Untainted ( The Crystal Island book 1)
By Lilian T. James
⭐️⭐️⭐️

There were several things Vera was quite skilled at. Wielding a blade and pretending to be human were two of them. Following the rules and controlling her anger, were not.

Raised in the heart of the Matherin Empire, Vera spent most of her life forced to hide what she was and what she could do. Until one day, she foolishly confronts a strange male she spies tailing the Crown Prince.

Not only does the altercation not go as planned, but the male claims she possesses a power his people vitally need. He’s desperate to return home and refuses to leave without her.

Staying would give her a life she never thought she’d have but leaving could provide her with the only chance to learn more about her past.

The more answers she uncovers about herself, the more questions arise, and nothing is adding up. Vera must decide what to do, not only with her life, but with the ancient power inside her.

It was good but definitely middle of the road and similar to a few books I’ve read. It was an easy read it just lacked a little spark.

Does anything really NEED to be said that hasn't already been said about this series? We see many individual characters with both positive and negative traits. We see we see a relationship built and tested and questioned. We see "villains" who are also victims of a system. We see many negative aspects of our own world amplified to the point where it becomes blatantly obvious in the hopes that we may be able to change them.

Well done Collins.

This is the third book in this series by this author. I have only read this book in the series but I'll definitely be going back to read the others to get a better understanding of the story. This is a action packed, roller coaster of a ride book. This book will take you on a emotional ride with some of the scenes in the book. The characters are just perfect, a strong female mixed with a alpha male. I can't wait to read more in this series in the future.
Highly recommended

OMG, what a read, this book had me smiling, laughing then crying all at the same time. This book just sucks you in from the first page, keeping you hooked till the very last page. two amazing characters which were perfect together. The male character is definitely swoon worthy. This story is told in dual points of view by both main characters, I love this cause you get to understand both characters. I can't wait to read from this author in the future.



Highly recommended
