This
story was a little hard for me to follow at some points. Maybe it would have
helped a little to have a more clearer vision of what the "world" we
were following Phoenyx in looked like a little more. That is just my
opinion though.
When we meet Phoenyx, she is a young lady that is waking up in a strange
place to her and has no recollection of how she got there or what happened with
the murders they are sticking on her. The people think that she is just playing
dumb, but she honestly has no idea what they are talking about. When they
banish her to an island, Phoenyx has to learn about what her powers
are and how to use them. She also has to do a lot of soul searching within
herself to figure out who she is exactly as well.
Phoenyx has to learn who she can trust and who are the people that she
needs to stay away from. When she falls in love, one guy ends up breaking her
heart only later to come back and steal her away from the guy that has helped
her get over that heart break. Phoenyx gets confused and has to
figure out what and who she really wants. She has had a rough past with her
father being the way he was and causingPhoenyx to have trust issues with
people.
Overall, I thought that this story has a little bit of everything- romance,
suspense and action. I think Kolleen Fraser is definitely one to watch for with
her writing.
