A review by gypsydawn
Fearless by Crystal Ash

4.0

Mariposa, our no longer reluctant Heroine and Medic, is fully immersing herself in the Steel Demons lifestyle, enjoying the nights with Reapers while exploring the possibilities with Jandro. That part of this Reverse Harem is melding well, offering the characters a chance to get to know each other, and to love. There is also Gunner and Shadow, who each bring with them their own drama, past and difficulties - issues that Crystal Ash manages with both heart and understanding. I enjoyed seeing a potential member of a Harem with issues ABOUT being in the harem - instead of just jumping at the chance like everything is normal (as many books do, no aspersions.).... and don't even get me started on Shadow!

The PNR aspect I caught glimpses of in the beginning is brought into more focus here, though it is still not the main theme of the story. That happens to be the drama of a post-collapse world, the joining of lives and the mystery of who is really working against the MC. The paranormal is a side note.... though I have a feeling it is going to become MUCH more important after that final, cliffhanger scene.

Pros:
~ Well written.
~ People who actually have issues with a Harem type relationship.
~ The characters are growing and slowly exposing themselves to the reader.
~ Well edited.
~ Hades and Horus... plus that cliffhanger. Interesting times ahead!

Cons:
~ Left overs from Book 2 linger here and leave a bad taste in my mouth.
