Ashton, Brodi Everneath, 384 p. Balzer + Bray (Harper), 2012. Content: G.
For 100 years (or six months in human time), Nikki has been caught in the Feed. She should have wasted to almost nothing, but somehow she managed to stay almost the same as when she went in. Instead of going straight to the Tunnels for eternity, she has been allowed to Return – to go to her home, where she has six months (100 years in EverNeath time) to say goodbye. But to return home means she has to confront everyone she left behind – her best friend Jules, her boyfriend Jack – her heart. When she is finally able to trust again, maybe, just maybe, there is a way for her to defeat the Tunnels and remain with those she loves. But Cole, the Everliving she Fed, is not willing to let her leave; he will sabotage or coerce her in any way possible to get her back.

Let's face it - there have been WAY TOO MANY paranormal romance books published lately. So, I was very ready to be all skeptical as I started another paranormal romance with a “girl in a gown” on the cover. Instead I was literally swept away into an amazing story. Yes it is romantic, but it is not just romantic. Yes it has supernatural beings, but it is the humans that remain in control. Bravo Brodi Ashton!!
