EARTH. FIRE. AIR. WATER.

Nick Merrick is stretched to breaking point. He's trying to keep his grades sky-high or he won't get in to college. He's trying to keep his brother's business afloat or the Merricks will be out on the street. He's trying to keep the secret of where he's going in the evenings from his twin brother Gabriel - or he fears he'll lose his family. And he's trying to keep his mind off the hot, self-assured dancer who is his 'girlfriend's' partner.

And then Quinn takes to hanging around his sworn enemy, and an Elemental Guide is counting the hours until he can try again to kill the Merrick brothers. Storms are brewing. On all sides.

SECRETS IN THE WIND. DANGER IN THE AIR.

Pre read Thoughts:

It's nicks story. At this point because of the breathless novella we know that nick is possibly gay. And him and quinn are in a sort of lavender relationship. So let's see what happens.

Chapter 9

Ahh we have Quinn and Tyler is there going to be a redemption arc for Tyler Morgan. Quinn deserves to be happy is all I'm thinking especially with everything she has gone through.

Wow I'm glad he came out to his brothers finally. And Gabriel deserved that all of it. And they all showed up for Quinn and Adam made me so happy. Cala finally made a reappearance. I was debating on weather or not she really was alive but there she is in all her glory.

on to Michaels story.

I am great at my job.

And I'm not just saying that—I have the statistics to back it up. Being a cupid is my passion. Being the best is just the dollop of pink icing on the heart cake.

But none of that matters when I find myself caught up in a battle in the fae realm, helping my boss. I'm about to get hit with a power blast strong enough to end my immortal life when something happens. A fae male steps in front of me and takes the hit.

Belren dies, right there in front of my eyes.

Aimless in my guilty grief, I lose my footing as the perfect cupid. And footing is very important when you're trying to have a superior bow and arrow stance.

Finally fed up with the constant cloud of regret, I got back to where it started—the fae island where Belren died. Yet I don't get closure. Instead, I find him.

But the horned, handsome, and entirely see-through male doesn't remember me at all. And that's when I know that the fates are out to mess up my orderly life.

Because the truth is, Belren haunted me long before he ever became a ghost.

Now, it seems we both have unfinished business.

“Because, I just...I need to think for a second. Just...just stay there. I need a good seven-foot radius of clear thinking space.”

He snorts. “So...you’re incapable of thought when others are in your think-radius?”

I need a think radius sometimes.

He's latched to her, but I think he would have latched to her without the muck in the quiver and she had a glow up.

Finisher

It was so cute, they finally got together I'm so happy for them and such a cute ending.

With power comes enemies. Lots of them.

Hunter Garrity just wants to be left alone. He's learned the hard way that his unusual abilities come at a price. And he can't seem to afford any allies.

He's up to his neck in hostiles. His grandfather, spoiling for a fight. The Merrick brothers, who think he ratted them out. Calla, the scheming psycho who wants to use him as bait.

Then there's Kate Sullivan, the new girl at school. She's not hostile. She's bold. Funny. Hot. But she's got an agenda, too.

With supposedly secret powers rippling to the surface everywhere around him, Hunter knows something ugly is about to go down. But finding out what means he'll have to find someone he can trust. . .

It's Hunter I know he's done a lot of stupid stuff but I'm all for a redemption arc

50% Thoughts

Michael is a such a big brother type and I'm glad that he found a girlfriend. I feel bad for Hunter, but things are turning around. Mainly because of Michael the big brother. Now their all living under one roof, so much testosterone.

Finishing Thoughts

Wow they actually lost someone and it's awful I was hoping hunter would have a happy ending but wow I know I didn't like her but I didn't want her dead. Silver wow not redeemable.
