Just imagine you awake with no memory in a room full of blood and dead bodies and you just find a note with the word “Run”. That is exactly what happened to the heroine of this book. When she runs into Lannes Hannelore, a gargoyle who hides his secrets well, he is her savior. She awakens something that he never thought possible and he would give his life for her. Together they try to find her past and the truth of what happened to her.
This was my first book by Ms. Liu and I was absolutely fascinated by the whole idea of this series. THE WILD ROAD can be read as a stand-alone, although it is already the seventh story of the Dirk and Steele Series. I am definitely going to pick up the other books of this series.
I just love stories about two broken souls that find solace in each other. Lannes is a tortured hero par excellence, who is haunted by the memories of imprisonment by a witch. He uses isolation and loneliness to keep himself safe, now that he is free again. Altogether, a very special and intriguing hero.
Lethe, the heroine, undergoes quite a development in the story from the broken women at the beginning to a strong character. It’s wonderful to see not only her development but also that of their relationship as the story progresses.
I can highly recommend this book to all fans of paranormal stories who look for a special story that sets itself apart from the mainstream stories.
