Weird things are happening to Todd at his job. He knows what to do for people who arrive at the hospital before he ever examines them, and when a terrible trauma case comes in with an extra serving of monster on the side, Todd is able to protect the girl, and his co-workers, with what seems like a dose of real magic. Connor doesn't know why he's drawn to Todd's hospital until he sees the magic at work. Then he knows he has to introduce Todd to a whole world that Todd never knew existed, one of immortal beings, ancient prophecies, and an attraction that neither one can deny. Connor tries to let Todd go over and over, but he just can't do it. He knows he has to help keep Todd safe at all costs, even if it means facing the most dangerous being ever created. Can Connor and Todd face their demons, and their love, head on?
I wont give this book a star rating, because I couldn't bring myself to finish it, and that's pretty strange with me (I enjoy reading, I'll read anything, even if it's only to rant about how bad it was). The blurb made it seem very interesting, but I was very disapointed when I started reading. The story may be interesting, but the writing is awful.
This book has an interesting premise, and a promising plot, but it is not a good read. For lack of a better word, I would describe this book as very monotone. It is almost like Ben Stein took up residence in my head and was reading the book to me in the bland, monotone voice he is known for as a character actor. It really was a struggle to stay interested lone enough to finish the book.
World building: pretty interesting. Plot: good. Writing: terrible.
I didn't finish this, got about 30% into it and quit. The plot and world has tons of potential, but I couldn't handle the poor writing. It got too distracting from the story after a while.
