Ember’s Secret (Solstice Quartet Book 1) by Catherine Peace – Review by Mary Espinoza

Ember’s Secret by Catherine Peace
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

So let me just start off by saying, I went into reading this book after reading the 3rd book of the series and was not disappointed at all! Catherine Peace definitely writes in a genre of her own, and it is different, but it is a great different though! I can honestly say that this is the second book that I have read that Catherine Peace has written, and I have not been disappointed either time, I really enjoyed reading Ember’s Secret!
The storyline revolves around two lonely souls that are drawn to one another.
Austin, considered a failure in his father’s eyes, has a great love and a passion for food. He seems to have darkness looming over him but he’s just the light this story needed. His character development throughout the story was beautifully described. After learning about Austin, we are then introduced to
Ember, who has been living in fear, after her mother was killed when she was a child. And her life of fear hasn’t been easy, because of her shape shifting secret she holds dear. Ember’s character really develops throughout the novel.
Austin happens to stumble across Ember’s empty restaurant with phenomenal food because his car troubles landed him there. He sees something within Ember and wants to give her everything! Ember is hesitant as first, but it doesn’t take long for her to jump on board and let’s Austin and his team lead the way. As Austin and Ember grow closer, they have multiple obstacles that keep getting in their way!
