This is paranormal soup, a little bit of this and that. Nothing really memorable about this, it's pretty meh urban fantasy. The heroine is pretty bland and the author is using some mysterious prophecy to make up for it. 4 guys just cannot get enough of her but there is really no reason for them to be into her other than reasons. It ends on a cliffhanger and since it's KU I'll check out the 2nd book and we'll see if it improves.

It was a slightly entertaining read. But I can’t look past this authors lack of understanding on when to use “your” and “you’re”

And all the men seem to be similarly cringy.

My new obsession are these reverse harem series! OMG I knew nothing about a reverse harem story and now I am obsessed. They can differ in many ways but this style written by G. Bailey is the best! On top of the series love, I found a new book series and Author that I enjoy! I swear I have been in some sort of book slump and not enjoying some books lately.
I love that Winter has a mate from each species type and that each one believes in the prophecy and will do anything to protect her. I am interested to see where the story will go and if the guys bonds will still be there now that Winter is in the picture. A Wolf, Vampire, Witch, and an Angel all fighting for the same girl.... That is a lot of testosterone.
What a great book! I look forward to reading the rest of the series and more books from the talented G. Bailey!

I think this series has some great potential. However, it needs some SERIOUS editing done. The grammar mistakes were hard for me to look over and was extremely distracting. I think some character development and back story was rushed and/or confusing.
It does have a great plot line going. I'm hoping the second book will clear up some of the things I thought were rushed or confusing and that it will be edited much better.

Just finished the series and I’m so glad i stuck with it. Worth the read.

While there were a couple elements that annoyed me in this first book - I thought the intro to Jaxson and Wyatt was not awesome, because frankly they both came across as giant assholes and the last thing I want is to read yet another book with a woman hurling herself at giant assholes - things got better and I like the overall story. It's an interesting mythology, and I'm looking forward to finding out what Winter is because there's just no way she's human.

Second time read.

I will admit, I liked this book a lot better the second time around. I honestly have no idea why I didn't like it the first time.. but things still did end up annoying me. Like the whole mating thing. They either can or can't be mated to her.. but we already know that she's destined to have 4 mates - so what gives?

These guys totally have lives and shit.. but once they meet her aren't they supposed to know she's the one? What's the point in going through with the whole fake mating.. just cause someone said to? Sounds kind of stupid.

Besides all of that, and I know I never mentioned any of their names but that's because I'm evil (and lazy + tired af). However, I will mention my favorite character out of the entire book (so far) and that's freaking freddy! He's adorable and I instantly fell in love with him. I love his relationship with Winter and I can't wait to see it grow. He's going to be a lady's man for sure.

Overall, Winter still annoyed me (a little bit) and some things irked me. I'm obviously going to dive further into this series and give book 2 a chance. I hope it's good.
