But all bets are off as a supernatural war is unleashed. To save her family, and maybe the world, she'll have to trust Zayne. Zayne has secrets of his own that will upend her world yet again-but working together becomes imperative once demons breach the compound and Trinity's secret comes to light. Not least because one of the outsiders is the most annoying and fascinating person she's ever met. When Wardens from another clan arrive with disturbing reports that something is killing both demons and Wardens, Trinity's world implodes. If the demons discover the truth about Trinity, they'll devour her to enhance their powers. Her gift is part of a secret so dangerous that she's been in hiding for years in an isolated compound guarded by Wardens-gargoyle shape-shifters who protect humankind from demons. Eighteen-year-old Trinity Marrow may be going blind, but she can see and communicate with ghosts and spirits. Come On! I kept hoping Ren would just be knocked off so Ivy could get on with her extremely predictable but somewhat interesting story.Enter a world of gargoyle protectors, rising demons and one girl with an explosive secret.
Death is not the only option folks! And the children of members aren't the only possible recruits for your organization. It's disappointing when you can think of alternate and BETTER resolutions than this supposedly CIA of the Otherworld can. Also some elements of the story don't seem plausible. He overlooks some pretty serious flaws in his logic so he can fall in love. But the quick romance she forced between Ivy and Ren sort of ruined it for her.
I actually think the author had a good setting and setup. The main issue for me is that their conclusions and decisions are both completely predictable in one instance and illogical in the next. Even romance needs to have more suspense. But in good smut the couple usually have a lot more friction and discord before they realize their sappy soggy lust for each other. So I will try to ignore the ridiculously sappy deep conversations with sexual undertones and corny "That's What She Said" type jokes that dominate the interactions of the two main characters of this book. So I gave it 3 stars instead of two because that part is my fault.
I was looking for more Fae based stories and the New Orleans setting peaked my interest. Part of my discontent with this story is that I didn't realize it was mainly a romance.
