Wonderful read
I absolutely loved this book. The characters are rich, the plot is enthralling, the climax is gut wrenching, and the end is amazing. I have access to an ARC copy for zealot, and im going to immediately start it.

Trigger Warnings
This book contains:
• References to, discussions of and descriptions of substance abuse
• Casual sex with numerous people
• Attempted murder and the aftermath of murder described
• Suggestions of cannibalism
Characters
Nicole is the centre of our story and boy is she wild!
Nicole is unapologetically herself in the bluntest, in your face, truthful and persistent way. She has her own thoughts, feelings and opinions and she makes absolutely no excuses for them let alone tries to hide it.
Storyline
Nicole is not the kind of girl who has a clear career pathway, instead, she jumps from job to job struggling to get by without having to borrow money from her parents. But she can’t let this last opportunity slip through her fingers because it’s the absolute last job she can go to without having to move back into her parents’ place.
But Tribec Insurance has weird vibes right from the get-go and weird things keep happening to her both in and outside of work.
Overall Thoughts
I reached out to Carla to get a copy of this after reading the excerpt in the BBNYA competition because I was just absolutely shocked that it didn’t make it through to the final round. While I can understand how it lost some marks in the scoring (there are some grammatical and spelling errors, but not enough to truly bother me, especially when the story grabs me so utterly) I still can’t believe it didn’t make it through.
By the time I reached the end I was so enthralled I had to skip straight to buying the next book in the series because I needed more. The rollercoaster, the questions left unanswered and the hints of there being SO MUCH MORE to what was going on than what we knew was too much for me. I needed the next one straight away.

THIS WAS THE COOLEST, MOST UNIQUE BOOK THAT I’VE EVER READ!!!!!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
To think that this is the author’s debut book, it just blows me away!! It is labeled as Fantasy, but it is so much more than that! It has a little bit of everything. The world building - she writes a world so vividly that i could see it in my mind as if I’d been there. The characters, oh my goodness the characters!! I loved them!! Even the bad ones!! They were just sooo real, so believable!!! The growth we see in especially Nicole’s character is so effective, so moving!! The writing was very impressive, plot flowed smoothly, seamlessly & at a nice pace!! The more i read, the more I could not put the book down!! THE ROMANCE, WOW!!!!! I’d say Nicole has found the one! There was A LOT of hot, sexy guys and some hot, steamy scenes.😍 Nicole must wear some nice perfume, because she was getting all the hot men. Her friend Kara wanted one and couldn’t get him. Anyway this is book one in a series, but no big cliff hanger or anything. Thankfully!! BUT I STILL CAN’T WAIT FOR THE SECOND BOOK!!!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!!!!!

DNFed. I was super confused and not at all intrigued to continue reading. Maybe someday I’ll pick it back up?
How can you not love Nicole Fontane. She doesn't take crap from anyone. She fights her battles in order to save her loved ones. And she's a sarcastic bad ass.
This book is amazing and it's not for the faint-hearted. There are some graphic scenes that you're able to visualise in your head as if you're there and though it's fantasy, it tackles with real life issues.
If you're thinking of reading the book, DO IT! You'll be in a hell of a ride.
I can't wait for the next book to come out!
