In His Keeping Book Review

In His Keeping - Maya Banks

Ahh, definitely a guilty pleasure for me. Not the greatest writing out there but I loved the audiobook for this. So much fun. I was never bored and loved the characters. Plus, a fast paced plot made it feel much more like an action book than a romance. 

 

Arie has always hidden her powers from the world. Ever since she was a young baby her parents have sheltered her, afraid what the world would do if they knew about her abilities. Then when she's attacked and uses her powers to protect herself and her parent's are kidnapped Arie's world is turned upside down. She goes to Beau Devereaux for help. Never did she expect to fall in love along the way. 

 

So this isn't the best book out there. The writing is a bit too repetitive for me. I heard the word vulnerable so many times I easily was annoyed. But other than that it was a really fun book to listen to. 

 

I did not read the first one in the series but I will be listening to it soon.  It didn't take anything out of the story as this can definitely be read as a stand a lone. But, I already put it on hold from my library. We'll see if I like it as much as this one.
