My Review
Hmmm, we should call this one a ya paranormal mystery because most of the book is spent trying to find out what the Foster brothers are. The other part is trying to figure out which brother Eden will chose. Lol it's a fun young adult book with a great mystery plot but I wished for a little more... Surprise. I know, it's just for once I want something nice to happen lol but the dark aspects are what make the book so awesome. It definitely kept my attention.
I really like Eden. I also really liked her BFF Liv and her aunt Essie. Eden isn't so typical with being the main character. Especially since everyone thinks her family is insane and she's one of them. It's horrible how they bully her. She's still caring and unselfish and kind to others who are bullied.
The we have Cardalian and Jaxson. They are new in school. Different. Brothers. They are the polar opposite of each other. I liked the extreme mysteries surrounding them. How Eden tried so hard to figure out the difference and how wrong she was. And of course I just like that they were HAWT!
I really liked the writing style. The flow is nice, it kept me reading non stop, and I liked all the twists. The ending is a whammy though. Heads up on that cliff hanger!! So while I wait for more from book 2, I say 4.5 PAWS!!
