Well this is the first one in this series where I actually recognised Perth in the descriptions. I enjoyed that about this one. I also enjoyed the poor tortured hero who basically had to remember how to be human. The coincidence of his lady love's mother being killed by goblins was a little hard to swallow but meh!

The writing was nicely done and it was a good wrap up to the adventures of the celtic warriors but even though I enjoyed each book very much I couldn't help feeling like something was missing. Perhaps the whole paranormal in Australia doesn't ring true because I live here? I don't know, if you had the power to live anywhere in the world would you choose Perth? I know I know, you Perth people will start denouncing me now. Don't get me wrong Perth is a lovely city but can you see it as a hotbed of paranormal activity?

Anyway, not sure if that was what it was or whether it was something else but I did like the series enough to write a review and that is all that counts isn't it?

Meryn was cursed to be a goblin warrior and now he's out of the shadowlands he has to learn how to be human again. Nurse Nadine Gilbert has lived with the fact that her father killed her mother. Little does she know the reality of the event, that there were goblins involved and in fact her father is innocent. He's near the end of his term in jail but she wants nothing to do with him. How will she react to the former goblin? How will he cope with the modern world? How will he cope with humanity after years of being a goblin?

I got this one from Goodreads as an ARC in a Giveaway and I was very happy with it. It was a good read, a satisfying read that pulled me along and kept me reading well past my bedtime. I would like to read more in this series to find out more about the world and the other characters, while it was a book that stood well on it's own, there were things I knew I missed from not reading the others. Occasionally it did feel a bit rushed but otherwise I enjoyed it.
