Bite The Bullet by C.C. Wood Review

4.5 Smooches

Synopsis

I don’t know what happened to my life.

Just a few months ago, I was independent and had an exciting job I loved. Now, along with my friends, I’m in hiding.

Why? Because I’m one of the Five, a group of human women bestowed with powers and abilities to fight and control supernatural beings. A prophesy was written about us centuries ago. We are supposed to save the world, though none of us knows how.

Now, Cornelius, the leader of a malevolent group known as the Faction believes that by killing us and absorbing our power, he will become unstoppable in his bid to control not only the supernatural domain, but the entire world.

After evading capture and an attempt on my life forced me into months of hiding, I finally have a chance to take action against the Faction — as bait.

Asher Leroux, the vampire tasked with helping me, makes me feel things I don’t understand. It’s as if he fills the empty places in my soul, spaces that I didn’t know existed.

As the final battle draws closer, I know that defeating the Faction won’t give me back the life I once had, but maybe that’s not such a bad deal after all.

Review

‘I was the only one still single. Not that it bothered me. Alpha men were sexy in books, but more of a pain in the ass in reality.’

While I am so sad to see this series end, we have been building to this moment from the start and CC did not disappoint. Asher and Shannon’s story has been long coming and much awaited. Desperate to see how Shannon’s powers developed and what role they would play in the final battle to set the five fully free, I was very eager to start this book and could not put it down once I did.

”Though I’d only been around him a few times, Asher stirred emotions in me I’d never experienced before.’

 As a sensitive, Shannon is learning to trust her hunches and when one of those hunches leads her to living with the sexy vampire Asher nothing is ever the same. The more and more she is around all the supernatural the more her powers strengthen and develop. It doesn’t take long for her to see the way out of the massive ordeal the girls are in. The 5 girls are back together and show us the definition of strong heroines.

‘I wasn’t sure what came over me, I liked sex, hell, I loved it if the guy was right, but this was something different, something elemental.’

Epic fights, a sexy love story and characters we all now truly love this book was just what I was hoping for. I have loved this whole series and all these couples deeply and while I am sad to see it all end I am excited to see what C.C. brings us next.
