Skye ran away after her mother died. She scrabbled to survive until a named Hunter found her and took her under his wing. Hunter wanted to enact justice in a lawless world and Skye thought that was a good thing. Until she realized that the justice Hunter dished out was cold and compassionless. So she ran and eventually ended up in New Denver. She moved back into the house she lived in with her grandma and mom. Then Hunter came for her. This is a wonderful story that could appeal to anyone though it does end in a cliffhanger. Highly recommended.

Skye lives in a technology free world, where magic is coming back. I would consider this a YA novel. Her backstory broke my heart and you could definitely understand how she got where she is. I was kept guessing throughout the story, which I loved! Great take on an old legend. This does end with a cliffhanger.

I’m reading one of her ARC books now, The Grave Files, I really like it. I really like her writing style. While reading I feel like I’m in the book. I like when authors accomplish this.
