My Review:
5 Out Of 5 Stars
Genre: Mystery, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense--
Tiger has been locked away his whole life, used as a weapon and treated like an animal. But the voice has been telling him that it is time to get out and exactly how. Injured, barely able to stay on his feet, he waits for the girl he knows is coming. Kristina is having a bad day, made worse by the weather and her broken down truck. When she thinks she may have hit a man with her car, she has no idea what to do. when he asks her for help she has no choice but to do what she can- but she has no idea what the consequences of helping this man really are.
This was such a fantastic read! I really had no expectations starting this book and the synopsis does not do the story justice all with it's vagueness, so I pretty much entered the story blindly and could not have been happier with what I got. I was instantly swept into the story and I did not put it down until the end. What a ride! There was action, mystery, supernatural, and swoony romance. It all blended into a well rounded story that I really enjoyed.
Character development was crucial to me liking the story so much. We have dual narration (which I love!) from both main characters. Kristina was a tough, no nonsense character who liked things the same and to fit within her very structured life and this situation completely was outside her comfort zone. I loved watching her battle her feelings and attraction to Tiger and end up doing the morally right thing even if it was outside of her norm. Tiger on the other hand only knew rage, abuse and hunger when he was introduced, with no concept of the world at all. He had to learn how to basically be a person, how to interact with others and who he really was without a cage and violence. The dynamic between the two was just what I wanted and there was no insta-love here, but instead something that they both had to work for, which made it so much better.
The ending of Deliverance made it seem like this was the end, with everything wrapped up and all the feels, but since I know that this is the first in a series I have to read the next book to see what will happen next. This was my first read by Kristy but I cant wait to pick up more books by her in the future (and Dissension is a must, no question about it)!
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy.
