Mel has a gift in which she has psychic-like dreams involving murder. The dreams hit close to home and begin to reveal undiscovered truths about Mel's past. I was immediately drawn into Mel's story and quickly became invested in her journey. Ella Graff has written a suspenseful, spicy, magical/spiritual tale making "Origins of Rage" a must-read for anyone who enjoys these elements. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

I really enjoyed reading this story. The pace of the book was steady and kept me interested in the story. It has intrigue, spice, paranormal and psychic powers and a wonderful love story. I thought it ended halfway through, but she threw in a twist to keep it going. A must read!

I totally loved reading this one! I really like this kind of story. I was skeptical of a few of the characters and that was great. It was definitely difficult to put down.
