I’ve really enjoyed the previous books in this series but I absolutely loved everything about this one!
This story starts off pretty quickly and it never slows down. Everything is moving forward and while the plot is moving toward a final point, each stop along the way is new and exciting. Nothing was redundant, I never skimmed and once I started I couldn’t stop.
I have to admit Serin hasn’t been one of my favorites of the Elementals but then I didn’t really know her. This is her story and I loved that despite her awesome powers and abilities, she was also vulnerable. I love a strong heroine but I especially enjoy one I am able to connect with. Once the hero, Daniel, enters her life she remained the fierce woman she is but I never felt like she was cruel or uncaring as she’s trying to drive him away.
Despite the hard edged drama and the dark magic involved in this story, there was also plenty of humor and moments of lightheartedness. I will never forget Loki and his crazy antics and actually loved watching his own evolution as this story unfolds.
The romance takes a back seat but there was never any question that Daniel was involved more out of personal reasoning than professional as he chases after Serin. You won’t want to read this for the steam level as there isn’t any. But it’s still a heck of a read! The pace is very fast although this isn’t necessarily a short book. And the last 25% of the book felt like it was pure adrenalin fed action. There were a few twists, some I saw, some I did not and the ending sets us up for the next book which should be Earth. I cannot freaking wait!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
The Elementals Book Series consists of four females who represent the elements Air, Earth, Fire, and Water. Each book represents a element & they come with the gifts of the elements & help balance the good & evil in the world. This one is the Water Element & follows Serin as she seeks justice and answers for her mate’s mysterious disappearance.
I absolutely loved this book and it is my favourite in this series so far. This novel is a fast paced dynamic read with a few unexpected twists. With well detailed world building descriptions and details. Brimming with dark magic and action packed moments. A bit of lighthearted humor thrown into the mix. Characters are compelling and resilient. Told in first person dual POV which is my favourite. Looking forward to reading the next book in this series which is Gia’s about the earth elemental.
When I started reading I couldn’t put it down.L.B. Gilbert is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can’t wait for the next book.
It feels like it’s been ages since I was last immersed in this world. So long, in fact, I’d almost forgotten how much I was missing it. This story was such a skillful marriage of urban fantasy with police procedural. It kicks off with a bang and never slows down. I think Daniel is going to be a very valuable addition to this group of unlikely heroes. From his training as a DEA agent to his unexpected heritage, he brings to the table some things Serin and her sisters haven’t had access to before. And the chemistry between these two created sparks I feared would short out my reader. There is just so much happening in this book, and it starts to explain even more about what we’ve already seen in the previous books. The ending now leaves me champing at the bit to get my hands on the next book in the series. On a side note, I adored the quiet little reference tying in one of the author’s other series. Just like all those pop-culture references in the earlier books, it tickled the fancy of my inner nerd-girl.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
