review 1: I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this book. I know it was mentioned that it is a romantic suspense and it definitely left me with such a longing for the next book after that ending. Why, oh Why, must we wait for the next one??? I will say that in this story you hit the ground running. We are introduced to Essalin and Haven who are roommates in college. I love the sisterly bond that they had. They are out drinking one night when two men come home with them. (I must say that I didn't think this was very smart to begin with) I had the creeps reading about the men from the time they saw them in the club and knew they had to be bad news. Essalin gets drugged and Haven is kidnapped. That is probably one of my worst fears. While no one will believe Essalin when she tel... morels them that Haven did leave on her own, Haven's brother, Farren, does believe. So, Essalin and Farren set out on a journey to find Haven. There is major attraction between both Essalin and Farren and I felt myself pulled more to their story than to what happened with Haven. I felt that they even got so caught up in each other that Haven was placed on the back bunner. There were several twists that I was not expecting. I was curious as to what exactly Farren's job truly is and thankfully we do find that out. We are left though at a place in the book that leaves you wanting to know what will happen next! Overall, I thought it was a good story. Was I happy with everything in it.... no but then everyone's opinions are different. I will definitely be reading the next book to find out what in the world will happen to one of the characters.
review 2: I was provided with an ARC in exchange for an honest reviewWhen you don't know what to do yet with your life, just wait and see... things will go smoothly and probably unexpectedly. That is what happens to the heroine of this story, Essalin (can I just say how I love this name? yes, yes.. very unique!) . I seriously think that she has no idea of what to do with her life before bad things started happening. In a twisted way, what happened here is a blessing in disguise for her because her life was so dull and nothing was going the way she wants to. It's really hard when the parents want different things. I believe that Essa needed to have a backbone... and that's exactly what she gets in this book. :)Enter Farren... Well, Farren is our typical hero. He's protective, mysterious and he's hot. He's actually very good with Essa. He's patient and in all fairness, in their short time together, I felt like he really was into Essa. He's even sweet with her. :)Surprisingly, despite the main characters' age difference, their chemistry is very good. I like how they are with each other. Essa may be unsure about many things, but she has no doubts when it comes to her feelings for Farren. Farren on the other hand, is very considerate of Essa. In between their road trips, the worries, excitements and fears, they fall for each other and together, they are a sweet couple and I think many would like their pairing.The main plot takes them on a wild goose chase to find Haven, Farren's sister who's also Essa's best friend. The romance part? HIGH.. The action part? Hmmm.. not so much and I think it's not really the focus, if you ask me. It centralizes more on the mystery, the idea of what is really happening out there. They get to talk about how horrible it is and they get to experience it, but that's just for a few chapters. They didn't really dwell on it. I was actually hoping for more hard action parts. This only had a few near the end, which is probably the reason why I can't give it a higher rating. However, it has a good promise of more action on the next book. I really hope there are more. :)All in all, the topic is quite new to me and this book entertained me, so I'm giving it a 3! less
