The White King has crossed the line, sounded the horn, sent out the wolves.
When blood is shed and life is lost the reality of Ari's position as both hunter and prey finally sets in. It seems her father will stop at nothing to force her will to his own and distracted by Charlie's latest mistake and her seemingly misguided attraction to Jai, Ari never thought to fear anyone else but the Jinn King.
Blindsided and attacked, Ari learns a new wolf has joined the hunt. A dark sorcerer believes he knows a way to bleed the power of the Seal and wield it as his own, and he is even less patient than the White King.
The war for the Seal has only just begun. . . and it's time for Ari to turn it on its head.
It's time for Ari to stop acting like the hunted.
It's time for Ari to become the hunter.
Review
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars!
Well, let me just start by saying: Samantha Young, will forever be one of my favorite authors! She has amazing talent that seeps from the pages of her stories, drawing the reader into worlds that are fascinating and unique.
As Scorched Skies unfolds we get little glimpses of all the characters involved, we get to see how they think, which lends a helping hand in immersing the reader into the story. The mystery and intrigue continues from the first book, unraveling some old aspects and starting some new ones. There is never a dull moment. I was constantly in sweet, torturing agony as the romance picks up. I knew who I was voting for the whole time, but the question is: who were you voting for? Charlie or Jai?
We get further introduced to Trey, Jai's best friend, and I must say, he is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters in the story. We also get introduced to new characters, a better look at the 'political' side of the Jinn, have some suspicions rooted more deeply and get a slightly deeper look into Jai's childhood. The emotions are raw as we continue our adventure with Ari as she grows and accepts the responsibility that was thrust onto her. Scorched Skies will have you jumping out of your skin for Borrowed Embers!
There is quite literally no need for a longer or more in-depth review. Fans of Samantha Young will already be snatching up Scorched Skies and if you aren't already a fan, then what are you waiting for? Go buy Smokeless Fire and get started on this amazing adventure that you shouldn't miss out on!
P.S. Go vote for Borrowed Embers to be the next released book from Samantha Young at her website here!
Scorched Skies is currently available at Amazon
