Blood and Sunlight Forbidden – Twisted Fates #1 - Review
Couple: Jade & Soran
Author: Danielle Cancel
Tropes: vampire romance, hidden heir, found family, save the world themes, PNR, fantasy romance, YA/NA romance, hidden prophecy, enemy to lover
Review: In this debut novel we meet Jade, is a young woman who suddenly finds herself in another world that is full of magical creatures and hidden identities. This book is written in the third person and has dual POV but centers mainly on Jade’s POV.
Jade believes she is human and as she travels through this new world she learns many secrets about herself and those she considers new friends. I loved how this book was not focused as much on the romance aspect but more on the quest for Jade to find herself and “get home”. I found myself waiting anxiously for the next big thing to happen so I could see hoe Jade dealt with it.
Soran on the other hand is a cynical vampire who wants to deny his curiosity and attraction towards Jade. I enjoyed his character and the wit and depth he had. I also thought Danielle created his dark past perfectly and unveiled it at a speed that leaves you intrigued. I am looking forward to uncovering more about Soran in the next book and am anxious to learn how he will tell Jade his dark past towards the crown and the hidden prophecy between them.
This book is a fantasy quest and is more YA or NA in this first installment. I loved how it is a very slow burn story and is mainly enemies to lovers in book 1. I also really enjoyed the bonds between Jade and each of the characters in her band of misfits. Alice ended up being one of my favorite characters outside of Jade and Soran. I hope to learn more about her and her past.
This book ends on a cliffhanger and will create questions about how Jade and Soran will come out on top but is worth the read and wait for book 2.
Rating: 10/10, oh Soran….why are you hiding the truth?
