About the Author:

Michelle Graves is a self-proclaimed nomad, moving every two to three years with her husband the Army man, her beautiful daughter, and a fat tailless cat named Torri. When she is not writing away trying to purge her mind of yapping characters she can be found entertaining her daughter, attempting to craft (whilst trying not to injure herself with the glue gun), baking yummy treats, or reading. She admits to having a restless spirit and forces her family to go out on adventures whenever possible. They lovingly play along.

My Thoughts:

This series is going to be awesome. See How She Runs drew me in right away and kept my attention until the end.

Izzy has basically been lied to. Her memories were altered at a young age. The important people in her life are not really who she thinks they are. Everything spirals out of control after one impromptu meeting with a creepy man. Nothing in her life will ever be the same again.

My only complaints are that some parts felt slightly rushed, some could have been a little more detailed or fleshed out, and I would have liked to see more romance. What can I say? You know how I feel about romance. ;-)

There was lots of intrigue, suspense, and action. There was real promise between Izzy and Kennan. I hope we get more in the next book. I will be reading it for sure!

I recommend this book to anyone looking for a something different. It is not the usual urban fantasy. You'll find seers and guardians not witches, weres, and vamps. :-)

I received an ecopy of the book in exchange for my honest opinion. I thought it was really good.
