review 2: Firstly let me tell you, when I saw this cover I was drooling. Simply gorgeous. I want to marry it, and have its babies.I have heard amazing things about Ms Crane’s books but finally got a spare moment and just had to read this immediately. It starts off with a bang! Seventeen year ... moreold Lauren is having a BAD day! Everything that can go wrong, does. *giggle* We have all felt like that! That first chapter just pulled me in. I needed to know more about Tristan, this boyfriend that completed her and had her so distracted everything else paled in comparison. Rut-roh. Tristan sucks hairy balls and is becoming more of a controlling bully every day. I hated him from the first minute. I wanted to get to know these lifelong friends Lauren cares so much about and forget all about scumbag bully boyfriend, and low and behold, I found myself kicking back eating and having slumber parties and remembering the good ol days with the girls.The gang appears to have gone through so much in the ‘Keegans Chronicles’ series and also the spin off ‘Anna’ that they work as a well oiled machine. Loyalty is thick, and friendship is forever. This was so evident here. The concern for each other jumped off the page. Ms Crane made me feel I was part of the gang and I could feel my surroundings and the emotions going through Laurens mind as things were quickly spinning out of control. Tristan couldn’t be using her. Could he? He loved her. Everything was perfect. She was just busy, wasn’t she? She didn’t need her friends, did she? She had Tristan. Her electrical telekinetic magick was embarrassingly lame, wasn’t it? What could she ever do with it?I was attached to my kindle shouting at Lauren at times, and grinning and giggling at others. It takes a wonderful author to get me so worked up about a character that I physically want to harm her in a spot or 2. I read this in one sitting because I just had to know if Lauren was going to take off her rose colored glasses and what her reaction would be once she did. Whoa! I wasn’t disappointed. She was one feisty chickadee. There was no way she was going down without a fight.If you are looking for a wonderful read with characters you will simultaneously love and hate, friendships that will make you smile, and may get you rooting for revenge, you must check this book out. I am off to read Keegan’s Chronicles so I can learn more about this world that has witches, weres and faeries plus so much more to love. Well done Ms Crane... less
