Bitten at Daybreak is a fast-paced paranormal romantic suspense novel (that is a mouthful). It picks up where Bloodlust by Midnight ends with Phoebe following Seth into an alternate reality. I recommend reading the Last Witch Standing series in order. It will help you understand the characters and how Phoebe ended up in her current predicament. I found Bitten at Daybreak to contain good writing with a fast pace. There are strong characters in the book that include witches, fae, shifters and vampires. The point-of-view switches between worlds. Phoebe in the alternate universe and Dax in their world. The two storylines tie together, and I like how everything was wrapped up at the end. I especially appreciated the epilogue. It was nice to see Phoebe develop as a person. She is still her strong, determined self but Phoebe comes to some realizations regarding her relationship with Dax (I do not want to spoil the book for you). I do want readers to know that there is foul language, extreme violence and steamy intimate scenes. Phoebe and Dax are in for blood-tingling adventure in Bitten at Daybreak.
She found her brother–at what cost?
Phoebe found herself in another world–strange–yet familiar. She hadn’t had time to talk to her brother before she was forced into a role that was her but wasn’t.
While Dax, her partner, wondered what had happened to her? Where was she? Why didn’t she contact him? When she’d been spotted at the last place he expected he had to wonder if the injury she’d sustained had unknown effects.
Meanwhile, Phoebe began to see more of her friends and enemies–but not them? It took a conversation with her brother to get the explanation she wouldn’t believe if she hadn’t witnessed proof.
For more, you’ll need to read so no spoilers here. Would the price of getting her brother be too high?
WOW! I knew at the end of Bloodlust By Midnight that this book was going to be epic, and I was so right! This book, third in the series, is a curveball to everything we thought we knew in this universe. Phoebe swaps places with her other self from an alternate universe in order to get some answers from her estranged brother but she discovers so much more. Will she ever make it back to her real life and Dax and the Void or will she have to languish in a world not her own? I love the world building in this series and to find that there is yet another dimension just shows the utter creativity of this author. I love these characters so much. This is a great series to get immersed in!
Well, that was interesting, I was intrigued at the end of the previous book as to where Deanna Chase was heading with Phoebe crossing realities but wow that story certainly kept me guessing and exceeded my expectations greatly.
I have to say in the beginning I was full of angst how was our Phoebe going to handle the alternative reality and how would our Dax handle a different Phoebe, would he know this one wasn’t his… omg the angst was real and gut-churning stuff I loved it all…lol
Finally getting the story about Seth and sorting out both realities, figuring out how the portals came to be and then tieing it all together took some serious storytelling it was really amazing and just made me love Phoebe even more than I already did, our Phoebe is a total badass.
Oh my stars! This book both broke my heart and made it soar. Phoebe has to deal with the place she found herself in after the events at the end of the previous book. And it’s so different yet so similar, she doesn’t know how to deal with the people. But deal with them she must so she can get back to her own people. Vague? Yes, because I don’t want to spoil this wonderful book. I have come to greatly admire this author’s writing, and this book is one of the reasons why: characters to love, a plot to get wrapped up in, and fantastic writing. I was pulled in immediately and didn’t want to come up for air until the book was over. Speaking of the book being over, I hope there is so much more to come even if the plot wrapped up in this one. I highly recommend this book! I was provided the e-book which I voluntarily reviewed.
