Secrets
(Guardian Trilogy)
by Liz Schulte
While Olivia Martin
observed life through her camera, the abyss gazed back at her. She discovers
mysterious men follow her around, people close to her are dying, and her dreams
are no longer her own as she falls head over heels for a perfect stranger. A
chance encounter leads to an obsession that could destroy everything she has
ever known or loved. Olivia is about to find out there is a lot she doesn't
know and sometimes what you don't know can kill you.
My thoughts:
Liz can
really write a dark character that you fall in love with. I was so engrossed
with what would happen next that it carried my happily to the end, where I was
begging for more! I have to say that the dreams were really cool and I loved
Holden. I would have totally given this
book four stars, but there was quite a bit of grammatical errors: words
missing, misspelling character’s (Liv, Livi) and thing’s (Jinn, Jinni) names,
and some confusing sentences. It pulled me out of the story, so I have to give
it three stars, but I really loved the word Liz has created! Excited for book
two!
Note: Swearing, drinking, and a brief sex scene. I would
rate this R, mostly for all the swearing.
Amendment: I talked with the author after I posted this and she cleared up a few things for me so here is what she said, "You mention I misspell some "character names and things" and on that point I would like to note that both Liv and Livi are Olivia's nicknames. Mostly Juliet called her Livi when she is feeling irritated and Liv any other time. And Jinn is the plural and jinni is the singular form of the noun." Thanks Liz for helping us understand those points of the novel!
