This the 4th novella in the series has so many twists and turns it is the most thrilling yet! Cain goes rogue and enjoys it! We wonder if Sindy is safe and are torn on our wanted outcome! Felicity remains torn but there is romance afoot. Ben hears of Allies secret lover and isn't amused while Allie finds out that Cain knows him.

As a reader I got fully immersed in this story and it had me feeling so many emotions I couldn't put it down! The authors easy style of writing with continuous character development, answering questions but creating more and the ability to make me feel the emotions of the characters has her as one of my favourite authors and these novellas my new addiction.

Please do read the others before this as you really do want to get to this point!

Still in love with this series!!!!

Book 4 how you did not disappoint. This book continues after book 3 and we see some new things and other things that start to unravel or take shape. The continued storyline is still amazing as well as the characters. We learn more about the characters and their beliefs. Will the trio stay friends or will things begin to change? Will there be a killing spree? A new romance? You must start this series now as it will not disappoint. Now onto book 5!!

Felicity is really starting to warm up with Cain and I am so loving that. This book follows the after effect on what happened with Ben and his last encounter with Sidney. Once again Ben is so hilarious and sarcastic. I love the fact that Cain also loosened up a bit and actually started to have a little fun and be very humorous. I loved the fact that Sidney got a little dosage of her own medicine thanks to Felicity. I highly enjoyed this read as I do all of the Novellas I have read prior.

*This Book Was Given To Me In Exchange For An Honest Review*

This is the forth novella in the Almost Human series by author Melanie Nowak and unlike some series they do need to be read in order.

So this series has finally hit it's stride in this one. We know the characters .... the plot is out in full effect ... we have questions .... we have intrigue .... and we have one very addicted reader! I felt at the end of the third installment that good things were coming and I was right!

This for me was a 5 star read and I can't wait to get to the next installment!

Book 4

A great continuation of the Almost Human series. Each story is interesting and well written, and adds more to the story than the previous one. I look forward to reading the rest of the series, and then read it all together. The series is wrapped around vampires, lust and desire, and being human or almost human. The interactions with the characters give more depth to the story. Well written.
