A review by covall
Taken by Midnight by Lara Adrian

4.0

This was a really good book. This is the story of Jenna and Brock. The book starts with the ancient from the previous book asking Jenna if she wants to live or die. She was debating killing herself when the ancient had found her and fed from her to the point of near death. He then made her chose if she would like to live or die. She chose to live and he put something into the base of her skull. Whatever this something is, it has given her some strange abilities, so the Order takes her back to the compound.

I liked the dynamic between Brock and Jenna. She is human and not a breed made, which is what we have seen in all of the previous books, so to me, this story seemed a bit of a re-boot for the series. The author wasn’t following the same set of rules for the story format, which is good for me. I never really liked it when all the books in a series tend to follow the same pattern, which is why I tend to like books with more than just romance in them, like this series. I love how Jenna gets pulled into the Order and offers her help (she is ex-police) and the story progresses for the hunt for Dragos.
