Summary

Zoey Daniels has been tossed from foster home to foster home, where she grows up fast and tough. When she is placed in her "last chance" home, she finds a reason to stay and turn her life around: her foster sister, Lexie, who is paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair.

After high school, Zoey is hired by a special government agency, the Department of Molecular Genetics (DMG), where she meets the other reason to remain: Daniel, her coworker. The man she loves. But there is something unique about Zoey. She can see fae. Because of this, the DMG hires her to work as a Collector: catching, researching, testing, and using the fae to save human lives. The work never registers on her sympathy radar. She was raised to think of fae as beasts that feed on humans and want to destroy them.

When devastation hits Seattle, Zoey's whole world is turned upside down. The electric storm connects her to a ruthless fae, a Wanderer named Ryker, whose dealings expose them to even more trouble and danger. They embark on a journey, running and hiding from both the government and fae, both of which threaten their lives and those they love.

Ok

Slow start and confusion at first but built into a fantastic story kept me hooked. Bit like shadow hunters with a twist

Could have been a really good story

Writer failed to bring drama and intrigue to the storyline. Really wanted to connect to Zoey and Riker but couldn't not enough detail. If you are looking for a SMART, STRONG female led try sarah j mass or nalini singh books.

I love this series!!

This story is fast paced, thrilling and a definite must read/listen to. I love Sprig, he brings some light hearted humour at some really tense and inappropriate times 😊. Having read all of the books several times now it was a treat to listen to this book on audio. The narration is seamless and easy to listen to drawing you in from the very start of the book.

Not complete huge ever progressing story line BUT

it's a great little story line with huge cliffhanger for book 2 which I'm about to listen to now. This isent your average romantic side story either with is refreshing. Its a good story line somewhat different also, ie joyed this book but I think book 2 is going to have a much bigger story as there are so many ways this coukd go as its left with quite a few different parts that now need answers and fixing.
narrator very good story for me 4.5 stars out of 5 an looking forward to next listen now.

It’s like Alexa telling a story

Story is good but narration is robotic and is distracting me. Shame about narrator. Otherwise ok.
