Book Review: Fang And Claw By Evangeline Anderson

Fang And Claw
(Nocturne Academy #2)
By Evangeline Anderson

Genres: Paranormal, Young Adult

My name is Kaitlyn Fellows and I’ll never be the same.

The Fire stole everything from me.

My home…my family…even my beauty.

The right side of my face is normal–even pretty. But the left side, I hide in shame. That’s where The Fire marked me…scarred me forever.

At Nocturne Academy I’m nothing–just a little Norm girl with no supernatural powers and a disfigured face.

Which is why it’s so strange that a big, Handsome Drake like Ari Reyes should take an interest in me.

But it isn’t only Ari who’s interested in me.

For under his high cheekbones and clear amber eyes, he hides another, much more frightening visage–A Drake, the fire-breathing monster that lives within him.

A monster who has decided I should be his alone.

Can I survive Ari’s love for me? And more importantly, can I survive the love of his Drake?

Because once a girl has been claimed by a Drake, the only way out is through The Fire.

What am I going to do?

My Review:

* I received a free eCopy of this book when I participated in its Book Blitz with Xpresso Book Tours. My review was an optional part of the event. All opinions stated in the review below are my own.

This book was SO good! Even though it had a slow and steady pace it felt like it flew by. Everything seemed to have had a purpose instead of all the filler that was present in the first novel. This series is getting better with every book!

Kaitlyn was the most interesting character out of the coven of outcasts and I'm so happy with how her story was told. I won't lie and say that it didn't come off as preachy in some sections but the heart was still there. Beauty isn't skin deep, positive self-talk can help you and you are worth it, if someone tells you otherwise that's a them problem not a you problem. I loved how her biggest reason for hiding turned into her amour. I was SO very afraid of the author healing her up and calling it a day, but that was far from what happened.

Ari was so sweet, gentle, and patient with Kaitlyn and I adore him for it. He tried giving her all the time she needed to accept her new reality and him in her life. I liked how he would defend her and stay by her side even if it meant being exiled from his family/world. I was rooting for him from the beginning and I'm glad that things worked out the way they did.

The ending was violent and amazing! I didn't see it coming but boy was it good! Now, I'm really interested in getting to see more of Saint. He needs his own book. I need to know all the nitty-gritty details of why he is who he is. Emma's story is the next story being set up and even though I'm not super invested in her as a character she seems interesting enough that I'll be checking out the next book in this series.
