Flight
(The Crescent Chronicles #1)
by
Alyssa Rose Ivy


First - The Blurb:


Sometimes you just have to take flight.

A summer in New Orleans is exactly what Allie needs before starting college. Accepting her dad’s invitation to work at his hotel offers an escape from her ex-boyfriend and the chance to spend the summer with her best friend. Meeting a guy is the last thing on her mind—until she sees Levi. 

Unable to resist the infuriating yet alluring Levi, Allie finds herself at the center of a supernatural society and forced to decide between following the path she has always trusted or saving a city that might just save her.



Second - The Tease:

Pulling me into his arms, he trailed light kisses from my ear to my neck, almost making me forget how late I was running. I pushed him away. "You better stop that, or we’re never getting out of here."
"My thoughts exactly." 



I found this book a little slow to start, but once it got going and some of the mystery was revealed, it began to become a whole lot more interesting.

After experiencing one failed relationship after another, Allie swears off the opposite sex and heads down to New Orleans to work in her father's hotel over the Summer. Of course, she does not travel alone. Jess, her best friend, who is also very flirtatious, accompany's her. 

Barely settled into their new home, the two girls soon learn that New Orleans is teaming with hot guys, one of which, has very quickly set his sights on Allie. Allie tries to ignore him, but Levi is persistent. Seeing Allie and her 'no guys' rule as a challenge, he pursues her relentlessly, and eventually, begins to break down her resolve.

But... Levi also has a secret. He is a Pteron, a Supernatural being. Although he is willing to share this information with Allie, there are many secrets he keeps from her, and as the list of secrets grows, so to, does her distrust of him.

Overall, Flight was an intriguing read. I enjoyed the story and will be checking out the next book... Focus, to find out how Levi manges to win Allie's trust back.

My rating: 4 out of 5
