About the book:


Savannah Colbert has never known why she's so hated by the kids of the Clann. Nor can she deny her instinct to get close to Clann golden boy Tristan Coleman. Especially when she recovers from a strange illness and the attraction becomes nearly irresistible. It's as if he's a magnet, pulling her gaze, her thoughts, even her dreams. Her family has warned her to have nothing to do with him, or any members of the Clann. But when Tristan is suddenly
everywhere she goes, Savannah fears she's destined to fail.
For years, Tristan has been forbidden to even speak to Savannah Colbert. Then Savannah disappears from school for a week and comes back…different, and suddenly he can't stay away. Boys seem intoxicated just from looking at her. His own family becomes stricter than ever. And Tristan has to fight his own urge to protect her, to be near her no matter the consequences….

Review: 

Ok it's official I CRAVE FOR MORE CRAVE!

I was surprised at what this book ended up being about. Tristan the way he acts toward savannah it reminds me of Edward from twilight, and how protective he is over Bella. But don't worry for those who didn't fall in love with the saga. This pretty much where the similarities end.   

This present day Romeo and Juliet story takes you on an adventure of the supernatural.

With witches and vampires galore!  I won't go into details as I am anti-spoiler.

The only issue I had with this book is the length. They could have cut out a good portion of the middle and had more action. The last few chapters is where everything happens. So they could have cut the first section to around 150 pages then had a really good story with the rest. So parts of it felt like it was be drug along. Don't get me wrong I LOVED seeing the romance play out but really we know they love each other so let's get on with it.
