Heart Of The Hounded by Grace McGintyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Enthralling Story
I’d probably give this book 4.5 ⭐️ if I could.
After recently reading the story of the set up of Eden Academy from the side of the people funding it, hearing about the Eden organisation made for fascinating reading.
Layla is used to be thought of as the ‘crazy’ in the small town she grew up. She played up to her reputation after she was attacked by wolves and ‘saved’ by a monster. After the death of her mother a naked bleeding man turns up at her cabin door and he seems to know her. This starts Layla’s journey into the unknown world of the super and preternatural.
The naked man is Micah and he eventually leads her to Eden to keep her safe from the men who hurt him on the night they met. When meeting the rest of the organisation she learns more about Micah, his friends and herself.
There’s so much more I could say but I really don’t want to ruin this story because it’s just so interesting reading as it all unfolds. The characters are all wonderful and unique and there are some really genuinely funny bits. There are also some tender and sweet parts. There is passion and anger and friendship and loyalty. It covers all the emotions!
A lot of the world building has been done in previous books, but there is still some construction of supernatural and preternatural abilities/beings, which keeps things interesting. This whole book makes me excited for the Eden Academy series because the characters are definitely going to be in appearing. Some of the younger characters are bound to be in the Academy!
All in all, a book I dove into and didn’t reappear from, until the last page had been turned. A really great story with fabulous writing and enthralling characters. What more could you want?
