As a clairvoyant, Jade has a hard time letting other people touch her. She’s built up mental walls throughout the years, but the stronger the emotion, the harder it is to keep them at bay. With a single touch, she can read a person’s emotions and relive memories. And when an accident brings Jade to the brink of death, she will return to the living world changed, and brimming with new darker power. As she struggles to contain the new power welling inside of her, she helps the police search for three missing girls. Family secrets will begin to surface, and Jade will find herself in the middle of a power struggle of magical proportions.
I Am Jade is a fast-paced read, with a unique point of view. While the reader views the world primarily through Jade’s eyes, there are tidbits dropped in from a secondary character’s point of view named Kincaid. After almost every Jade chapter, the reader is exposed to his raw emotions and thoughts about Jade. These small snippets entice the reader to find out what is happening between the two characters as they become further entwined together as the story progresses. I loved reading about Kincaid’s thoughts, and I wished there had been more from him. But I understand it would have also taken away from the allure of his character if readers had been given more information.
The plot is a fast progression from start to finish. I would have liked to see Jade stay longer in certain plot lines, and take more time to figure things out, but that’s because I am a diehard character development fan. Even with its quick progression, Victoria Danes makes sure all the pieces line up and the reader is given enough information to avoid confusion.
Jade is a strong-willed and independent heroine. She refuses to let people keep her down or hold her back. Filled with action, romance and mystery, this book is sure to keep you hooked!
I will be keeping my eye out for future books by Victoria Danes. I do recommend mature audiences read this one as there are adult scenes.
This book took me by surprise. I’m not sure what I expected but I was blown away at how much I enjoyed it! Jade Sinclair is one of those characters that make no apologies and stands her ground. She’s tough and can handle herself. Do I love her? YES! The story itself was good. The pacing was perfect. There were a couple of scenes that didn’t make sense and I had to go back read them again. There weren’t many so it wasn’t a huge hit to the story. The characters are good as well. The author threw in so many twists that she had me sitting here with my mouth open. Well done Miss Dane!
This is a great and delightful read! I was drawn in right from the beginning and now I need more! I like the author’s writing style and she now has a new fan. I can’t wait to read more! I give this 4 stars.
Jade is a clairvoyant and helping the local PD with a case. What she doesn’t know is how this case will change her life.
I enjoyed this book because:
– Strong Heroin
– Complicated relationship
– Secrets, and more secrets
– Twist after twist
– Supernatural
– An angsty ending.
– Plenty of action.
OH MY GOD! THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING! It was a page turner right from the start. I loved the twists in the story! My favorite line is “She calls to me…” I get shivers every time I read it. I’m so, so glad that book two is already published because it would have been torture to wait and see what happens next. I already can’t wait for book 3! I was gifted this book in exchange for my honest review.
I need the next book NOW!!!! Jade is a conundrum of supernatural abilities. After finding out who her parents were it made more sense, but I still feel like there’s something the author has yet to share with us. Perhaps in the next book. Of course you can’t help but fall for Adrian. Then there Stephen who keeps you guessing throughout the book. What is he? Who is he? What’s he hiding? Vampires were briefly touched on. Even though it’s a supernatural book, the story isn’t heavy on the supernatural which, I think, makes it a good read for even those who don’t normally read paranormal romance or urban fantasy.
Very Independent woman. Werewolf/clairvoyant
A very interesting character a clairvoyant that feels pain. She is so powerful she can touch something & play a scene for everyone to see what really happened. She works with the cops & runs a detective agency. Always busy helping people. Then she gets bitten by a werewolf. And life gets even more complicated!
This is the first story I’ve read by this author and I would read more.
It features a strong female lead that I love in stories. She is independent and fights for what she wants.
I cant wait to read book 2
This book was everything I could have hoped for! It was action packed with a twist on the paranormal aspects with Jade being a power absorber (I have a feeling this comes into play even more as the story continues), and it kept me on my toes, constantly wondering what would happen next with the characters. I admire the strength and determination Jade still had to help others and to keep her freedom once unknown events and life changes were thrust upon her. I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait to read more about Jade and Adrian!
Jade is a strong-willed clairvoyant determined to stay independent and free from those trying to control her. As a PI, this story is a crime mystery mixed with fantasy elements, and then splashed with the right amount of heated passion makes ‘I am Jade’ a captivating read.
If you enjoy supernatural beings and an empowering female lead, then I’d recommend reading this book. The ending has a great hook that will make you wish the book wasn’t ending. I’m looking forward to reading book 2!
