 I started this one because I was stuck on the side of the road with a nice hole in my tyre and my choices were limited. (but also because I really wanted to read it and that was THE perfect excuse to jump ahead with the reading plan.) 
 I really enjoyed this book. However, I discovered that some of the background characters are from her other series were in it!! Which is terrible, now I need to read that whole series. No fair Dianne. 
 I found the writing style really fascinating, it was old-y world-y word-y and I really had to think about the ages! I thought it was well paced, though when 'separation' two came I did wonder at the draw out factor, but despite it feeling that way it was actually a pretty big part of the plot. While I was impatient to get on with the plot, I do wish they had more of the 'before' relationship though because that's when all the feelings started to change. Respect, realisations etc. 
 I found the premise really interesting - which is obviously why I read it in the first place, but I also liked how it was executed. While reading it there were a few things I read that I thought critics would pull apart, but I don't remember what they are because, instead of noting them, I was preoccupied with actually reading, because that was what I was there for... 
 I liked both Dillon and Alyssa but I also liked Robert, I'm looking forward to his story in book 2. I would also like to say at this point that if you haven't read the other series, that's fine for this book but the second apparently involves a time traveler and I think the first series is set more contemporally than this is so there may be more of a cross over later. 
 I cant wait to find out more about the gifted ones, either in this series or the previous...because I may have bought book 1....
