Review of ATouch of Midnight (Novella):
A Touch of Midnight takes place in 1974 and begins with Savannah and her friend Rachel doing some extracurricular work for one of their professors at Boston University. Savannah is taken a little aback when Rachel is attracted to the professor and ultimately ends up going out with him. Oh well………. But, when Savannah shows up on campus for class the next day and sees the police, she knows in her heart something has happened to her friend Rachel. Of course, we know that Savannah is a Breedmate. All Breedmates have a special gift. Seems Savannah’s is the ability to touch an object and see it’s past. So, when she touches an object from the crime scene, she sees that Rachel and Professor Keaton were attacked by something that wasn’t quite human and has no idea how profoundly her life is going to change. Factor in the huge and hunky blonde man with the British accent, and she’s in for the ride of her life.
Having been a fan of Lara Adrian’s for a long time now, I can’t tell you how happy it makes me that she has finally told us Gideon and Savannah’s story. Gideon is The Order’s IT Guru and doesn’t go out into the field with the other members of The Order, in search of rogues preying on humans………..And, now we know why! Gideon has been a fan favorite for years and folks (and me) have been clamoring for more on how he and Savannah came to be mates, and, oh what a story it is. It had just the right amount of background to fulfill any fan’s quest for more things Gideon.
I do feel the need to say that the Companion Guide was very well written and very easy to follow. I actually found out a thing or two that I’d either missed, or forgotten. A must have for any Midnight Breed fan. Very well done Lara Adrian, very well done!!!!
