Review
I received Centaur
Redemption in return for an honest review as part of the tour hosted by
Wordsmith Publicity. (I’m going to try very hard not to give anything away that
will spoil the series.) Cami isn't human but it wasn’t till after her mother
passed away that she found her birth father and learned about her heritage as a
centaur. Since learning that she has a family she doesn’t know exists Cami has
been kidnapped, fallen in love, learned she has a brother and risked her life
to save her family just to mention a few. Cami has stepped into a whole new
world that takes her on adventures that change her life in ways she could never
imagine.
Cami has been on the run since she’s fled her grandmother’s
home with the help of her friends as well as her new brothers she has stayed
safe. She’s even had time to fall in love with a centaur who becomes a true
warrior in order to save her. Cami rushes to the council in hopes of saving her
family who are the lost tribe but her grandmother along with her brother are
determined to stop her, but an unlikely visitor shows up changing everything
even her grandmother plans. When the truth comes out with is change the future
of the lost tribe?
I love Cami and Drake they are by far my favorite couple add
in the fact that they are centaur’s just makes their story even better. Through
Cami and Drakes story we have gotten to know her family as well as her brothers
some of them have even found love which is rare for so many to marry centaur
females in one family. We also have gotten to know her best friend from her
human life before she found out the truth Daniel. I like the way the author has
woven other characters’ lives within Cami’s story I can’t help falling in love
with them as well.
I’ve been waiting since the last book to get my hands on
Centaur Redemption because I’ve been dying to see what happens next for my
favorite Centaur and family. I found the whole concept for the centaurs unique
and exciting it’s one of those stories that capture’s the imagination as well
as the heart. I finished the book in a few short hours knowing I couldn’t stop
till I saw how it would end. I feel the
author has done a brilliant job writing another installment in the Touched
series, her writing flows smoothly. I can see why people can lose all track of
time reading her books. I honestly loved the story it kept me on the edge of my
seat mixing adventure and pulling at my heart strings. I finished the book in
tears some happy some sad but it works and I don’t cry very often that’s how
vested in the characters I am. I was so happy to read that this won’t be the
last book because I know I’ll miss them when it’s the end. If you haven’t read
the Touched series I would highly recommend it. When people ask me for a
paranormal suggestion it’s my first choice because I love everything about it.
I can’t wait for the next chapter in Cami’s story, I know I’ll be impatiently
waiting. Did I mention this is one of my favorite series, and I love it!!!

Author Bio
I LOVE Starbucks’ White Mocha Latte and Mountain Dew, (but not together). I have a lead foot so I set cruise control when I drive, even in 25 MPH zones. I almost never win when I play Angry Birds, but have my 9 year old close, so he can clear the hard levels for me. I grew up on a farm and am opposed to eating fresh chicken (not opposed to meat - just opposed to any meat that was alive a few hours before lunch). I am a huge fan of the show, Big Bang Theory, on CBS. I share my life with two fantastic sons, three rotten dogs and a husband that I adore.
