Once I started this series, I couldn 't stop. Can't wait to read them all. Well written.
Good pricing too.

Good plot

I am enjoying the story that is unfolding, but I swear that Clarity was called the fifth sister, so I am a little confused, going to have to go and look that up. I just didn't want to stop mid book to check it out, so that's a good thing.

I very much enjoy this series and the writing! I loved meeting Glo and Finn. There seems to be more left of their story ... I'm hoping they show up again in another book. After 4 books now, I have learned that all of these characters intertwine and there is always the possibility of getting more of them in another book. Which I look forward too ... yet I am always left wanting more and thinking there just wasn't enough in that story ...

I agree with other reviews...I was left wanting more from this book. It seemed as if we didn't get enough of Glo's and Finn's story like we did from previous sister's with just their one book. Clarity's story encompassed more than one but at least we got most of her background. I'm still wanting more info on Finn!

This is a series of well written, non-traditional, love stories with super natural twists.
But don't let that scare you, Z.L.Arkadie breaks all the rules and keeps you intrigued all the way through. If you don't like Mills & Boon or traditional boy meets girl...Z.L. Arkadie is the author for you. Try the Parched Novels - I gauruntee you won't be disappointed!

This is the best book in this series so far. But the others were GREAT! They aren't long, but when reading them it FEELS like it. Which is wonderful :) I'm not usually a fan of series' that change point of view and characters between books, but this series is awesome.

As I am new to good reads & am just now adding my books I will not be giving detailed reviews at this point. Hopefully I will have time to edit & give reviews later.
