Resurrection by Evelyn MontgomeryMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Resurrection is the first in a duet of books, the second being Awakening. This first book tells the beginning of the relationship between Rose and Justin. They have both suffered a great deal of pain. Rose is still struggling through the depths of loss and grief. Justin appears like a saviour who can help her to overcome her past, but it soon becomes clear that he has as much from his own past to deal with.
I loved the growing relationship between the two. The way that they actually made each other stronger and supported each other as they came to terms with all that they have faced. As the book neared the end, it was clear that something was going to happen to disrupt everything. Not because it was necessarily needed, but more because everything between them had moved fast and there was another book still to come. It was at this point that the whole thing seemed to suddenly change into a completely different type of story.
I have to admit that this ending took me by surprise, it seemed out of step with much of the rest of the book. That said, I'm keen to know what is going to happen next for Rose and Justin.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
