Publisher Description
River is the second novel in this series
He wipes blood from his mouth with his bare arms. "I need you to hold still so I don't feel the need to chase and conquer. Do you understand?"
I feel his breath on my skin. "My chances if I run?"
"None."
I had wondered if I would be strong enough to love Ryder, my stranger from the woods. I learned that I was—still am. But now Ryder, Gunner and I have a young together, Rain, the Princess go the Guardian Warriors. And a very powerful being, King of the Shadow Clones, wants her dead. The only time I ever saw King was in the dream where forced a kiss on me, sending me into labor. Yes, I learned I was strong enough to love Ryder, but with a new stranger in the woods, will he be strong enough to love me?
Author, India R. Adams, blurs the lines between "good" and "evil, between "black" and "white", and shows us the beautiful spectrum on the gray tones. She will make you fall for those darker shades of gray, as well as the lighter ones. She shows us the importance of the balance, and of nature. She shows us the complexity of "human" nature and humans in general... and well elves too. She shows us that every action has immeasurable consequences, and that sometimes certain outcomes are unavoidable. The spiritual undertone in this book is beautiful. —Blogger, The Reading Cat

India has done a brilliant job with this book!
This is book 2 in A Stranger in the Woods series and India has done a brilliant job with this book!
We follow the story of Rose and how she has become a very important woman in this beautiful world, the important roles that she plays and how her and Ryder continue on this journey. We still see so much of Gunner, and it is great to see more of the world that India has created that I want to continually emerge myself in. I did not think that India could make this series get any better but then she goes and writes this and blows it all out of the water.
This book is definitely more immersed in the most amazing feelings that seems to just bleed off the page and into your soul. The way that India writes this for us, allows us to really understand that we as humans make life more complicated in so many ways and that living a simple life can lead to a happier life. Having said that, this woman is basically pulling out chunks of your heart at every other turn and then trying to stuff them all back in.
I will now not so patiently be waiting for book 3. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
This is my honest and unbiased review.
