She is in constant jeopardy and her keepers have to work very hard to try to protect her. This book was awesome!! The series is well worth reading and I highly recommend it!!
