The Initiation by Elena MonroeMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
The Initiation by Elena Monroe is
book 1 in ‘The Four Horseman’ series which introduces us to new characters
Grimm and Abigail. Grimm is secretive, dark, and unapologetic. The story pulls
us into his world as we see what he has to do for his ‘family’ and what that
means in the long term for his mental health as well as relationships that he
has with others. Enter Abigail, a girl who knows her self-worth, has sass to
the maximum and who also recognises Grimm’s monsters since she has her own.
From the first time Grimm meets her, she owns him, even though he may fight it
and do things to push her away.
The book is full of twist and turns, mystery
and some sexy scenes with a slow burn which keeps you turning the pages to find
out more. If you’ve read Ms. Monroe before, you know that she is becoming a master
of suspense and drawing you in as a reader. There is a lot going on in the book
and you are introduced to a whole host of characters that play a part in making
Grimm who he is and push him to make decisions which sometimes go against who
he is….what the Clave are willing to get him to do to Abigail is one prime
example. But the build up in the relationship between Grimm and Abigail is what
makes this book special. It’s not a cute HEA, but rather a raw, often dirty,
and twisted kind of romance which makes this book a great read.
It will be interesting to see how the
rest of this series goes and how all the threads come together.
ARC received for a
