My rating:
Blurb:My name is Vinna, and I’ve been keeping a lot of secrets.
You would too if you'd experienced some of the weird shit I have: red-eyed monsters chasing me, markings on my body appearing out of nowhere, a strange power that crackles colorfully over my skin from time to time, and don't get me started on the weapons I can conjure up almost out of nowhere.
Lucky for me, I have yet to meet someone whose ass I couldn't kick, inside the ring or out. I put that to the test when I run headfirst into a fight that brings all my secrets, and reality as I know it, crashing down around me.
Now, I'm looking for answers and trying to piece together what the hell is going on. Paranormal is my new way of life. It's not going to be easy, and I'm not exactly welcome.
That is, until I meet the boys, and trust me, they are anything but boyish. I'm up against elders who think I’m too powerful, a family who views me as a threat, and something lurking in the shadows that's been coming for me my whole life.
There’s not a chance in hell I’m going down without a fight. I’m not lost anymore, and I'm about to show this world exactly what I can do.
Author’s Note: This is the first book in The Lost Sentinel Series and ends with a cliffhanger. This book is a medium burn reverse harem story, intended for ages 18 years and older. This story contains strong language, sexual situations, and violence.
Book two coming in January
This story started out awesome. It was fast paced and Vinna was a bad mama from gate. The first fighting scene was pretty cool since she was just fighting some folks then when they started to win, she switched sides to even it out. LOL, sounds like something I would do.
She meets some dudes who take her to some secret trainging facility. Where she meets a group of boys, and I do mean boys. I found them fun, easy going and a bit immature but for some reason she liked them. I don’t think Vinna was really taking anything to seriously while she stayed there because she was so confident in her own abilities to protect herself in case something happened. Her abilities were superior to almost anyone else’s but I found that a bit too easy for the storyline. It was like no matter what happened she had a coutner move for it and I didn’t really see her challenged and/or evolve. There wasn’t a lot of depth if that makes sense. But that’s exactly what I was looking for so I ate it all up.
Things moved at a moderate pace until the end, then things started popping off left and right. It got a bit confusing because so many characters were introduced and they were all into something or other. I could barely sift through who knew what and who was in cohoots with who. It was entertaining as hell though so I’m gonna read the next one.
