BLURB

One lost love.

One lost best friend.

One hot soul reaper.

Straight out of the psyche ward, Cora just wants her life to be normal. She doesn’t want to see souls or the reapers collecting them. The love of her life, the guy she’s loved from a distance for years, has moved away without saying goodbye. So yes, she’s nursing a serious heartbreak. It’s no wonder love is the last thing on her mind when Echo storms into her life.

The chemistry between them is mind-blowing. The connection defies logic. It doesn’t help that Echo is the poster boy for everything she hates in a guy—hot, beautiful, and cocky. A general pain-in-the-butt. Being around him makes her feel more alive than she’s ever felt before. But more important, the souls leave her alone when he is around.

Echo is perfect for her. Echo might even be her soul-mate. There is only one problem. Echo is a freaking soul reaper. A Grimnir. The very beings she wants out of her life. Maybe normal is overrated because Cora wants it all. Answers. Love. A life. You see, once you fall for a Grimnir, your life will never be the same again.


My Review:
* Bookends received a free eCopy of "Grimnirs" in exchange for an honest review *

Loved! This was a very cool book. It was fun and sexy and full of action and secrets and adventure and hotness.
I'll admit, I was a little confused in the beginning with trying to keep track of who was who and all of the different relationships and titles but I chalk that up to the fact that I didn't know this book was part of a series and therefore read it out of order. Once we got through the introductions and the story started to pick up, which really didn't take long, I was totally hooked and couldn't put it down.
I loved the way the entire book was steeped in so much mystery that I found myself mistrustful of EVERYONE. I had no idea what was going to happen next. The story was so unpredictable and I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, so to speak. I really enjoyed the storyline and how it ended. I'd love to read more about Cora and Echo. 
Speaking of Echo, *sigh* <3
Echo is pure literary perfection. The other characters were great too, all of them actually, but if you were to read this book just for Echo you wouldn't be disappointed. He's a funny, sexy, kind, protective, badass...and everything you could ask for in a perfect book boyfriend.
Grimnirs was my first foray into this series. My first introduction to this author actually. But it will definitly not be my last. Great storyline, great characters, great book! Read It!
