*I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review*
Bestselling author Tanya Holmes has truly dazzled with her newest novel, The Darkest Frost: Volume 1, a dark, paranormal romance. This book blew me away; I've honestly never read anything like it. Let me forewarn you: it definitely has quite the cliffhanger, but with how I-can't-put-this-book-down good it was, I am more than willing to wait until Volume 2 comes out this fall.
This book was so completely unlike any other paranormal novel I have ever read. Tanya is a master of twists and turns that had my head spinning and my heart racing with every flip of the page! The Darkest Frost is so utterly unique that it had me quite literally gasping out loud while reading every new discovery.
Denieve Knight can read people's emotions; their auras. This is as far as her gifts lie until the ghost of her best friend appears to her, begging for her help regarding her former employer, the elusive and mysterious Doctor Braeden Frost. Braeden is completely different from anyone else Denieve has ever encountered, and she spends a countless amount of time attempting to figure out who he is and what he may be hiding. What makes the relationship between Braeden and Denieve so interesting to me is that they both have secrets, yet they are completely drawn to each other in a way neither has experienced before. What exactly are they hiding from one another, and will the truth ever become known? Guess we'll have to wait until the fall to find out!
If I could, I would give this book 6 stars. 5/5 stars for sure. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking for something different and exciting to read! 18+.
When the ghost of her best friend begs for her help, psychic detective Denieve Knight goes undercover as a live-in domestic to catch a killer. She sets her sights on the most likely suspect: her friend’s mysterious employer, Doctor Braeden Frost.
Dubbed "Dr. Death" by the press, the notorious hematologist is linked to nineteen other suspicious fatalities—all are former patients. The brooding recluse is a man of many secrets, the darkest of which may be lurking beneath the leather gloves he never removes. (Amazon)
