Review:
~I’d like to thank the author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!~
Going into this one, I knew I was going to like it, but I didn’t think it would be this good!
This book got me from the very beginning. Although it didn’t start with something epic, or a tragedy, it was written in a way that hooked me and quickly got my attention.
As the book went along, more mysteries were revealed that reeled me into the book more and more. Also, I suspect an enemies-to-lovers romance budding, which made the book a 100x better!
Another thing that made me enjoy this book, is that the main character was written a lot more realistically than a lot of others in works similar to this one. I don’t want to say much and spoil the book, but, for example, when the MC got shocking news from a stranger, she didn’t immediately accept it, but she doubted it throughout a good majority (about ⅔) of the book.
All in all, this was a great book, plus it gave me Black Panther vibes (calling all Marvel fans!!)! I loved the characters, plot, and I can not wait to get my hands on the sequel!
Things I Loved:
-the book was fast-paced
-the plot was well done
-I loved the characters
-I got Black Panther/Marvel vibes from this one
-I suspect there might be a ship (romance) sailing our way in the upcoming books!
Things I Didn't Love:
-The only thing is maybe that it didn't start on a dramatic note
In Conclusion:
If you're a Black Panther fan or are looking for a short paranormal story, this one's for you!

Totally!
