This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free for a Blog Tour in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Oh how I enjoyed this book. There is something quite satisfying about reading fantasy books. We tell ourselves it's not true but hell it could be. There could really be these creatures out there laughing at us for not believing they really exist and sometimes I just want to believe that we are not the only ones.

Evie is a Nephilim. Her job is to protect the humans from the demons.  But Since her mentor got sick things have changed. There is a new master and he's changing all the rules. He's going against everything she stands for. Evie is very determined. Once she has something in her head she doesn't let it go easily. She is also very moral.

I really liked her friends Ash and Ling. They clearly cared about Evie and their old master Patrick. 

Marcellus, the new master is  evil. He has one goal on his mind and all he cares about is achieving that know matter who he hurts along the way. He is selfish

Patrick is a good man. I was sad to see him so unwell. It clearly affected Evie deeply it was very difficult to read.

Barry was a very interesting character.  Really hope we see more of him in the future.

Julian was hot. Really hot.

I found this book a bit of a slow burner at first. I found the first few chapters were quite slow and then before I knew it I had finished. I became a little hooked. I can't wait for book 2 and plan to check our some of the authors other books.
