Shades of Wicked: A Night Rebel Novel by Jeaniene Frost
4.0
Ian is... Ian 😏 I'm glad he didn't disappoint, he's as crazy and funny as ever.
Veritas, on the other hand, fell a bit flat in my opinion. She is badass, but that is the only thing I liked about her. There was nothing else interesting about her character. I knew the author would go for a badass female to pair with Ian, but I would have preferred if she simply paired him with a human instead.
I think that can be contributed to the fact that I feel like I've personally outgrown the whole paranormal genre and I prefer to read about character development rather than action, battling with creatures etc.
And what bothers me is that it seems there is always a solution in Frost's world. There is always a new magical trick that saves everyone or a new creature-hybrid that comes to rescue at the last minute and that bores me.
So 4/5 stars for a flat heroine and a huge CLIFFHANGER at the end! I'll be reading the sequels though, because - Ian 😏

OMG finally! Ian's story after years and years of waiting :3 I have high expectations for this one, I hope I won't be disappointed cuz I didn't like this author's recent releases.
