Seventeen-year-old REN PERNELL knows the meaning of tragedy. Or so she thinks.
A year after Ren loses her parents, destiny walks through the door in the form of AXEL KNIGHT—and he changes everything. Strange creatures start to appear, and Ren’s best friend suddenly finds her irresistible; even as the undeniable, unexplainable bond with Axel threatens to drive her insane. Ren knows there’s something Axel isn’t sharing, and she’s determined to uncover the truth. Caught in centuries-old blood feud between races she never knew existed, Ren learns that she’s the chosen one, the Echo, preordained to end the bloodshed.
But there’s a catch—in order to save those she loves and a homeland she’s never knew existed, Ren will have to die. With the clock running out, she’ll have to navigate a new world of betrayal and deceit. If Ren can find love in the darkest of places, she just might be able to escape the prophecy. But what price is she willing to pay?
My thoughts:
I read Dracian Legacy last year and loved it so I signed up for the tour to reread the new version. I wasn't disappointed. I loved it even more than I did last year.
The story kicks off with Ren after losing her parents, and having her brother as the only living relative. Some of the things I loved in this version: Ren is so much stronger. Here she has two guys vying for her attention. She knows what she wants and she sticks to her principles. Oh, and she's kick-ass as well!! Another thing, I really like the worldbuilding and the mythology. Very well thought out and original. Alex is still the gorgeous guy, protective and all round awesome. I really liked the side characters as well.
I can't wait to read the second book in this series. If you're searching for a great YA paranormal romance, I HIGHLY recommend Dracian Legacy.
