Praise for this book
"My Soul to Take" introduces readers to a captivating world where a Soul-Eater named Skotos and Nova, whose aura holds a magnetic attraction for him, embark on a journey fraught with danger and intrigue. Initially, the story felt sluggish, lacking depth, until the moment they flee from Brandon, which ignites the narrative's momentum. Nova's quick trust in Skot, despite reservations, resonates, perhaps fueled by Skot's undeniable allure.
The backstory of Skotos and Brandon's curse was a bit fuzzy in the beginning yet K. A Masterson discloses it further in the book. The constraint of their soul-eating dynamic added a layer of complexity, hindering their physical intimacy.
Skot's enigmatic nature and his profound connection with Nova were highlights for me. His understanding of Nova's inner turmoil, expressed through physical touch, was particularly compelling. I wished for more depth in Orion's character, whose protective instincts mirrored those of my own siblings.
The scene where Skot's college friend requests an end to his suffering was poignant and authentic, showcasing Masterson's ability to evoke raw emotion. The tension-filled escape through Greece provided riveting entertainment, making me yearn for a similar adventure.
While I entered the book without clear predictions, I rooted for Skot and Nova's eventual union and the lifting of his curse. Despite initially skimming through the first chapters, I found myself engrossed in each subsequent chapter, drawn in by Masterson's captivating storytelling.
The emotional impact of the narrative, particularly in the portrayal of Skot's friend's plea, left a lasting impression. Masterson's writing style, reminiscent of her previous work "Witches' Accent," proved thrilling and enticing, resonating with Nova's relatable skepticism and thirst for discovery.
In conclusion, "My Soul to Take" delivers a thrilling, enticing, and exciting tale that grips readers from start to finish, despite initial pacing concerns and some character dynamics. It's a testament to Masterson's skill in crafting compelling narratives that leave readers eagerly anticipating her next work.
absolutely enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to the second book. This story is dark and spicy. The sexual tension between our two main character will keep you on your toes and you will not want to put the book down. The story of Nova and Skot is so amazing, it just draws you in and you can't help but want more. I recommend grabbing a copy of this book.
