I can't express enough how much I adore this series. The author does a fantastic job making Xoe face teenager problems and then having to deal with the paranormal world to boot. The fifth installment finds her dealing with a new problem, facing the death of a loved one and finding herself in the process. I highly recommend this series and anxiously await the release of book 6!

Another fantastic read
I have enjoyed the book a lot. I haven’t had time to read in a long time, so it was nice that one of the first series I started reading kept me interested. On to book six and hoping it’s as good!

Short but heartbreakingly sweet
The title says it all but I will say I love her books. There are a few minor editing errors but not deal breakers.

I read the whole series of her books they have multiple turns and twists to keep you wondering what is next.

Wow, this one has me in tears, so emotional towards the end. I love the series I just hope that the next book is less of a tear jerker

After reading "Forgotten Fires," it seems that my time with the Xoe Meyers series is coming to an end..Quite honestly, I'm tired of the less than in-depth plots, issues not fully being addressed, love triangle and editing issues. The humor just isn't enough for me anymore and the books feel like long chapters rather than full fledged novels.
This time Xoe, her father Chase and Dorrie are living in the underworld
Then, Xoe receives news that a girl from the local high school was murdered in a suspicious manner; so, she talks her father into letting her go back home to earth.
When Xoe arrives at her friend's house, they immediately begin making plans to investigate the murder and investigating puts her in direct contact with Jason who she hasn't seen or spoken to in awhile. Although she is attempting to work through her feelings for both Jason and Chase, she realizes she should table it until after she catches the killer.
Once again, the most important people in Xoe's life will be at risk and one or more may not come out alive. I needed so much more than what this cursory plot provided and it is clear this tend will not change in future installments; so, I will not be going on with this series.

Had this book in mt 'To Read' list for ages and didn't know what I was missing.
Another great installment. It was nice watching the characters, particularly the lead, grow.
Awesome characters and relationship, wonderful story telling and a wonderfully knew take on the whole thing. I was impressed and engaged and, naturally, ended up on a Xoe Marathon read. Of course, all good things must come to an end, and I think there are only 5 books.

Poor Zoe
Zoe still can't catch a break. So happy she finally told Chase she had filling and that she wanted to be with him eventually. Hated what happened to her dad I really liked him.
