Gentle Scars by Willow Winters
4.0
Gentle Scars is book #2 in the To Be Claimed Saga. Just like Wounded Kiss it's multiple POV, and it was mainly navigated from Lizzie and Grace's perspective of the following events leading up to this book. There was also Devin, Dom and Caleb's perspectives as well. However, there are two other characters' perspectives in Gentle Scars: Veronica and Vince's, he was briefly mentioned in the previous book. I enjoyed reading Wounded Kiss, and I was looking forward to reading Gentle Scars. The synchronization of events flowed smoothly in this book!! Although, I'm not a huge fan of multiple POVs (more than three) but in this series it's definitely needed! Because of Willow Winters' writing technique the multiple POVs didn't tire me at all. The change from one perspective to another tied in so well with one another; their stories intertwining together. Hence, it made my reading experience more enjoyable to read.
Wow! I just loved reading Veronica and Vince's perspective! They are two very dominant characters and two different supernatural species. And their friendly banter and the chemistry between them my goodness. Vince and Veronica sure did enjoy playing games as they challenged each other. Dominance oozes out of Veronica, hence she's not afraid to take control, in fact she demands it. I mean, she literally brought Vince down to his knees. Vince isn't someone to be submissive, yet he yielded to Veronica, and he didn't mind it at all. Grace stubborn as ever wasn't afraid to go head-to-head with Devin, she definitely kept him on his toes. Grace was already trying to navigate through turbulent waters. Her life drastically changed, hence she was thrown into another world that she had little knowledge of. As Grace started to learn new information and rules you could say that she felt overwhelmed. She felt at lost, like she was loosing the control of her life. Ahh, Lizzy my heart broke for her! She was still afraid to acknowledge her past, coming to terms with how it deeply impacted her. The scenes featuring Caleb, Lizzy and Dom it was just too hot to handle. But the ending!! I couldn't believe my eyes!! I was like no, it cannot end that way! Veronica can be seen a strong character, yet she has a vulnerability and this was revealed in the last few pages. Ahh, need book #3 soon.
