Braving Fate by Linsey Hall
5.0
Braving Fate by Linsey Hall is the first book in the brand new Mythean Arcana series.
Diana is on track to become a tenured professor, but she's also the reincarnate of the warrior Boudica. When catalyzing events occur, she makes her way to Edinburgh, Scotland and into the arms of Cadan. Little does Diana know that Cadan was her former lover, and he has some secrets that he's holding tightly to his chest. Diana must uncover who she truly is, and complete her fated task to save the world; while trying to figure out what Cadan is keeping from her.
There were so many things about this story that I loved, I'm not sure where to begin. First, I loved that this book contained a well balanced mixture of mythology, paranormal, romance, and action. The characters in this story, both leading and supporting, were well developed and easy to connect to. The emotion and chemistry between Cadan and Diana is sizzling, and comes to life right on the page. While there are some great sex scene in this book, they don't take away from the the true story being told.
I enjoyed this book so much, that the minute that I was I finished with it, I began reading the next book in the series without a moments hesitation. I have a feeling that this will be a series that I plow through and that Lisney Hall will be one of my 'must read' authors.
