Review of Fractured Immortal (The Bearwood Series #1) by E.L. Wicker
The Bearwood Series Book 1
When Ilia discovers he’s run to the one place she's running from, she’s forced to face her most painful memories back in her hometown, Bearwood.
There, Ilia finds herself face to face with Nathaniel, an insanely hot vampire, and despite the evidence he’s working for her enemy, Ilia can’t fight her attraction to him, especially when he seems to show up whenever she needs him most.
But Nathaniel is keeping secrets and as they begin to unravel, instead of running away from him, Ilia finds herself falling for him. When his last secret is revealed Ilia’s past comes together in a way she never imagined and she’s left with only one option: trust Nathaniel to help her kill Sol, or risk relinquishing her new found strength thus causing catastrophic and devastating consequences for her and everyone she loves.
Ilia begins a gut-wrenching battle to save her life and the lives of her friends, a battle which not everyone will survive.
A vampire tale like none other, love, pain, devastation and revenge, all weave together to create the first in a dark and unmissable new adult series.
Due to sexual content, this book is intended for readers age 18+
Shawna's Review
Fractured Immortal is the first book in the Bearwood series by E.L. Wicker. After over two hundred years of running from her horrific past Ilia Rose must go back to the one place she never wanted to return to, and see the one person she never wanted to see again just to catch and kill the one man she thinks started it all. It isn’t until she meets the handsome Nathaniel that her true past comes to light and the things she thought she knew about that horrible night really aren’t what happened and the world as she knew it is gone, replace with an uncertain future but a future she knows she wants to share with Nathaniel and her friends. Her version of that horrible night over two hundred years ago may have changed but her friends versions have not and Sol is not only a murderer but now with an evil witch by his side can potentially hold the power to not only destroy her, her friends and the man she loves but the humans in the world will be in more danger than ever. Ilia and her friends must do all they can to ensure this doesn’t happen. Ilia and Nathaniel are not only connected by the love that has grown between them but also by a magic they never knew existed. As they learn the truth about their gifts can they be strong enough to fight Sol and Selena or will they fail all of the people they love and lose the battle?
I really liked this book; it was able to grab my attention and keep me wondering what was going to happen. There were a few instances where I thought that it could speed up a little but for the most part It was great and I can’t wait to get started on the second book. I’m not fond of cliffhanger endings but it wasn’t bad in this book. There was an ending to the book, it just had a little twist to it, a twist I am glad was there. The way the characters are in this book reminds me of the Mortal Instruments, where its main focus (other than the evil they are fighting) is on a girl and the man she loves but her friends have their side stories during the series as well. There are a few things that I still have questions about, like Lana and her past really aren’t talked about but with more books in the works I’m hoping it will eventually come out.
4 out of 5 stars
