It's short, it's action-packed, it's got romance...and it's got Dawson and Daemon. What more can you ask for? I really enjoyed learning more about this "family" and the situation they find themselves in because they are so different from everyone around them. Being aliens is not as easy as it may seem. Avoiding the evil Arum and dealing with the DOD seems like a full time job, but I'm glad that Dawson found time for Bethany. Their relationship was lovely. Now, I have some theories about the end of this book that I won't share...read it for yourself and decide what you think actually happened! Great prequel to Obsidian!
