The cemetery is quiet. Peaceful. The perfect place for murder.
A woman searching for her lost memories is lured to the private graveyard. Remembering just the last ten years, she is killed before she finds answers.
When she resurrects in a secluded mansion, she has complete amnesia. The trio who bring her into their home are able to discover only her Zari Hunter.
Nickolas, his cousin Lucia, and lifelong friend Darius decide to help Zari recover her memories. However, Zari’s rescuers are not what they appear to be and have their own reasons for helping. They recognize Zari as someone with powers like theirs. But she also carries a dark energy that threatens them all.
Zari’s powers are erratic, dangerous and flare up whenever she is near the enigmatic Nickolas. Learning to control them before they consume her, as well as her new friends, is not an easy task. And seeking answers brings threats from quarters not even Nickolas Thane had considered. Threats that have plagued the unknowing Zari for years.
Jenn’s love of writing started the year she received her first diary and Nancy Drew novel. Throughout her teenage years, she kept a diary of her personal thoughts and feelings but graduated from Nancy Drew to other mystery suspense novels.
Jenn often adds a thriller and suspense element to anything she writes be it Romance, Science Fiction, or Fantasy.
Boundless - technically Boundless (The Boundless Series, Book 1) - on the surface feels like a regular "girl discovers powers and crushes her enemies" type of story. Dig a bit beyond the surface and there's quite a bit more lurking underneath. A nascent romance. An undiscovered history. A great deal of mystery. It's the mystery that draws you further into the tale. I mean, don't get me wrong, the story is fun and I enjoyed the writing style, but the mystery beckons to my soul. I want to know more about the mythology of the world these folks live in. Like most talented writers, Nixon gives us this information in bits and pieces rather than tossing a dump at us. In fact, she doles it out so masterfully, you're still left with questions at the end.
Which, ya know, duh: It's book one of a series. You don't braindump all the important stuff in the first book of the series unless you want the rest of the series to be about how Zari and Nickolas learn to enjoy baseball and beer.
Jenn Nixon is a great writer. As always she's created an interesting world. You're invested in Zari and the mystery that unfolds. Will she discover the truth and how will it change and possibly save the life of another. The book definitely leaves you wanting more and sets up for further adventures with Zari, Nick, and the rest of the group.
