I was thrown into this world going blindly but was pleasantly surprised to find out I liked it. I’m a fan of Savannah Stuart/Katie Reus however I’ve never read this series before nor have I ever read much sci-fi so I didn’t know how I’d feel about this one.

I never felt lost, which means that although this is the third book in the series it can definitely be read as a stand alone. From the beginning we know Lumineta is a world where rescued “humans” were taken after their dying planet was destroyed. Now I don’t know for sure if it was only females that were rescued but apparently some of the humans don’t know all of Lumineta’s laws. One of these females is Leilani, whose employer is in charge of one the expansion projects in a mountain region. When Leilani travels to that region, she discovers that under some Lumineta law, she has to stay because she’s not mated and didn’t have an escort with her. She doesn’t like it but can’t do much about it.

It was fun to read about this new culture and new world, especially when males where depicted as very obtuse when it came to females - that’s actually not too far off when it comes to human males, ha! But I digress- The world depicted sounded futuristic but retrograde in some social aspects, although some of the characters were working on making some changes to make it a better place for all of them. All in all a good story and I will definitely be reading the first 2 books in the series.

Book Description: 

Held captive against her will…

When Leilani travels to the mountain region of her new planet, Lumineta, she discovers the remote mountain clan has a law stating that any unmated female in their sector can be forced to live there for one moon cycle. At first she’s livid—until she realizes that being held captive means that the warriors bring her gifts and simply try to impress her as part of their courting rituals. But she’s not interested in anyone except the sexy leader—and living under his roof makes her feel nothing like a captive. He has her rethinking everything she thought she knew about Luminet males.

The last thing he needs in his life is a complicated human female…

Con has never thought much about taking a mate. As leader of his clan, he’s too busy and females are too complicated—especially those mysterious humans. But the longer he’s around Leilani, the more he realizes she’s worth fighting for. Despite his planet’s tradition that says two males mate with one female, he has no intention of sharing—or ever letting her go.

Length: 31,000 words

OMG! I can't remember the last time I read a book from start to finish in a matter of hours. I couldn't stop reading. I had to know. I knew I wouldn't get any rest. Is this book without flaws? NO, but the fact that it was so engrossing and took over my day, it deserves 5 stars for entertainment.

Insight.
I haven't read Street Lit in over a year. I know it can become stale and redundant but Ashley always brings it. I haven't read a book by her that was lower than a 4 star read.

Find Me is a fast-paced game of Whodunit that (if you’re like me) will have you guessing til the very end. Fans of the PERSEFoNE series and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will enjoy this murder mystery for sure.

What I really liked about this book was the snarkiness of the main character, Wick. She definitely was not a vanilla character. She had lots of spunk and brought an edge to the book. Her sarcasm, plus the way that all of the scenes were written – with this crazy amount of tension – made the book enjoyable and though I didn’t want to put it down, I had to because I couldn’t read it late at night! Too scary! Even though I’m not tech-savvy, I still liked reading about her searching for the killer over the internet. And yes, I couldn’t read it at night even though the tracking of the bad guy was done mostly over the web.

I’m sure that mystery novel experts and seasoned sleuths figured this one out WAY before I did – but I’m thankful for my ignorance because it made the book so much more thrilling.

All in all – a good debut from Romily Bernard that I’m HOPING will be turned into a series. I think I can guess what the next book would be about!
