Liked each chapter and the cliff hanger ending of each. Couldn't give it 5 stars as I thought the ending was rushed and  almost an afterthought. Felt like the author just wanted to be done with the book.

I continued my adventure begun in the first book. I was impressed by the different story lines and by how the author kept them straight. There was some confusion at first in keeping everything straight in my mind, but that resolved very quickly. The action and the subsequent revelations just kept coming, through pestilence and war. The end of the book came as a surprise; it's kind of a cliffhanger.

I really enjoyed the book because of all of the twist and turns.  The book shows how when it comes to family, we are willing to do anything to protect them. I enjoyed the characters and how they were developed.  The only thing that was a little disappointing was the ending and that is only because it was a cliff hanger, and me being selfish, I wanted to know how all the untied pieces came together. I guess I will just have to wait for the next book in the trilogy to come out.  Anxiously waiting.

I expected it to be cheesy, mainly because I think the title is. However, I think the author has a great writing style and I enjoyed the way the chapters/short stories were woven in together. Every character was developed nicely and the ending was realistic, complete and still hopeful.

Great premise, interesting characters that could be better developed, ending on such a major cliffhanger could be a minus to some readers. All in all, I will gladly and happily buy book 2 when it comes out. Well done and thanks for the trip in your universe.

This started as a small, sexy puzzle that just got bigger with each chapter. I was so wrapped up in trying to guess the who's and why's that I flew right through the book. Yes, it ends with a cliffhanger but the second and final book is out now so please read on!

This was a great read, but beware that there's cliff hanger, so I'll have to get the next one to find out what happens.  I liked the characters and the light sci-fi element. It was very well conceived and written, with a multitude of plot twists that make you just have to keep reading.  I received this as an ARC, and voluntarily left this review.

I enjoyed this book after the first couple of chapters. It was confusing at first, but probably because I was more invested in the Messner family. I especially enjoyed the creation of new family and community. I look forward to reading more of this as well as the follow on to the first four books

This book gets right to the point very quickly. At first, I was concerned that I would like this book because the first couple of chapters are VERY confusing... I get that the author had to set up the back story.... Once it settles into the storyline, man, I was hooked. I can't wait to read the other ones...Leaves you with a little bit of a cliffhanger.

I got this book as a part of the Unearthed Collection, and I was quite taken with the story and the premise.  It started a little slow for me, but what kept me interested and progressing was the exceptional quality of the writing.  I also recognized early on that an origin was being set for a multi-volume story.  I am looking forward to continuing it, there are two other books. My only hesitation to engaging in further books is this story had a cliffhanger ending.  My dislike of cliffhangers cannot be described.  Despite that flaw, I'll be keeping a watch out and once the series is complete, I'm going to read them all.

I did like this book. There were times that I was thinking, how on earth could they have yet another tragedy?!? Then I realized, of course there would be multiple tragic things that could happen, and really the group was pretty lucky overall. As far as readers who are upset that there is a cliffhanger or that this could be part of a series, I was satisfied with the ending. While I completely understand it would be nice to know the outcome, I took away that whatever happens, she has done her best (or what she feels is best.) There were definitely instances where I wasn't fond of the main character - whether finding it difficult to connect or wanting to shake her for her choices - but once again, I had to check myself and think about what would any of us do in the same situation. I did receive this book as an Amazon Kindle First book, and I don't regret my choice.

I like this one and appreciated that the end of the book ended on a surprising happy note.  This was particularly nice given the serious situation Bree and family were in near the beginning and that there were deaths to several secondary characters. I think we all keep reading these because we want to know how things end for Jamie and Claire. But, I have to say that I didn't mind some of the secondary stories as much as I did in the previous books. I feel invested in the lives of Bree/Roger, Ian/Roger, John Grey, and William (and more).  I really can't wait for book 9.  In the mean time, I've started reading all the side books to fill in some of the character back stories.

I liked the way the author described each one's personality.  She kept me in curious . I was happy to read that last chapter

Each chapter ends with a cliffhanger that makes it impossible to stop reading.  Interesting story, intriguing mystery that makes book two a must read!

I received this ARC copy with the promise of a honest review.  This is the 2nd book of 3 and I really liked it.  I like a book with a plot and that moves quickly and this book satisfies both of my likes.  Can't wait for book 3 to see how it ends and traditionally I don't like cliff hangers BUT thats how good this book was.

I had to force myself after 5 chapters, to put the book down because I had to get some things done, but in no time I was back to it. I really enjoyed how the author ended each chapter making you want to keep reading to find out what happens next. Through his characters he was able to show how a person does not choose to be homosexual he just IS, or is not gay. He was able to open up the hearts of each of his characters to help them to learn and understand more about homosexuality and the effects it has on their lives. I think this would hold true for readers as well.
