Book Description:
Ever wonder what Levi was thinking in FLIGHT? Find out in the two Levi POV novellas FIRST & FOREVER. This combined edition includes both FIRST (previously released) and FOREVER, a brand new novella.This edition also includes the bonus short story: The Royal Wedding.
FIRST
Levi's got it all. He's a paranormal prince with more money and power than he knows what to do with, but something is missing—a mate. He only has until college graduation to find her. Allie's perfect but she wants nothing to do with him. When attraction becomes something more, will he take a chance and show her who he really is or will he lose everything?
FOREVER
Levi's almost out of time. Allie's the one, he knows it in every grain of his being, but how can he make her see it? Desperate to keep Allie safe and at his side, he takes the biggest risk of his life. Reckless or not there is nothing he wouldn't do to keep her with him... forever.
I am a huge fan of the Crescent Chronicles series and of the spin off so of course when I was given the chance to read yet another book all from Levi’s point of view I jumped at the chance to do so.
This is one of my most favorite paranormal series from Rose. It is so well written, suspenseful, and full of wonderful characters, both main and secondary that are hard to forget and have a nasty habit of burrowing deep into your heart.
What can I say about this other than it was fabulous? I love getting to see Levi's point of view (usually the stories were told in Allie's) on all of my most favorite (and romantic!) scenes.
What was even better is that we get to see the wedding! Yes, the wedding. Oh my gosh, it was wonderful and made me smile the whole darn time I was reading it.
Once again Rose delivered. She gave me everything I could have asked for and them some. She also reminded me once again why this series is in my top ten and why I love it so very much.
