Official Review: Hidden Mortality by Maggie mundy

Share This Review
Cara is going through a chaotic point in her life where she is losing everybody that she loves and having strange experiences that can only be described as her losing her mind. Witch-craft, immortality are all thrown at her in the midst of everything else and so is her dream lover. This is a story about love ignited, love lost, and love found again. A book that had me staying up late wanting to know what was going to happen next.
Seth is long lived and only wishes to complete his task so he may die and finally be at peace. His mission is to be protector to his dead lover's descendants until he falls in love over the current descendant he has been watching over. As Cara makes her way into his life, he begins to wish for a normal life or peace and love. Something that both of them will have to fight for. His character was well described and nothing was left out of his background, leaving no questions for the reader to ask.
I really did enjoy this novel, from the description of the locations, to the thought out storyline as the author took you back in time to complete Seth's history and his role in the book. I wasn't left asking many questions and the questions that did come to mind were answered shortly after I thought of them. I found it an exciting read and all my expectations that I look for in a book like this, were met. I was excited and really felt connected to the characters.
As for what I didn't like here wasn't much of anything. Grammar was pretty good, there were a few grammatical errors throughout the book but not to the extent to become annoying and make the book unenjoyable. However, I did also find it predictable, guy gets the girl, they live happily ever after, but as with a romance it has come to be expected and the storyline built around that predictability was unpredictable and made for an exciting story.
I give this story a 4 out of 4 stars because I really did not want to stop reading. I was excited and could easily empathize with the characters. If the book were available in a traditional book format I would definitely be adding it to my list of books to buy. I highly recommend this book to all of my fellow readers, who love action, mystery and a perfectly played out romance.

I appreciate you comment about the happy ending. My daughter read it and nearly killed me when she thought they would not be together. You have to say though that I don't make it easy for them. Thanks again.

I believe the traditional predictability wwith the twist was just perfect! It worked out so well I think.
I will more than likely buy a copy, I like to buy books that I really like.
